AvantSE Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Been lurking on here quite a while now and posted the odd, err, post... Thought it was about time I stuck some pics of my old barge on here for all to see and poke fun at When I got the car it was completely standard apart from alloy dash/door/console trim, sport steering wheel, heated front seats, heated mirrors, centre armrest. I have since had the black bits colour coded and added a set of RS4 replica wheels (18") and a personalised reg. I know it needs lowering, but the nature of my work precludes this at the moment. Having said that, when the time comes to replace the dampers and springs, it will get dropped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvantSE Posted May 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Not quite got the hang of this picture attachment thing. Here is the one with the wheels and colour coding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvantSE Posted May 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 And another recent one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvantSE Posted May 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Bought the car this January, it had just over 98K on the clock but was cheap. I was running a company Astra at the time so decided to opt for a car allowance instead as it was the only way I could get something halfway decent. Since then I have done about 12K miles, having started using it for business on 1st Feb. A few jobs needed doing when I got the car e.g. gearbox mount and a couple of new hoses, and I also got it serviced and the cambelt/water pump done. It has cost a fair bit so far, but I intend to run it up to 200K if I can. Watch this space... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian_C Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Nice. The coding and alloys transform it! Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvantSE Posted May 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Ta, I know it's hardly in the league of some of the cars on here but it's the first Audi I've had and I wouldn't go back to anything less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UBM Posted May 14, 2006 Report Share Posted May 14, 2006 Yes - the colour coded bumpers and new alloys make it seem like a completely different motor! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drewcam Posted May 14, 2006 Report Share Posted May 14, 2006 V nice AvantSE. Don't know why Audi didn't colour code these as standard Enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvantSE Posted May 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2006 It's weird, I always thought the Crystal Blue (not that you can tell from the cameraphone pics) looked a bit "blue rinse brigade" but I really like it now it's colour coded - there aren't many about in this colour.
