Hi I'm new on here and looking to buy an S3 some time in this summer.
Currently I'm driving a Fiat Coupe 20v Turbo but I'm looking for something thats going to stand up to the much higher mileage that I'm now doing.
To be fair the Fiat is very quick (which I'll probably miss) and has never let me down in three years of ownership, but I've always liked the look of the S3. I went for a drive in an 02 S3 at the local Audi dealer a few weeks back and even though its not quite as rapid and characterful as the Fiat, its seems a more rounded overall package.
I reacon that on average the Fiat has cost me around £1,200 a year in maintainence/servicing costs, and ideally I'd like to reduce this figure a little. So the question is:
How much do you think your (unmodded) S3 costs you on an annual basis?
