Whizzbang Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 Hi to you all, Newbie here so please humour my newness! I have an A6 which is particulate nice, I'm looking to learn more about the technology on my car via this group so I will have a read and if all is good I will throw a few posts up? See what responses I get. I work in the car manufacturing industry so have a fair idea of most things car wise and maybe able to help in some way with any questions relating to vehicle design, appearance and production. Ive been lucky/unlucky to have worked in Motorsport at the highest level and welcome any questions. All the best. Whizzbang.

Since then I been setting up large factories that support vehicals parts as tir 1 suppliers to Aston Martin, Mclaren, JLR & Bentley. It's a humble career that's consumed my life but for all the hard work means I get to blast around in my Audi A6 3.0TDI which in true motorsport fashion at least has launch control!
