Hi guys

Im a new member who recently purchased a 05 Silver A5 Euro (standard) for my fiance and I drive it on the weekends

As my names suggests my daily driver is a 01 Clubsport but we upgraded her 97 Camry to a Euro as it was a perfect match, she loves it and I enjoy driving it and our fuel bill has significantly dropped... and I always wanted to get rid of the boring Camry for a Euro

She drives the Euro to work and we use it now on the weekends

I can't rave enough how great I find the quality, looks and driving of this car.

Purchased some stock floor mats and need to get a spoiler, $750 was quoted for OEM

Does anyone know if you can get cargo nets for the 03-08 euro's. Seen the cargo net for the new model but nothing in the brochures (honda.com.au) for this model

Look forward to posting with you guys

Cheers vxclubsport569 - Simon

hello and welcome!

There are occasionally some oem spoilers for the euro in the parts for sale section.
Also cargo nets are available, try calling up some of the dealers.

welcome mate!

imo dont get the oem spoiler, doesnt suit the euro. Go on ebay, u can get the m3 lip spoilers. they are more discrete and classy. Also they cost <$100aud ;)

congrats on the euro, they really are a nice car to drive. how do u cope with the performance difference between the hsv and the euro lol :p

well, actually, u are incorrect

u compare my car to a crv, which is not a 4wd but an awd, and you have said that my car looks like a crv

so if you are comparing my car to an AWD crv then Ford and Holden do also make AWDs, the territory, escape and captiva.

So they do make AWDs and I dont own one

go put on ur shitty racing hart 0 offset hardparker omg i need 8 degrees of neg camber n00b wheels, lol

back on topic

spill ur bs on msn bau, lol
