What??!!!!! Are you MINTED or maybe need some fresh ideas on fun things to blow your hard earned cash on??! They are wiper blades!!!!! 3 quid each from the boot sale...

I sold my S3 to get a 330d kiddiewagon (400Nm). No doubt the s3 was faster if you wanted to have fun - more grip, more power at top of the rev's. But... the 330d is a better everyday fast car because the way the diesel gives power is more appropriate for 90% of driving. The acceleration in top...

If you are looking for transport, pop it into ebay - I needed transport recently and found there are tons of companies and agents advertising on there. I can't speak for the service as I found alternative arrangements.

I really don't get the general idea that if you are in no rush you should hang out for the price you want. If you have NO bites / calls / interest, the price is too high. Supply and demand dictates that. No one is buying S3's and loads of folk are getting shot. Until it is 40 years old...

Has a similar problem on my S3. Recall getting similar codes. Garage & I never got to the bottom of the problem 100%, because I sold it, but at one point they found that the wiring loom was fulll of water from a perished / burst hose under the airbox - think it was a washer bottle or expansion...

Agreed, unless you spent a lot of time queueing or driving very slow in traffic, I don't think the fan is likely to kick in. Check your coolant levels and thermostat.

100% agree. The hardest and most important thing in selling car is getting folk to come see it. Once they are there, selling is easy. If you are willing to take 7, advertise at 7 and a can of beer and you may hook a buyer. There are so many S3's for sale that it's totally a buyers market. Don't...

I hear you, just I've never seen it myself! Maybe the important bit of the whole picture is to make sure you get a bargin in the first place, because that reduces the hit you take when you move it on - sounds like you do the same. I just bought a 52 plate 330d tourer - paid 6,600 when it...

IMHO I think this is indicative of why some people are struggling to sell their S3's... It's just a car (even though most of us agree it's a great one), it has a current value, the current value is listed in various price guides, people don't pay more than the price guides. Easiest and least...

agreed, have a look at pistonheads and the cars that have sold are the ones on reasonable money. There are a few that have been hanging around for ages - in my mind it means they are kidding themselves on the price. As for hanging onto a car - they never go up in value do they? I'd advertise...

fair enough, accepted

How about just sticking with "man" and "guy" and keep the drivers ethnicity out of this? There's been enough questionable attitudes in this post, mainly from the strange little man who started it, with jibes about "gay" and women. RIP the punto driver and his son, sincere condolences to...

F*ck me, that's the price of a holiday! You must be MINTED. Or very very short of ideas on how to have fun with 600 notes!

I'd forget how it looks (not bad at all imho) and stay with the grippy alcantera. I was forever sliding about on the black leather.

I had a GTi-6 before I had the S3 (which is gone now too, for a kiddie wagon 330d!) and if I could have either back for a day, I don't know which I'd pick. The GTi-6 was excellent fun. I'd def look at one again. Standard though, something about little french cars means half of them get butchered...

Just a thought, take it or leave it... Assuming that not many S3 drivers abide by ALL the laws of the land or take no risks with speed, might be best to not throw too many rocks? (Verbal ones, at the scrote!) People in glass houses and all that. Proper bummer about the car though, I'd...

Who cares? The difference is not even equivalent to two tanks of fuel!

Lotta Pompey boys on here today! It did have a Buy it now on the ad at 180, but seems that when people start bidding, it disapears! I'd see if I can put it back on if you are interested at that money?

It allows you to change the boost and timing of the vehicle, assuming you have a REVO remap already on the car. It also allows you to totally disable the car so that it won't even start with the keys, although I only used this a couple of times - when going on holiday and leaving the car in the...

I'd be happy to package up. Best of luck with the auction.
