Just Put A Deposit Down On A 2003 3dr MK4 VW Golf R32 in Deep Blue Purple with 70k on it :thumbsup: Might not be the fastest thing on the planet and is considered a heavy car, but I completely fell in love with it as a package! Seats, spec, overall gut feeling. Definitely a car for me !! - AMD...

Well....I went to see the car tonight.... Unfortunately it wasn't meant to be. Not only did the car have a few niggles, but I'm afraid I also discovered an S3 just isn't for me :( The bodywork of the car was brilliant, the car really did look amazing on the 19's it was perfect, but it just...

Well I must admit I thought the night's episode was actually really good. However it's probably because of different reasons to why you guys thought it wasn't so good. The reason I thought it was hilarious is because my mum comes from that seaside city they first went to (not the crap gypsy bit...

Good advice guys, much appreciated.. - Clutch, original apparently, but I will be sure to check the biting point. he assures me it doesn't ever slip and has plenty of life, Which if true, I would say is a good thing as it indicates no hard launches and possibly a lot of easy motorway miles! if...

Right then boys & Girls. The owner of "The Black Car" from above posts has been busy lately and had to cancel my first visit last friday due to attending the classic car show with Meguiars. As a result no one has been to see the car at all yet (which is reassuring I guess) as I will be the...

Excellent stuff :applaus:That's What I like to hear. I'm going to have a good look around the car tomorrow evening. (It's kept in a fully lit warehouse at the moment) I'll just make sure to knock him down as much as I can and pick any holes in it. If there's anything wrong with it, I will...

Very Interesting Thread. I'm thinking about buying a 103k 2001 S3 running 300bhp but am worried about the mileage. On the whole this thread is positive though. So quite reassuring. Looking forward to visiting the car this week, and hopefully checking out whether it is as mechanically sound as...

Chaps! Bludy brilliant advice. Just got my Quick Launch back, brilliant stuff. I just couldn't get used to the Pin/Unpin so it had to go! It's So much cleaner now. I quite like the way you can revert back to old taskbar style it's just knowing how to do it. Nice to have the option! As for...

Ive been runnign it for 2 weeks now, still getting to grips. Youve just helped me fix the msn annoying issue !! How have you got quicklaunch back though? Its doing my head in not having that. 2 things I really don't like are Dont like this new "pin" / "unpin" from the taskbar and the fact...

19" Replicas :thumbsup:

No Worries, It's all good. Your comments have been really helpful! Can't beat knowing a little history about a car, even if it was a 2 minute passenger ride from a stranger. haha. I shall let you all know how I get on viewing it. I hope it lives up to the pictures and advert. If it had done...

What? haha.......THE PLOT THICKENS...lol. Did I just read that correctly? You used to own that Actual Car? :ohmy: or do you just mean you used to own "an" S3 so wanted a go in his? What are the chances of this. Small world! Did he drive like he'd stolen it when he took you out? :busted_cop...

That's quite interesting. He said he didn't go on forums. I take it you must know him through some other means? Is he definitely not a member on here? I Hoped he wasn't try to hide something when he told me he didnt come on forums. Chap does seem genuine on the phone though, however you can...

2001 Y Plate....so lower Tax bracket.....Also Another bonus....It's 10 miles round the corner from me and I've never seen it on the road !!! haha Northampton Based. I will try ask for a rolling road print out, as you say torque will be interesting as we all now thats what breaks things ! as...

Cheers for the responses guys. FAZs3 I will try to look out for your old stage 3 car. Do you know where it is for sale, have you got a link? I was also worried baout the clutch like you guys have mentioned. It is apparently standard and original, but he assures me it has plenty of life and...
