So just a small update - only thing I've been dossing around with is alloy wheels the past few months.
Bought a set of genuine A5 19" Rotors that had been refurbed fully in anthracite from @ruairi83 - got them because they were a different fitment to the A4's 19" Rotors and hoped these would fill the arch gap nicely.
came with winters and of course only got 1 real day of snow over in Dundonald - definitely sold on the idea of winters though, as I was able to tear around with enough grip to have fun while remaining within the kerbs.
In the end, I wasn't a fan of the 1 colour anthracite and felt it didn't match the chrome look that the rest of the car had, so Cobra Customs refurbed the Peelers in hyper silver and put Pilot Spot 4 S all around.
Also bought H&R 10mm Hubcentric Spacers spacers for the front and 12mm for the back from @ruairi83.
Have got it booked in with @RubberLover this Friday to get a full wheel alignment done but other than that, I haven't really done much to it apart from service it!
Still loving how smooth it is when driving around town and then how quick it can be when you want. Exactly what I was after! Keep thinking about a remap, but really, it's more than quick for what I need, so perhaps next year
Now to paint that fence, de-moss the garden and clean that algae off the render!
