VPI Posted June 1, 2015 Author Report Posted June 1, 2015 Ouch. I am sure there will be numerous people willing to sell her an umbrella, but most of the hotels have them for sharing as well. Quote
cetoole Posted June 1, 2015 Report Posted June 1, 2015 Jeff, I suggest you just make Brent hold an umbrella above it. He can also open the doors for you (white gloves suggested) and fall on your neighbors/their cars if they look like they are going to ding it. Quote
n_maher Posted June 1, 2015 Report Posted June 1, 2015 Nicely done, Jeff! Can't wait to see some pics. Quote
TMoney Posted June 2, 2015 Report Posted June 2, 2015 Great pick, sounds like something you'll be really happy with. What road do you plan on taking her to to break her in? Quote
Grahame Posted June 2, 2015 Report Posted June 2, 2015 Very Nice Jeff. Good job you weren't going to Milton Keynes to pick it up ... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3106512/20-cars-fall-Milton-Keynes-Audi-dealership-floor-workshop.html Quote
n_maher Posted June 2, 2015 Report Posted June 2, 2015 ^^ and a hell yes! Please Jeff, drive it gingerly (but not like our favorite ginger) for the next 3 years, got bored and then sell it to me. Quote
VPI Posted June 2, 2015 Author Report Posted June 2, 2015 Didn't have the time, or the weather, to stop and do some real photos. 5 Quote
Absorbine_Sr Posted June 2, 2015 Report Posted June 2, 2015 Sure, abandon us VW club members. Seriously though, sweet ride. Like others have said, love the blue. Quote
VPI Posted June 2, 2015 Author Report Posted June 2, 2015 It is a VW, I assume I still get to be part of the VW Mafia? Quote
MexicanDragon Posted June 2, 2015 Report Posted June 2, 2015 Which wheels and suspension are you getting? Tune? When are you blacking out the chrome trim and getting a tint? Awesome foundation for a nice car. **BRENT** Quote
swt61 Posted June 3, 2015 Report Posted June 3, 2015 (edited) What's wrong with the stock wheels? What's wrong with the chrome? Does he have to get the requisite bandanna and tat? Edited June 3, 2015 by swt61 Quote
VPI Posted June 3, 2015 Author Report Posted June 3, 2015 Thanks. Need to do a lot of reading to figure out how everything works. The Audi Connect is very cool as it uses Google Satellite maps and intelligence so I can ask it things like, what is the highest rated yelp chinese restaurant in the area and it goes out and finds it and gives me directions. I am disappointed that this car comes with the stupid 30 Pin iPhone cable like the VW. Those phones have been off the market for years, why won't VAG figure that shit out. Met Dusty for a little ride and photography today. Had to get out now that the rain has stopped to do some night time shots. 2 Quote
n_maher Posted June 3, 2015 Report Posted June 3, 2015 Jeff, you could just BT stream to the radio and then all you have to worry about is a charging solution for the phone which is pretty simple to deal with. Otherwise, I agree, bizarre choice to still be outfitting these cars with outdated cables. Quote
grawk Posted June 3, 2015 Report Posted June 3, 2015 VW gave me a 30 pin and a lightning mdi cable with my beetle. Your dealer should be able to do the same. I actually preferred the 30, because I had an extension cable already, and a 30 pin to lightning adapter. Worked great. Quote
VPI Posted June 3, 2015 Author Report Posted June 3, 2015 Yeah, bluetooth will be all I use, just pisses me off that they are so out of date. Quote
VPI Posted June 3, 2015 Author Report Posted June 3, 2015 Speaking of the VW Mafia, I have this fancy license plate holder I do not need now. Anyone want it? Just cover shipping and I will send it your way. Quote
