Call Audi, I know they do advanced driving courses at Killarney.

If they wont let you use your own car I'm sure they can tell you who will.

I'm also keen to find out about this, because when I get my car, I want to do a ADC too.

Get urself a 1400 Nissan Bakkie with a 200SX motor in it.

Yes, the course is out at Killarney, and wear and tear means nothing when compared with a life. Do the course, it's worth every cent and then some.

i attended the ASDC with 4rings at Kyalami/Gerotek.
They provide A4 2.0T and 3.0TDi vehicle. Was a real eye-opener, especially helpful with regaining control in aquaplaning situations.

But your honda costs more than a porshe because you've replaced most parts at least twice.
