    ****Car Stolen****

    We had an attempted break in, the week before last, in Leeds. It seems they were after the keys to the S3 too.

    Lifting wiper blades on S3 .. how's it done?

    I've found that you can just push them up the screen yourself by hand.

    My New S3

    Looks awsome!! But then I would say that as my Deep Sea Blue S3 has just arrived at the stealers! Think they are a very similar colour if not the same! Just got to wait now for the 1st of Sept!
