The interior is looking a little sorry for itself at the moment.



All trims have been removed and dropped off at the painters ready.


With the trims out I found this left over earth cable. The wondering of what they had is getting to much. I'm tempted to take the lower trims out and have a nose.

There's a old concrete jetty that you use to be able to drive on and get some cracking pics but they blocked the access off so you can't get to it any more which is a shame.

No trims yet.
Popped up on the weekend to do some jobs for them and started looking at difference colours again, which don't help. They have some really nice subtle flakes in which I like but I feel it will be the wrong finish for the 8. so I'm sticking with the blackish colour.

Picked my dash trims up monday on the way back home.
Spent monday evening fitting everything back together ready for a pre-work refit of the trims.





0700 this morning I was up fitting the trims in.















No more wood.

Nothing else is really going to happen to the car from now till the wedding.
It will get a clean and booked in to Audi for a AC service and a general service.

Nice work, I too am not a fan of wood trim and its one of the reasons I bought the S8 as I was originally wanting a 4.2 TDI

But counldn't find one easily with all the toys and trim level that I wanted.

Be interesting to see how you finish holds up with daily use.

Like the look though Scott

I will let you know if anything bad happens to them.

I'm Inters and should be at AITP this year.
So be nice to put some names to faces.





More LED goodness

Booked in with Audi today for a interim service and AC service.

See what their checks come back with. I'm not looking forward to that.

Probably nothing as they don't seem to check the whole car unless you specifically ask them too.
