Nice bet that cheered you up, shame some of the best plates out we can't get on older cars.
Think you've got one of the best. Likewise with jas. |

That's an ace plate, I prefer it when the plate refers to the car than a misspelt 'Dazza' or the like! |

I have had a bit of bother with the car
The engine mgt light came on soon after I got the car - got in touch with the garage - Western Motors Car Deal Warehouse - who arranged for their Audi service centre to check the car it turned out to be a disconnected vacuum hose. No big deal - or so I thought.
Shortly after that I noticed oil & coolant lying on the driveway - back to the garage. It seems that turbo oil seals, cam cover gasket and some cooling part at the back of the engine had blown because of a build up of pressure problem.
The warranty company weren't interested - but to be fair to Western they took the car in and repaired it once i explained that the fault must have been there when i bought the car and that the earlier "disconnected hose" was actually a sympton of the problem.
The car is driving really well - my daughter (Lynne)has recently started work down near Berwick Upon Tweed so have had a good few runs down to help her get her flat sorted - getting nearly 40 to the gallon at near legal limit (lots of speed cameras) to curb my enthusiasm.
Although i got a bit less than that on Monday when i got a call that Lynne r had been in an accident - a Shogun ran straight into the back of her Mazda 323, she is a bit sore but generally okay although we heard today that the car is beyond economical repair - no real surprise but a bummer as she really loved her car and has no money saved up for a replacement.
Got a 6 cd changer fitted into the glovebox (came from a Skoda Octavia but identical to the Audi unit) - very neat installation.
I then saw the number plate and well you know the rest!
Next step might be K&N filter and eventaully a trip tp STAR Performance for their 195 bhp chip!
Are you having any luck selling your A4 ? |

Yeah well chuffed - the parts manager at Stirling Audi was a big help with the plates- maybe you know him |

Jim @ STAR is worth a visit... remap really transforms the way that engine drives. Make sure the oil is spot on and CHECK the hoses please please. Jim is fussy and will likely pull a rolling road run to make sure its pulling ok to start with. |
