I've a soft spot for them too. Someone at work had a V60 R Design, lovely looking car.

I've seen a few Leon ST Cupras for sale too, must be 1/4 of all the Cupras I've seen lately. Golf R estate looks well.

A4 Avant is another one.

Only a few make the estate nice. BMW, Audi, Skoda, Audi and my favourite Alfas!

Given the fact you listed Audi twice I think you're trying to tell us something :pac:

A4 is in the rental class I have for when I'm home in September. Wouldn't mind trying one but if they only have the 420d again I won't be too upset about that either :cool:

I was over in Leeds for the weekend and saw three of the new Cupra estates, they look very well with the Copper badges and wheels in a silver/grey colour

Out in Howth a few days ago, I have still to paint the rear wheels.

Another year done at Le Man's, never get tired of driving the bits of public road which make up the track.
2nd trip for the R to France and once again she never missed a beat.
On the low end of the scale compared to the other metal around the area there but that doesn't make it any less fun

Long overdue wash:

Holy sheeeet that looks good

FFS, that's the perfect car for this weather!

That Z4 is stunning, saw one recently enough and it looks even better in the flesh. Sounds great too.

Upgraded a good while ago to some 255/35/20 PS4S from 245/30/20 conti sport contact 6s. Some old and new pics for comparison with dirty wheels...

Very noticeable increased ride height and ground clearance

Did you sell the VRS?

So you enjoy your day at work, to then go to your car and find that some piece fo **** of a scumbag has done this and legged it.
Camera that was directly above the car didn't capture the moment it happened and the other camera had something blocking it so no recourse here except out of my own pocket.

Another one from touring Kerry

bear1 that is poxy.... Some serious a holes out there...

Wonder was it a thick that doesn't know the size of the car and if you were standing there they would run you over too and never have seen a thing.

The picture doesn't make it look at bad but it's fecking annoying.
Had the cameras reviewed at work but just my luck, the camera that was directly above my car faces the other way so it caught nothing.
The other camera can only see the roof of the car and is too far away and also has something blocking the view.
If anything the company should be reviewing where it puts its cameras if they aren't worth jack **** in an emergency

Have this a year now.... Very happy with it after 32k kms...no issues thankfully. The 19s and sidesteps do wonders for them IMO. Sorento isn't a handsome yoke TBH.

Bye bye GTI, sold 3 weeks ago and found Saturday

Similar thing happened to me a few years ago after selling a C180 Merc. Not an enjoyable experience..

Awful to see nevertheless

Was it stolen after being sold?

Wow how times have changed. Garda standing near a burnt out car. Back in 80's and early to mid 90's it was a common thing to see burnt out cars.

330i collected this morning

Lovely car F34. What's it like to drive? Hear the chassis is superb in them by all accounts.

Truckermal

Nice car but it's destroyed in swirl marks, I wonder is the owner a member of a Ethnic group as I was looking at a 530D at that dealership and their was 5 of them sitting in that car over in the lot plus the kids were sitting on the Bonnet......:D

Cheers yeah I’ve come from a 430d and the driving experience is very different much tighter than the 4 across all driving modes and so very quiet on the road.

Apparently it was used in a driveby shooting a few minutes away. Didn't even try to hide the car...

Gardai don't give a ****e either.

That was a great joke (I think) that I didn't realise was a joke this morning until F34 replied

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000

After a long long time of having no car after the 330e I finally found a suitable replacement...apart from the extortionate tax that is. Ticks all of the boxes, touring, msport, auto, diesel and a complete sleeper of a car with 315 BHP...and most importantly it's unmolested. It's an absolute BLAST to drive! It's not everyone's cup of tea bit it's exactly what I was looking for.

It honestly feels like a new car until you look at the interior and realize its very very old, have plans for this one...

Would it map up to 315? Seems like a huge gain but maybe there are other suppprting mods

Mine is the updated (ie newer) version of that engine.

BTW Hunky - if that rear wiper is normally like that and it's not just in the middle of a wipe, remove it and reset in on the splines so it's flat and level with the bodywork. The way it is is driving my OCD mental :pac:

I have it fixed already! And now to get my key recoded as it sets off the alarm every time I unlock the damn thing. There’s a few niggly bits on it but they should all be done this weekend. Nothing major at all. Only passed its NCT days ago.

Yeah I read there’s plenty more power to be made but it’s not worth the hassle. It’s fine the way it is. I’m doing no more power wise to it but it will get a front brake upgrade. I’m also having squeaky ball joint bushings issue so I’ll have to get under there and somehow get grease into them.
