Lovely car draffodx, much nicer in the blue than the chav orange. Did ya ever get the old window heater problem solved?
@japasca, also a smashing car, brilliant build quality. But I would have went for a different colour:o

I would have preferred Dolphin Grey myself plug, but she was so clean i didnt want to be fussy. What colour would you choose?

Dolphin grey as well!

A friend of mine has a red one, it looks dire in red but I didn't tell him that obviously.

Don't mind Plug.:p it looks just fine.

Fantastic looking TT, has all the important bits too - so many people skimp on things like the Extended Aluminium, and it's hard to believe a car like this doesn't come with an MFSW as standard. That one looks just right.

The now retired Dolphin Grey is lovely alright

Berty

Beautiful paintwork. Reminds me of my old Audi. It's blue but its look different in this photo: Less flakes of course

@ Plug: I would have loved to get this one, however the seller seems to think its worth 7,000 more than the one i purchased :rolleyes:

@ RoverJames: Ya it looks poor enough in red alright! Did he buy from new

@ Chris: Thanks, i'm loving it!!

@ Conneem: Grey was my number one choice alright. Decided against the modified 2008 TT for sale in galway due to the higher than average miles. What colour is yours?

@ Berty: Was your A4 monza silver bert?

Amazing car Japasca, would love to own one of those in the future, when I'm not a poor 17 year old student :pac:

Really misses the aluminium pack and it has standard wheels too. Those Turbines that you have were 1,400 euro to spec new

Missing extended leather too - a silly oversight. The door grab handles and handbrake are really plastic-y without it .

Something about the leather in that car doesn't look right either - not just the sagging in the front, but on the back seats too...

Yeah, I would spec the extended leather before leather for the seats, the standard half leather half alcantara seat look pretty decent.

I think it is just the lighting on the back seats

-Chris-

Maybe. You can't use the back seats, so they should be mint. Any sagging or ripples would make my antennae perk up.

It could definitely be a trick of the light though.

I beg to differ

Don't ask about the cowboy hat, we still don't know where it came from

-Chris-

OK, you can't use the rear seats with any dignity :P:D

I'm 5'7", and if I set the front seat so I was comfortable, I'd barely fit in the rear seat (sitting behind myself). It's possible, but I wouldn't want to spend any extended time there...

Yeah for any comfort you need to be less than 5'4" in the back.

Spent a good 4 hours today on the interior of the 7, she's looking sharp if I do say so myself. Its exactly 11 years old this month.
I need to get a decent camera, but these pics aren't too bad.

21 mpg :O

That kinda puts me off one? Is that purely town driving???

-Corkie-

Thats like a brand new motor inside. It absolutley class I love it..

Top Dog

Always loved the way BMW just lashed the leather in there - none of this "stretch it till its almost like hard plastic" crap

It's a very nice colour in the Mazda 6. Photos don't do it justice. Only available in the facelift model.

Is it the Exec model?

Sport model. Spoiler and sunroof.

Have you actually filled it up from empty and calculated it based on the mileage or are you just using the on board computer because by all accounts the BMW fuel economy readings are usually rather optimistic.

Don't ruin the 7 series for the rest of us :P

Well wear Deutschlandfurimmer! And Limerick Man, I still want a call when you're done with that. It makes my pants go funny.

Will post a photo of my new yoke at the end of this week. Busy fitting a new boot to it. Not a boot lid, a whole new boot design. Don't ask. One of my more crazy ideas

You can have it by all means, just find me a nice Saab 95 estate diesel or Mg ZT diesel estate to replace it with :P

In all my tests the OBC is 1.2mpg on the optimistic side. I averaged 39.8mpg according to the obc recently from Dublin to Dundalk so its pretty accurate.

Increase the speed to 120kph+ and it gets about 34mpg.

Topper Harley

I have to say I love the Audi TTs ... they've given me something to aspire to. In the meantime though, my simple Mazda 6 is keeping me more than happy.
