I like how you've carefully blanked out only half the numberplate.

It's a strange thing to do.

It's a status symbol aye... Look at my 66 plate lol.

Jez · 18 Oct 2016 at 19:29

Anyone thinking a boggo car like that is a status symbol is seriously misguided in the financed world we live in.

I think the Audi looks decent and I'm sure in a straight line the driver feels the bee's knees but it doesn't do anything for me.

What's the monthlies on it?

Edit: That cluster display thing next to the rev counter looks quite cool but unless you travel a lot would probably get a bit tedious after a while; can it be turned off?

At least he got rid of that god awful Mini.

Lol I know it's not a status symbol, people and your average joe think a brand new Audi is the dogs balls

Its not white and it is not a diesel.

He's doing it right. Nice car. Enjoy.

I like the indicators on new Audis. Finally, they've done something to get owners to use them so people can see how swish they light up. Some models have them on the front too.

Clarkey · 18 Oct 2016 at 22:00

I think they are extremely tacky tbh.

+1

The fact that someone actually made a video with 'dance' music to show off some indicators sums it up for me.

Also... fully dynamic indicators... is that what they call a bunch of LEDs these days. I guess it's what appeals to the morons though.

mrk · 18 Oct 2016 at 22:16

Dunno, I just thought they looked cool as far as factory indicators go. Could be worse, could be halogen bulbs like pre-lci BMW on nearly everything

agw_01 · 18 Oct 2016 at 22:19

Don't get me wrong... they're different and will draw attention. I'm just not sure it'll be the right attention.

Replace your "wikkid rimz blud" for "wikkid indicators m9"

RoboCod · 18 Oct 2016 at 22:19

They're crap.

[TW]Fox · 18 Oct 2016 at 22:29

Didn't they pinch this off the Ford Mustang? I'm sure I've seen similar on one of those.

Kaeo · 18 Oct 2016 at 22:57

Reminds me of Knight Rider, but not in a cool retro kind of way.

Could it not just be he wants to hide his plate whilst still letting us know what year it is? I guess he could hide it all and just say its a MY2016 or whatever.

It is a motors forums after all and it may help with some questions about engine revision or other things that only came in in certain years.

For example I hide my whole plate as it makes me feel happy inside and I always have however if I left the 11 on show you would not have to ask me if my D5 is a 185 or 205 bhp output as you would be able to tell

(and who doesn't want to know that!)

I've seen the new Ford Mondeo do it, well, at least I'm 90% sure I did.

First time I saw the Audi indicators was on an R8 about 3 years ago. I thought it was cool then, something very R8 like to do. Now I'm not so keen as they seem to be on most models.

He wants the internet to know he has a brand new Audi.
