Cheers V8growler!!!

Definetely aftermarket then but it looks so tidy I am really impressed!

I already got all that now, spent all day Sunday washing, claying, 3 stage etc. This weekend going to use my Porter Cable to bring the best out the paint! I love polishing cars!

Cheers for the warm welcome. This forum layout takes a bit getting used to tho...

...what a hot looking piece of meat you go there. I love how the European models all have TVs at the back....not too sure about the velvety thing...but maybe it feels nice...does it?

It isn't standard on European models at all! One reason why I bought it you see

I don't even have kids! Our lass loves it though, I feel like a piggin chauffeur!

Velvety thing is alcantara sports seats. They are superb! Cool in summer and warm up quick in winter as I have heated seats all round! It grips you so well and doesn't feel sticky like leather. My Dad has the same seats in his A8 and loves them too!

Default Growler: where can you get a 4.2 N/A chipped?

I'd pay to have 20 more hp, I think many of us would!

I've asked just about every mfr. here in the US, and none of them do it, because there's not enough of a market they feel.

Default Superchips. Although it is actually 15BHP not 20BHP as I remembered, but at

£499 (about 1000USD) it is loads of $$$ for just 15BHP.<ul><li><a href="http://www.superchips.co.uk/models.php">Clik me and fill in the car details</a></li></ul>
