Funny enough one of my neighbours is the dealer Principal for Audi Leeds. I noticed tonight as he drove an new Q7 past me that they have the same red strip across the back as well.

It’s not as unique as I first thought.

I agree completely retro-rear-lights cluster on Gen 1 reminded me of the 928 heritage.

I drove behind a Gen 2 yesterday and in heavy traffic the bar made it look like a cheap flashing toy. I took a picture, but I must disguise the number plate before I post other people details on a public forum.

OK, here goes:

Looks like your dash cam is positioned exactly in your line of sight!

I don't think it really matters. He/she was on a public road - no expectation of privacy - and no link to the person in question.

Looks ok to me although I haven't encountered on at night. Is it also a brake light? One of my pet hates are drivers that sit in traffic with the foot on the brake blinding anyone behind. Of course, with the 'Hold' facility, this would never happen behind a Macan
