 Same here, can't wait, although I still have plenty of things to clear from my ToDo list. Respray, remap, coolant leak are next bits I want to tackle. Last time I've been in North Berwick/Jedburgh area it was around 9 years ago for few days and I liked it very much.

 I thought I will just mention again the fact of Audi finally getting the position of oil cap right as it should be

So, it's been exactly a year exactly since rescuing the beast and putting her back on the road after extensive amount of work.
Shortly after getting her all shiny a gazebo has badly scratched my both passenger doors and the chrome strip running along the roof. I'm trying to stay away from resprays now, so It's been a while until I managed to source both doors in Daytona Grey with original paint. In the meantime I have also bought few other bits and it looks like I will ''celebrate'' 1st year of ownership with even more work being done this month. Here is the full list of things to do: - tyres with new TPMS sensors and valves (already done) - replace chrome trim along the roof - replace both passenger doors inc swapping the wiring loom from Bose to B&O - replace 2 door handles - replace all 4 top door chrome trims (found an easy way without removing the window frame) - 1 already replaced - replace all 4 soft close latches for newer version (3 of them currently not working - replace all double glazed door glass (3 are showing signs of de-lamination, something I have noticed only on S8's with black tint version glass ???) - 1 already replaced - replace both alu mirror covers due to few deep stone chips - already done - swap Sport all leather seats, front and back, for Sport Alcantara seats (middle part only). Rear seats are electrics (lumbar support only) so will have to wire them in. - service inc. engine flush, 2 oil changes and fuel filter and windscreen wipers - replace all 4 Ceramic brakes, discs, calipers inc new bleed valves with dust caps - I've got a full set of Ceramics with 60k miles less than mine, that's good enough reason for me to swap them. - replace both AFS II LED DRL Bi-Xenon headlights for a pair of identical lights but with 60k miles less - stone chips are one thing, but you'll be surprised how much brighter and whiter are the LEDs on the new pair - already done - replace alternator due to slight coolant leak - replace front suspension arms and anti-roll bar All parts are already in the garage so all I'm missing now is few days to get it all swapped. It's a lot of work so wish me luck. Any advice in regards to any of the jobs ??
