Where did you get that spec from ciarsd?

It's stunning!

hooch-85 · 23-04-2019 12:00pm

Agreed, cracking looking 4 series.

It's absolutely gorgeous, the kind of car that could tempt me to ditch my indicator stalks and jump to the dark side

Finally got the plates for my car, they look well happy with them but may screw them on now.. tape I got is a bit **** and back one is off again. Have double sided 3M will give that a shot.

When putting them on needed to clean the bumper and old adhesive off so just gave the whole car and wheels a full wash and quick tyre dressing for tyres and trim.... The day before I took it to Mondello....:rolleyes:

Needless to say he car is dirty again complete with lots of rubber and bugs stuck to the front and wheels... Really should have just wiped down the licence plate spot... waste of time :pac::pac:

The Honda plate surrounds are a little much for me, the car is already pretty busy in the styling department :pac:

How did you get it to Australia?

Duke O Smiley · 23-04-2019 1:25pm

Its great that they got rid of the dreadful 120xxx for Dublin imports. That number looks a million times better

I'll agree with you there but I do like them

The metal plates came bare so needed a plastic backing to protect the paint. I like them more than a plain black one or dealership ones.

I'll accept the slagging for it:D:rolleyes:

The 120xxx was only ever for cars 2010 and older. 2011 and later always had the next number in the sequence. Same for every other county, like Cork is 40xxx etc.

Have been dailying this now for 2 years today, still absolutely in love with it, few bits of tidying yet to do including replacing those trash generic mats that have been in it since I bought it

SBPhoto · 23-04-2019 10:11pm

Finally picked up my A6 SLine, only 6400k on it when i collected it, delighted with it so far, need to give it a good wax soon.

Wailin · 23-04-2019 10:30pm

Well wear SB, nice looking car.

masterboy123 · 23-04-2019 10:41pm

Lovely wheels you got there.

Any pics from the interior?

And how many bhp? Quattro?

Thanks, appreciate it, although I cannot take the credit for it. I imported it last June as is. Previous owner who now sits in an F82 M4, spec'd it well from factory to start with. Then the carbon fibre M Performance goodies (and wheels) were fitted by Bavarian upon delivery from factory.

Hahahahaha, thankfully them flashy stalk things were spec'd so it'd be an easier jump for you :P

No more nails tape (red one). Never once let me down. Clean down the surface your mounting the plates too (degrease, then alcohol wipe) same for the back of the plates. Then place approx. 2" strips across the back of the plates top to bottom at equal intervals. You can pickup a roll in any decent office suppliers or Woodies / B&Q have it on occasion.

Serious car envy here!

If you wanted to keep the clean look, you can get plate surrounds that have a proper backing. You screw the surround onto the bumper and the plates then fits into it. I have this on my own car:

Not to everyone's taste but if you don't want to drill holes and put screws through the plate, this is a good option.

Been lurking here a while.

Picked her up Saturday morning, told it was the first sold in the country? Lovely bangs and pops from the exhaust. Baseline 20i but plenty of go for me.
