Audi S1 - APR Stage 1 ECU mod
Discussion
I know what you mean. I'd rather click a mouse than pick up the phone, but it works in your favour in the end.
Not cars, but insurance related...
We had a baggage claim for lost luggage and my wife spoke to an agent to ascertain the best course of action. We were told that we could go out and buy clothes to replace the ones lost, but then when she went to claim back the money, she was then told that wasn't covered.
However, because 'calls are monitored for training purposes' they have to keep the transcripts of the calls. When she asked for the transcript, they changed their minds once they'd seen it.
If there's any doubt at all, it's worth clarifying. If you click the wrong button, you may end up not being covered at all.

Bit off topic but how do you find the S1 as an everyday car, we were thinking about a new 595 Abarth Comp but I keep hearing horror stories about even brand new cars.
A pre owned S1 is next on the list and the quattro makes much more sense where we live out in the sticks.
Don't really hear much about the little Audi hence why I thought I'd jump on this post.
Cheers

Sorry Daggerpie I can't help - I don't have one, i'm considering a few different options and one car that i've seen for sale has the APR remap, hence the initial question.A pre owned S1 is next on the list and the quattro makes much more sense where we live out in the sticks.

Ahh I see no worries. Personally I would be a bit wary about buying a mapped car, it might have been really looked after and driven like a granny, but lets be honest, we don't remap S cars to get better MPG despite what we tell the wife!I love mine 
Had it a year now but not done many miles in it. Used as a toy rather than daily driver but perfectly practical for two people (we often have the back seats down for decent luggage space).
It was very good in the recent snow with winter tyres on.
I plan a Revo or APR remap in the future. No great effect on MPG I understand - you can't use the extra power most of the time.
