Brakes are well used, but the wheels is more road grime and dirt as being ceramics they give off little dust, like I say its not had a proper wash for probably a couple of months, with unsettled weather, lots of road trips and stuff its just being rather pointless to wash it when it would simply be dusty and dirty again a day later. Just simply driving it and enjoying it.

I was thinking it too!I may as well say it before Fox does... You thought your 116i was a bit plain, so you bought a white A3?
Managed a fair bit over the 3 days tbh, as long as it's not heavy rain it's quite doable. Anything over ~8c is fine with the blowers on, so it's just judging how often you're going to be sat still when it might suddenly start raining! I certainly use it a lot more than I expected to, so much so it's made me really think twice about going back to a coupe

Was more about how glorious North Devon (or even Western Somerset) can be with the top down if you get the right weather versus how doable it was heh.

My record is -5 so far, feels actually quite toasty with a hat and the heaters/heated seat on.

Yeah done that in my mx5.. took a long time to heat up that car.. also cracked my rear plastic screen as it was so cold it froze and when I dropped the top it shattered..

"Location: Somerset" we don't know what -5 is
The heated seats in the TT are "melt your ass" hot, so temperature doesn't bother me when it comes to roof down in that, so long as it's not more than a light drizzle then you stay toasty and dry with the wind deflector up. The MX5 got driven in the snow with the roof down (and AD08R tyres, but that's another story!), but it wasn't anywhere near as warm.
Tbh I don’t like driving with the heated seats on in any temperature! Feels horrible.
I may have gone a tad lower than that, it’s more the wind that gets you if it’s blustery. Either way I’m surprised how awesome it is, to the point where I keep looking at next cars which are technically a huge step up but stop myself when I think ‘but it has a roof’.
