Default Wow, talking about a TT doesn't do justice to owning one.

I couldn't of asked for a better day to test the awesome power of the new TT (for those not following my other threads it's a 2k4 3.2 with 13,000KM on it).

It was raining and foggy as hell and dark. The TT drives in the rain like a freakin' stalion and I can switch lanes with confidence.

With the insanly bright Xeons the fog was no match for the raw power, even though it lit up the fog a lot the fog lights with the xeons did a nice job.

I will get more pics of the car if it isn't raining tomorrow so I can wash her up and powder her nose

Speaking of which, I want to get some material to protect the leather and the vinyl inside. I have armoral for vinyl, but I have no idea what you guys are using for the leather.

Man, I'm still really in shock that I actually own the thing. The DSG is so much damn fun. Snapped my head back the first time I tried it pulling it from the parking lot from the garage it was certified at.

So in short, I'm happier than a pig in **** and I expect many good times to come from this car.

Default Congrats! Use lexol for the leather (conditioner, and protectant), and don't use amorall for the

vinyl, it's not good for it.

Default :-)... Second the no Armorall advice. I like Griot's Garage leather care.

Makes the car smell exactly like a new leather jacket for weeks. That and the fact that it hasnt exactly ruined my leather is all the justification I need.

Default I agree, damp cloth is best. For leather...



I use the Zymol leather cleaner and conditioner kit. Try Carmen at QMR Motorsports, that's where I bought the it a few years ago...
