New track rod assembly and alignment done.

New ate discs front and rear. Ate pads front and rear. Not cheap as this big lad has bigger discs. And new PS4’s on now.

Driving a treat

Decided I think it’s time for a change for me and maybe something smaller.

Any interest pm I may take a bit off for forum members. But need a reason return considering I put new tyres and brakes and tie assemblies on there. The best brakes and tyres I could buy as well.

Car flew through mot Jan no advisories.

Hi folks

I’m not in here much but I appreciate this is where the real folks wrt to the d3

I have been dailying this w12 since 2020 and it looks like I need to part with it

Unfortunately I think my starter has give up and I’m led to believe it’s a pig of a job labour wise which I really can’t justify at the minute

Posting on here encase anyone would like her as she sits before I consider nastier things which I really do not want to do ( part it )

It’s such a comfortable car and when I look at the cars for sale today and the seats and interior the pale in comparison to the a8.

The car is Northern Ireland - but the electrics are in fine and braking all still working so it could be lifted and loaded .

Thanks Chris
