Oh, and I liked the colour as well. :-)
How about another VO but with a black roof this time? :whistle:

I am hoping to have my money back by the end of the week. Audi have said all the right things but I do have to keep chasing them. I am beginning to think about what to do next. Well, I might not do anything. I have another car of my own and my wife has hers. My aged Mazda 6 carries on and still drives well. As I work from home I don't need a newer one. This is my thinking if I do buy another car though. I don't think I would go for another 34is. I dunno why. I did like it. I will probably look on autotrader but not actively seek out a replacement. I spot a G29 parked up on a trip to Cotswolds at the weekend and had a quick look around it. Some say they don't like its looks but I did. Currently it is out of my price bracket (though, that might change) even the 2.0 which would be the one I would go for I think. The only other thought I had was for a Mazda MX5. I could probably get an almost new one of those.

Not intended. If the OP fancies a less troublesome 2.0 I’m open to discussion. I’m not planning on using it until Spring arrives and can always get something else. I don’t really get attached to cars :|

Ah ha! I see. Should have noted what car you had.
Sorry, thought this was a revisit of the old black roof thread :)
