It was still Audi Misano red when Weddy had it in the not too distant past and it certainly still looks that way.

You stood there taking pictures of your car when people were driving past?

It absolutely needs to get some MHW's back on it. Not a fan of those rear lights. I happen to have a great set for sale

Blast from the past. Remember seeing this at a rolling road day about 6 years ago when Fad had it then.

PS Parada Spec 2 tyres are shite

Definitely needs standard rear lights or a set of MHW's on it! I put a set of MHW's on after the feature and it looked much better.

Id lose the mudflaps personally. The Magnex oval has gone too, suited it perfect!

Be nice to see it all tidy again hopefully.

Agreed. It looks pretty sorry for itself compared to how awesomes it looked when you had it.
Looking forward to seeing it back to its former glory.
