So, after a lot of soul-searching and fighting my heart ruling my head, I’ve finally ordered a replacement for the S3 . We’ve got a little one on the way, due February, and whilst it was more than big enough, the monthlies were taking the **** a bit when all the additional costs we’ve got coming...

So, the time has come when I need to start considering a family-orientated replacement for the S3. Mrs B wants an SUV but ironically thinks both the Avant/estate options I've put on the list would be "too big"... there's also the consideration of sticking with an S3 if with one child it will be...

Evening all, sorry to post up like this but I had to vent and if the driver is on here I'm happy to discuss his antics with him... Driving through Warlingham this evening in your usual 7pm medium traffic, as I pulled up to a set of traffic lights a sepang blue S3 sportback pulled alongside me...

Hi guys, Got my RV019s back from the refinisher on Friday and they've marked the tyres with an off-white crayon to denote which tyre came off which rim. Anyone know what I can use to get rid of this before applying tyre dressing? Thinking alcohol gel or meths?

Gave the car a long-overdue wash today, it hasn't been done for weeks and I left it longer than I would normally to punish myself for smashing my mirror! Decided to start with the ValetPro Citrus pre-wash I bought a few weeks back, mixed it up 1:6 in my snow foam bottle, gave the car a huge...

Evening all, So came home from picking Mrs B up from the station to find some bellend has parked their Citroen C1 halfway across my driveway. Managed to swing out and get around it but, long story short, when reversing back out I caught my drivers side mirror on the fence post and ripped it off...

Hi Everyone Just been made aware of a white Audi vrm GY12HHR which is being used to commit burglaries in the Reigate/Horley/Crawley areas, seemingly with the intention of taking high-value vehicles. Believed to be a TT but at this stage unconfirmed, please can I ask that if anyone sees this...

I'm a bit of a telly buff (proper stuff) and wanted to find out what everyone rates as their favourite "box sets" as it were and throw my top shows out there. 1) The Sopranos - simply the best series of all time IMO. The late, great James Gandolfini at his best. 2) Sons of Anarchy - The...

Morning all, Thinking this might be one for @Bristle Hound , @Scottyg or @Rob2k68 ?! I'm getting terrible trouble from bonded contaminants - whenever I wash the car, I have small orangey spots all over the bodywork which I need to scrape off with my nail to get off. I assume some kind of sap...

So, I've had this scuff underneath the front bumper since not long after we got the car and I've always ignored/forgotten it, but for some reason this week it's started to bug me. I went into ChipsAway today to get a quote and the chap said it's a whole bumper job, which personally I'm not...

Morning all! I was reading about this a while back on here, basically a couple of people have had their S3s set up to Golf R figures and had a slight improvement in handling etc - firstly, has anyone who's still on the forum had this done? And secondly, I'm concerned that because some of our...

Evening all, Washed the car today and just out of idle curiosity I decided to apply Meguiar's NXT Speed Detailer to the car whilst it was still wet. No idea what prompted this although I recently gave Dodo Juice Future Armour a try (frustrating stuff) and one of the methods is to apply to a wet...

I didn't want to post this in the spotters thread as no-one seems to read it much! I was behind a Sepang S3 this afternoon, heading south out of Brum. I peeled off onto the M40. Thought I recognised the vrm? If it helps ring a bell there was a t**t in a blue Focus ST with red graphics down the...

Morning guys! I'm looking to get a new set of tyres, and although it was to be expected, the prices I'm finding are eye-watering! I'd love a set of Michelin PSS but they are far and away the most expensive available. I've also looked at Conti SportContact SIX, Dunlop SportMaxx RTs, and to a...
