Dave posted the other day that scuttle panels have now been discontinued, might explain why you’ve had no reply from Audi.
Sounds exactly like my 2019 plan, I did more than my plan and spent 50% more.A. Make a plan
B. Estimate a budget
C. Ignore step A and B

Revised New Years resolution......... focus on the things that may take time but don’t cost much, then tell the wife that I’ve spent less and average between the two years.
it’s not going to work is it!
The latter is the best news the final payment is the sweetest oh yes ?..finally get another high spec A2 (or a good base to improve upon)
Oh..................and make the final payment on my mortgage
You've got to keep the Crystal Blue one! Just replace the suspension with something that doesn't have the material properties of reinforced concrete.I plan to reduce the size of the A2 fleet from 2 to 1, as Will (son) not likely to be driving for a bit.
The Crystal Blue one might be the one to let go first and keep Will's Colour Storm for a bit.
The Crystal Blue one is a bit marmite really with the B8s and the Eibach Pro-Kit springs. It rides a bit like a cast iron bedstead!
It does have lots of nice things though, including Colour-DIS and an A2 Sport wheel with the Tiptronic buttons configured (courtesy of @timmus ( to control the radio.
Decisions decisions. 10 cars registered to the home address is too many though!
