Cheers, I found one in the States ages ago but again no response form contact made....prob not in business anymore. That's a hell of a lot of venting if it's a standard car
One thing we have to watch with big alterations to the bonnet is that air flow does go as planned as I know al or can cause massive drag don't draw air in or don't let it out either (plus there will be plenty of air drawn in, we just need heat to escape) Side vent ideas are only an aesthetic option as without cutting inner wings to bits and fitting ducting they would be useless

 

 

C'Mon Pat you must have some updates for me now, the suspense is killing me ! 

 

have you had any progress from the body shop ? and have you had any feedback from the propshaft guys ?

Hey guys.....several times I've contacted the propshaft people and very to the point yesterday. A month on I'm still waiting for him to do what he promised to do at every call or email.....I'm still waiting on the bodywork, still waiting on the trimming and still waiting on the brake components promised....
So trust me when I say your Audi dealership experiences and lead times really aren't that bad !!

Time to look at my options and possibly even an exit strategy....we'll see eh

Customer service really has gone to shite in this country, zero accountability and consequence has led us to this.

I know mate I do know.....I can't push Andy anymore than I am and he's between a rock and a hard place and I get that....it's the others that really pi## me off
I don't like being treated like I'm some mithering idiot who can be messed about and pushed around.....

I'd have bailed a long time ago or more likely been arrested had it not been for this forum but I am getting close to both at present with some

If you do get arrested , can I use your M3 to make sure its looked after and does not get flat spots on the tyres

 

and the engine gets turned over frequently

 

Only a true mate would offer to do this for you !!!   :D

In contrast this was N322 major Spanish road and 2nd one a weekday afternoon on the main ring road about 20km south of Madrid !!

U.K. Roads really do suck
