  • I'll be very interested to hear your thoughts on this one, do you like it or do you hate it?
    I actually think it's quite cool, I'm just not sure on the red alloy wheels!

    wider tyres will be for the rear , the clown who put them on was smokin crack

  • @Welsh_YETI
    @Welsh_YETI หลายเดือนก่อน +20

    That's a tool for a flymo, the orange one. For changing the spacers for the blade.

  • @camau3
    @camau3 หลายเดือนก่อน +21

    Having different sized tyres on one side to the other "could" make the diff work harder than it should and you could be in for a massive bill for a new diff if you continue running the wheels in that configuration.

    Joe. The one big drawback with this motor is the road tax

    Hi mate, great vid. I’ve owned an A5 and now an RS5 so I know a bit about these cars.
    1) the flat bottom wheel is an upgrade from a facelift S5 (value £500). The OEM one is round.
    2) the curved plastic piece you found near the spare wheel is to cover the boot hinge.
    3) you can probably get the window surrounds re-wrapped black for approx £250.
    4) I would swap the wider tyres to the rear 👍🏻.
    Lovely cars but I think the mileage, tax and general running costs may put some ppl off. £7.5k all day imo 😄

  • @toms4097
    @toms4097 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

    Oh you do spoil us! 👌🏻 On a Porsche the brown leather is a very costly & rare option. I think the 285/30’s are clearly meant to be on the rear. It’s hardly modified, if anything that exhaust will just let the engine breathe with ease. Looks like it’s been well looked after. I would definitely sort the red out on the wheels but keeping costs down. These reviews of cars that come in are a good job! 👍🏻

    Wicked value for money, me personally would do the alloys in silver to go with the mirrors & get the trims back in silver but keep the little kit and get rid of that spoiler and just put a lip one on make it oem+. Great video though loving the drone shots keep it up!

  • @dan44zzt231
    @dan44zzt231 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Really like this. I'd probably do the wheels Gloss Anthracite, remove the decals and paint the calipers dark red to match the interior. I've always found that modified car owners (mostly) look after their cars, nobody's going to spend thousands on mods then not look after them.

  • @golders99
    @golders99 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Just spray the wheel barrels in gloss black for £10 for a spray can. No need to refurb the wheels at £300+.

  • @scotty6346
    @scotty6346 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I would remove the red side decals, Get the wheels powder coated in a nice dark graphite and put a chrome Audi oooo grille badge back on to break the black up a bit IMO.

  • @dangosypethau
    @dangosypethau หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Great looking and sounding thing. Th only minor thing that I would like to modify would be to do the wing mirrors all black. I can see it as your daily driver though with Berrow V8 Motors sign all over the car for that section of your business! Enjoyable video. Was convinced you were going to stick your OBDEleven in it though somewhere during the video (assuming it can take it)!

    @henrykravitz468 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    It's a great-looking car and something I would own. Even the auctioneer, knew it was you buying it, as he said "Yours Joe" ♥ I think he may be a fan. I think one of the previous owner has looked after that car. Would Audi not have any service history on their system for the vehicle? Great Video and content.

  • @TheGalifrey
    @TheGalifrey หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    That needs a good de-chav, silver trim, lose the red stripe and paint the wheels silver, will look so much more appealing.

  • @NorthWalesPiscator
    @NorthWalesPiscator หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    I’d have it. Sounds mint.Keep the wheels as they are knock a couple of hundred quid off for the new owner. It’s not over the top modded but the £735 road tax is a no go for many.

    • @andywalters7300
      @andywalters7300 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

  • @EnglishLaw

  • @dave_listener
    @dave_listener หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    The tyre situation, I would say it has had a puncture on the front, the space saver may not fit the front, Hence why one of the wider rear tyres were put on the front, the space saver on the rear. Then someone else just put the wheel where the space saver was on the rear.

  • @Piner5074

    I’d hold back on the red inside wheels, some may actually like it a lot. Those that don’t just use as a discount and either change your self or some money off. But I’m guessing who ever buys it will keep it as it is. Loving the the interesting cars now

    The tyres were probably put on by mistake and easily missed I guess, but seems someone took some pride owning it and made it theirs. Not to everyone's taste but at least they enjoyed their car and in a sea of dreary grey SUVs it's quite cool I think.
