Not sure. Looking at the daylight pics you cannot tell. Maybe its the Tesco lighting, Maybe my panels are multi-coloured :D

The mirror covers are stupid and one flew off earlier... Waiting on my neighbour to sort me some new ones out.

Light like that is great for picking up irregularities in metallic paint, I wouldn't worry. Just change the wing mirror covers :p
 
I was just gonna ask that :D

I wouldn't worry too much about the bumpers looking different, loads of cars are the same, mine definitely is lol

I like the Astra's, just the rear visability puts me off a bit. I think they're fun cars, nice and frantic :D
 
It's just the paint sitting differently on the plastic material of the bumper, makes it look a different colour in some light. Nothing to worry about. Vauxhalls are particularly notorious for this. It stands out more on some colours than others.
 
Phew, was ready for putting it up on pistonheads :p joke.

I will this morning change the position of the tax disk, to please those it may offend. Does look silly now I look at it though lol.

Yeah but the previous owner was a middle aged lady so I can't really argue :p

The interior is my favourite bit...

Liking the TT interior, was this an option? I have never seen an interior like this before.

It's standard on the quattro Sport which was the run out model done by quattro GmbH (has a quattro GmbH VIN plate rather than Audi). You could actually opt to have the regular seats put back in if you wished but I'm not sure why you would, half the point for me is the seats.

The major differences over the regular 1.8T models are 75kg of weight saving achieved by the Recaros, removing the rear seats, no spare wheel and moving the battery to the boot which allowed 15kg of ballast to be removed from the rear bumper. It wears the bodykit from the V6 model and has unique wheels plus black roof and wing mirrors.

Suspension has been fettled so it rides better and sits a bit lower, this combined with the strut brace in the back makes it feel stiffer. Power is up from 222bhp to 237bhp which isn't much but the delivery is much different, feels like a wider power band than my old 225 which comes in lower down the range.
