    Highest mileage S3? RIP?

    Really feel for you buddy. Have you got a price to get it fixed if you were to buy it back? Insurance repair costs are seriously over the top - they replace new and don't even seek to mend. Might be worth asking. My Leon Cupra which I had from 2002 was involved in an accident 15 months ago...

    Triple QX oil, thoughts?!

    I guess at some point good is good enough? Otherwise every single vehicle would have only the best & that would be the case for everything in life. Many below top notch tick the VW relevant standard for folk's car. If you change it regularly (irrespective of medium/good, or even poor) then may...

    Remapping?

    To play the advocate of the devil, purely to offer an alternate view... so if you get what you pay for, why did you take your car to goons who clearly were cheap as chips as they didn't do a good job? Surely you should go with someone who is expensive. Or is it perhaps not quite so clear as...

    Remapping?

    You have an old car. It will be likely there will be a few things not working ideally on it. Some will likely prevent (good) remappers from working with your car. The bad will remap and you'll hit issues. So you need to take responsibility for those checks yourself, and go prepared, or visit...

    A3 (8P) 2.0TFSI S Line VS S3 (8L)

    Lots of questions I'd say such as Why is it you really want to change? How much do you like your current car? How much do you need / value the £3k? Do you need the money for something else. Is it really £3k or more likely to be less than that? How much hassle is it to change? From my point of...

    My s3 has been shot by air rifle!

    On the basis of what was said in what context on here to whom. Evidence would suggest so yes. Was there really a need?

    What sort of price should I be looking for, for my 2001 s3 that has been written off?

    I think it is difficult to say without further information such as an accurate damage report and knowing under what category was the car written off. Last year I bought back my Seat Leon Cupra after a prang. Insurance assessors said £2.5k worth of damage (under the way they had to repair it)...
