Nice audi mate I do like

[Wardy]

:eek: - that's a bit of change! Bet you got a decent deal though, with it's MPG and the looming tax hike

Whats the acceleration like?

[ant1]

Whats the acceleration like?

Bit slow :D

Completely effortless, smooth and more importantly, fooking quick.

[Wardy]

I've just hope it's suitably secure and tracker'd

I know certainly round here, they sometimes have a habit of disappearing and being used on a few quick smash and dashes

It's really safe where i am. I have parked my old Evos in the same place plenty of times. Not only that, we do not suffer from drunks at the weekend or ANY KIDS

I'd still scrub your numberplate from the pics...

Not bothered

[ap0gee1978]

Not bothered

There's several ways of interpreting that, but I'd hate for it to go walkies and then your insurance company to present you with the pics along with a letter saying they won't cover your loss since you didn't take reasonable steps to protect the car from theft...

[IainsTheName]

I'm sorry but if that were true then no company would insure anyone, as it's quite easy to go outside and take pictures of numorous parked car's numberplates :confused:

Dude i have owned 12 Evos, 2 M5s, 1 M3, S3s, TVRs and so on in the last 4 years and posted hundreds of pictures of them across the internet. Not once did i have a attempted theft. You are talking complete rubbish so don't embarris yourself any futher

[mluton]

So jealous its untrue, what a jump in a motor.

Exactly.

One of my pet hates is seeing pictures of cars on the net with their number plates 'daubed' over or wiped out.So many thousands of people see your numberplate on your car when you are driving anyway!:confused:

[cheezemonkhai]

I prefer to have my numberplate taken off, however I can't see an insurance company being able to refuse a claim just because there is a pic of your car on the net with it's reg plate.

If a person knows the area to recognise it then they would have seen the car anyway.

That's like saying by taking your car into London or a car park anywhere you should have known there were potentially more scummy people so your car was more likely to get nicked.

Assuming the OP has given the at risk address and full details of the car accurately then what grounds are there for refusing a claim?

Personally I'd make sure the car was alarmed and tracked if I wanted to keep hold of it but then it's not my car. Would be a shame to see such a car stolen and trashed though.

While I might agree with your point the spelling might help

Also 12 evo. 2 M5, 1 M3, multiple S3 and TVR's over 4 years....

Either you are exaggerating/talking carp, you're a car dealer of sorts or the motor industry and insurance industries must love you.

[cav]

Wish you had this when I collected the Fabia. Simply awesome.

How long you planning on keeping this one for?

Trying to work and type is not a good combo I change cars roughly 4 -5 times per year hence the reason why i have owned so many cars. You want to see my photobucket account 30 pages of cars

And no im not a car dealer. Cars are my hobby and my passion. There is not many performance cars out there under 40k that i haven't owned.

But here are a few!

FQ400

600bhp 2.3 stroker Evo. Owned both FQ400 at the same time. One for work, one for the weekend + track.

400bhp IX GT

420bhp IX GT

390bhp Evo V

E39 M5

400bhp S3

VX220 Turbo

245bhp Cooper S Works

210bhp Track prepared 172 cup (one of my favs)

And the list goes on..................................... :P

[cheezemonkhai]

So you fancied a break from high performance and so had a fabia for a while then?

[Captain Sisko]

Quite a collection

[mluton]

Do you rob banks, hence the performance cars and lots of them.

Great motors there mate.

[ant1]

So you fancied a break from high performance and so had a fabia for a while then?

Nope i owned the 600bhp black Evo up unitll 2 weeks ago. Fabia was used for work, Evo for the weekends

[WeirdKerr]

Nice motor.... love playing with that on GT4 (the RS6 that is....) ....

Yes it is, but then if you (a third party) have already seen the car to take pictures of it, then you already know where the car is. By posting like this, though, you're saying 'I own an RS6, and this is where I park it. If you want to nick it, you know where it is; if you want to clone it, you know what the VRN is.' Don't come running to me, etc. etc.
