welcome home... some interior photos

[Oceansoul]

Took some interior shots. My first try in that and was great fun

press the button... and start your engine

let's go... and have fun

the point of no return

Quattro.

let me entertain you...

and one non-interior shot

 

[Dsemaj]

I like 'em. My only criticism is the Quattro picture. There's just a bit to much of nothing at the top and the bottom. I would have framed it horizontally rather than vertically. Also, you probably need to clean up the dust too

What sort of Audi is it?

 

[Oceansoul]

Thank you. Here you got the "only Quattro" photo
To be honest - I don't like it. It's too much "old fashioned" for that car with only the wood and the "Quattro". I prefered the one showing the three "main" materials in the car: grey leather, the dark wood and the aluminium.

And.. yes I cleaned it but there was still dust flying around and unfortunately it sometimes setteled down where I didn't want it to... you clean the car, take maybe three photos... then you got a good photo - and the dust is back

 

[Solberg]

is that a 'S' audi?

 

[Alok]

yay! So versucht Man lieb zu sein?

 

[Oceansoul]

No it's not a 'S'.
A8 4.2 TDI

@ Alok: Thanks Ja, das war der Versuch

 

[Solberg]

i saw a S8 with those wheels the other day.

They look fantastic.

...Yet I see Alok gives her no grief about picture #1, but lets ME know if somthing is crooked!


Sigh.

B&O Advanced Sound System FTW, nice pics too.

I wish it had been a bit more alligned, but for a first try, I think she did very well. Wish her computer didnt go kaputt will all her previous pics.

A Canon girl at last, now our boards are sort of balanced in terms of female photography

Merete, post more pics of your fish-i

 

[Oceansoul]

If it's straigt and perfect - it's boring. Tried that - and then decided to focus on the "Engine start" and one of the sides of the button.

 

[IceBone]

Wow, these are truly great. I like how clean they are and the colours are great. Toned down, cool, but still very much noticable wherever they're used. Exactly the feeling of an Audi interior. I think you captured the feel of it very nicely.

But tell me, please, which audi has a starter button?

 

[Oceansoul]

Thank you Ice
As I said above it's an A8. It has had a start button for ages - but during the last face lift it turned from black plastics to that sweet silver one

 

[IceBone]

Ah, I see. My dad's measly A6 still has the old fashioned turn-key mechanism.

 

[Oceansoul]

...which is not bad since you actually know where your key is

 

[IceBone]

True. Although for my taste Audi's are too technological and detached. The key is still turnable, but it works the same way, you don't actually manually engage the selonoid, you just hit a switch which in turn activates the starter. Same with the steering. The electronic power steering is just so wooly and well, weird... In regards to driving feel, I much prefer my 11 year old Mitsu to the Audi. I might even say it's a bit more comfortable. But it is trumped with everything else. Accelerations, top speed, wind noise at high speeds, body roll, 6 speed gearbox, interior quality, sound system, overall build quality...

 

[Oceansoul]

You are right. I totally agree.
They are so perfect that they completly lost a thing wich I would like to call "character".
I like them because they are so technological and perfect - but I could never fall in love with one of them.
