Haha, I have both - the blonde and the S3. I am actually a student myself. I got my Degree at Manchester last year and am finishing a PGCE teacher training course in September. Training aside, that doesn't really bring in the bread. I do work twice a week (4 hours an evening). I have my...

Is that S3 standard?

I am 22 (just turned) on a 225BHP S3. Had it for nearly 12 months now and I love it. I don't have any modifications. The S3 is such a lovely car without them; very executive and prestigious. One thing that I am undecided about, however, is the car's image. The car looks really nice. I...

Once again, friendly help is always to be found on here. Audi wanted 180 quid parts and labour to do this. I bought the pads off them and picked them up this morning (for £80) and a local, very reliable and reputable garage have said it will cost me about 38 pounds to fit them. What a saving...

Thanks, I'll keep you updated. p.s. dolphin grey... the future!

I love the S3 but I am honestly no good with cars. The warning light came on for brake pads earlier this evening and now I am worried about being out of pocket. Like I say, I am hopeless with the car so fitting etc is a no no. and even detecteing which ones are gone, whether it's the front or...

cheers, yes mine doesn't have that; I bought the "Go" when it first came out, I'll get it sorted.

Help me, I have a new roadangel but wouldn't mind these cameras installing on my tom tom go. How do you do it? I got all the necessary files and dragged them into the tomtom but it doesn't seem to work. can anyone write me/find me an idiot's guide?

My car must have serious problems or I am a seriously mad driver (I am known to floor it on the rare occasion but nothing too bad!)! 21mpg?!

Paul, I am 22 years old (just turned). Although I still feel 16, some people say I look older, others say I look younger. I just think the cop was a bit of a jealous bell-end.

Thanks Ian, you're a star. I'll go tomorrow! I actually tried to call the local cop-shop the day after (Saturday morning). It took an hour to get through, they then said that I had reached the switch-board and that they would put me through to the correct station. After 5 minutes of ringing...

I got stopped by a jobsworth cop on Friday evening. He was toodling on an empty M-way at around 60 in the inside lane, driving like a Granny so I passed him at just over 70... I mean, I am not stupid enough to break a law under a cop's nose and there's always this fear that over-taking a cop is...

Hang on hang on... I have been concerned about this. People say they have "worked out" their MPG. By this, do you mean that you have actually calculated it in some way or is that the showing on the car's computer? My car computer usually says I have done 20-22 MPG. Am I actually getting more?

He does have an induction kit. It seemed around 7 secs to 60 when I went in it. I had a quick play with him (him in the Cupra and me in my 225 S3) when I got my car but I was still trying to master how to drive it. I thought he'd have been a dot in my mirror but he wasn't that far behind. I...

My mate has a 20 valve turbo Cupra as standard and it is really quick (quicker than book figures anyway!) How was your modded one and how would you compare the Cupra, in both modded and unmodded states, to the S3 225?

I am as confused about the chrome as you fella... Aren't they for S3s?

Well I am a bit of a dogger; I thought I had let them out.

Thanks. I'll go and have a look around now. I'll let you know.

I got back in my car after a meal out with the lovely lady this evening and my car windows were all steamed up... again. I always seem to have to sit there for a minute before setting off with the demisters blasting. I'd understand if we had been doing something, but all the other cars in the...

Sorry, meant to put this in the spotters forum...
