Really need to stop spending.......



Sold the roofbars from the A3 and the Roobox company knocked £50 off and added free delivery for a new set so these have only cost me £80  :smiley:

Treated it to its first wash in a month of ownership









First time I got to really look at the paintwork and its in a sorry state :( been through far too many car washes in its life time so it needs a good machine polish to bring it back to its former glory

A month into ownership and i've covered over 1000 miles. Performance and comfort are 2nd to none; MPG is a bit of a shock :whistle2: but it is steadily improving as I'm still very much learning how to get the best out of the gearbox and engine. Its a very different drive to the A3

All in all I'm happy :)
