Rubbish the mk6 is a fine looking beast.  Mine in black with the red grille stripes looks plenty mean enough for me, and I love the look of it from the back, imho it is a massive improvement on the mk5 back end at least the bumper is in the same colour as the main body and not a great big lump of matt black plastic.

I'm glad I've got a big lump of matt black plastic.  It saves the paintwork from idiots that cannot park.  I live in a terraced street and I've seen a couple of idiots nudge into my car whilst parking and setting off.

On a similar note, I think the Mk6 could do with some door protection strips.  I bet owners will be seeing more dents from car parks in the future.

You can buy them as dealer fit extras. Never sean the point of painted ones myself like our mk5 has. Most modern cars no longer have them its a style thing :wink:

As a result all Audis look mean in your rear mirror


really?  i think they look sh1t, i certainly never move over for an audi, unless i see an rs badge or s-line trim.


You move over for the badge and trim?  :laugh:

clearly you stopped reading after this line.  if someone wants to go over a ton on a road where the coppers like to sit i'll move over for anyone.  not interested in getting banned from driving.
