    I bought a set of front carpet mats for an A3 last week from Audi. £40 + VAT. Guess S3 ones will be a bit more. Rears were £25 + VAT.

    Nightmare

    Come on now. It's a bit of plastic that you're hardly (if) ever gonna see. Save your money for something else. And man up a bit. What happened to common sense? Seems OK to drive? Carry on!

    fixing number plates

    Another thumbs up for velcro. Although I didn't use quite as much as Helifella! Bought the pack of 2 strips from Halfords for about £3. Cut into smaller strips. My tip is to remove your old plates and look at the bodywork behind them before sticking the velcro on. I had to reposition a couple...

    rear brake caliper bolts - HELP!

    If you're only doing the pads you only need two spanners and a wind back tool. (IIRC). To just do the pads you don't need to remove the carriers so no breaker bar needed.
