HAHAHAHAHAHA! Sorry, that is the funniest thing I've heard. I now own a Fiat Stilo, but previously had the A3, that car is the NUTS! Its awesome!

Sorry, I know this is anti-Stilo-ish but come on guys, be realistic, the A3 is MUCH cooler and better looking. The only reason I got a Stilo is the attractive price and the extremely cheap insurance, well what I thought it would be.

If the A3 is much better then why didn't you buy one?

all Audi's look the same and they give out a statment to everyone about the driver, and it's not "cool"

When I sold the JTD I was looking at other brands, had a quick glimpse at Audi's but they just don't have character.

If it was so good, then why'd you get rid of it for a Stilo?

Dan's totally right, all Audi's look the same, and all Audi drivers look the same...all I'll say is:

Think you need to try an Audi forum...

Re: JTD remapped, what next?

Be fair guys - far better to own an Audi than a BMW

I mean at least it doesn't say about the driver

Re: JTD remapped, what next?

He did said he bought the stilo purely for its cheap running cost.
However, I dont agree with he saying A3 is cooler than stilo, the front of the new A3 is ok, but as some already mentioned, it looks the same as any other Audis, but stilo is surely much better looking on the side and the rear, may be I will pop them to my cousin's and put 2 cars side by side and take some pics.

I do wonder if the 147 Q2 limited slip diff will fit.

Apparently they're only £250 from Alfa...

Or buy one of the new 1.9 engines that come 177 bhp standard in the Fiats and 188 bhp standard in the Alfas.

My cousin is away!!! damn it, will take the photo this weekend.
really? will they go in to my JTD 3 door with out a lot of work, but I still need to change my gear box, ecu, clutch etc.... wonder how much a brand new engine cost from them......Hate to think that.... anyway, it look liket it would be even easier to get the new Bravo Mjet 150 than the stilo as the only, yes, only 150 stilo I found still costing£9,495 with 8k on the clock . a new brave only cost just over £14,000 on the net.
