    THIS IS WHY....

    Mate, I just had the cam belt replaced on my S4 and asked them to do the water pump whilst they were there. The dealer even told me they don't need changing but I did read somewhere on here that they can seize at around 80k. Looks like you got there just in time..

    I've been told by a dealer that there's around 20 miles left driving 'cautiously' when it hits zero. Best I've managed was 332 miles to the tank.

    What Tyres for my S3

    I hate the Toyo's too, Haven't lasted anywhere near as long as my old Bridgestone S03 PP's so I think I'll go back to them next. I drive my S3 hard and I think traction in wet and dry is average at best. Good luck

    At the moment it costs me around £16.00 per month more to use Optimax which isn't an issue but sometimes I have to drive 10, 20 miles out of my way to get it. Does my head in. Sorry I meant super-unleaded.

    Does It Stay Or Does It Go..?

    Crafty, You are correct on price (£38,975.00). I have £6k put by and will need on my estimation another £13k to be 'SAFE'. I've looked at my S3 being worth around £23k but I will obviously need spare cash for the hike in insurance and any extra's I can afford.
