Hi forumites,

So after 6months and 10k kms of ownership I guess it's time for me to introduce this lady to my people. My fellow petrol and diesel heads... Meet Audrey.

She's a 2007 Audi A3 2.0 Tfsi with 208k kms under her belt. She is Luke warm (for now). I'm starting to fall for this girl BIG time.

Here is some pics

Those wheels are shit :skit: you should sell them to me :blowheart:

Jokes aside, this is a beauty bud, really bulletproof if maintained.

Ensure the following:
* Cam follower replaced regularly
* Cambelt services have been done with the full kit with the rollers
* The latest version PCV valve is in.

Really a fantastic car.

Oh and the spacers will mean nothing without a drop.:thumbs:

I also have a set of Speedlines but I want another because i am selfish :biglol:

PCV is important because one day you will be driving down the road and bam no power and you think blown turbo but its just a r500 valve.

I cant stress cam follower enough though. its like R395 or something but I would recommend replacing the cam follower with every service from here on out.

Annnnd yessss on the low. looks like the car is running stock ride height, an Eibach or H&R kit will kill that wheel gap nicely and make the wheel pop so nicely. I think those speedlines are 8j et47 if I am not mistaken and with the drop you could still run a 12mm spacer with no rubbing and it will look sooooooo goood.

The Follower is cheap, the cam shafts are expensive. The follower sits just behind the HPFP and is faily cheap and easy DIY. Cam follower failure is disastrous.

The Wheels are made by BBS, they are from the speedline range. BBS makes a whole lot of wheels for various manufacturers and quite a few for Audi.
Your Wheels are OEM and IMO one of the best wheels on an A3.

Are they 18" or 19"? Either way your wheels are 2 piece split wheels. I have a set of the 19" variant
