With your new found key?
we all learn something new every day
That key is awesome!
I can't believe I have a key inside my fob! Like a key in a key! (cue the Xzibit meme)
It's good though as it really bugged me why I had a key slot on my drivers side only when I had no key, but all was explained today. I shall sleep well tonight
Funnily enough, I have read the manual....lots
But I obviously skip the bit with the fob and keys and stuff as I was sure in my head that a fob, which I only thought had 3 buttons, was probably not going to be hiding anything worth reading about

I have pressed that button so many times before today, but never pulled while pushing
Until now I just guessed it was some sort of "fiddle with me while standing around" button
In the damp truly fantastic, better than any tyre I've ever used, but damp and wet is different.
On the motorway when it really hammered it down, they struggled at high speeds to disperse all the water and were very prone to aquaplaning, hence speed had to be kept sub 70mph wheras other cars with traditional road tyres could still happily progress at what must have been over 90mph.
On the country lanes in the wet it was fine, gained on the S3 which was following some nutter in an ST220
through some corners in some very wet conditions but the EVO was sliding around. Wheras on a tyre like say the ContiSport3/Vredstein it would just remain glued to the road in such conditions but would also feel numb. With the AD08's you get a whole lot of feedback so you know its gonna slide but because you know well you drive expecting it so you do cover ground fast.The dry grip however is unreal, as those who had passenger rides going full throttle and remaining flat in corners was easy, so I sacrifice wet grip for the feedback, fun and sheer dry grip.
Its only come winter I might be forced to look for an all season / winter tyre if they turn to crap once temps drop into single figures and its wet most of the time.
