Word travels very quickly around here.

Will post results after I have had a 'quick nap'. (I think it is my age......or the noise of Dion's exhaust)

The Audi's are indeed nice and get very good write-ups for build quality, etc, but they generally say stuff about vague steering (even on the RS models) and that they are like driving a very powerful designer suit.....lovely and comfortable, well made, stylish, etc, etc, but not what you'd wear to go jogging down your favourite A & B roads!!

I'd love an S4 ......RS models are beyond my reach. (except RS Turbo's eh?)

Morning peeps

Is anybody interested in a navagational treasure hunt on Easter monday, details here.......http://www.tynemouthmotorclub.co.uk/ look in Treasure Hunt. http://www.tynemouthmotorclub.co.uk/...mouthTHunt.doc
It is going to be a fun event aimed at newbies, with all the easy stuff, and no time penalties. Starting at TDMC clubhouse at 5pm (you need to be there at least 30mins before) lasting about 100 miles (nearly a full tank in a Scoob).
My son (11) is navigating for me, so it would be ideal for your wife, girlfriend, partner, son, daughter, even mother!!!!! to navigate for you.
If you want, the route will be marked on a map on the clubhouse wall for you to copy, all you would need to do then is follow what you have marked, and get the clues.
It should be a great evening.
Clubhouse is at 336692 os map 88 onder2:

See you there

Paul
