Happy New Year to all of you !
My S3 went through a horrendous (judging from the noise anyway - it was dark and I couldn't stop to have a look) pothole yesterday evening. There is no damage visible to my untrained eye but it was quite a thump (front offside wheel took the brunt of it). Tyre and wheel both appear to be OK but clearly that doesn't mean there is no damage.
I get on well with our local Kwik Fit manager (having been a customer for years with various cars in the family) - I'd happily take it to him to assess the damage unless any of you felt that with a "specialist" and fairly new car (65 plate with under 2K miles) I would be better off booking into Audi dealer for a once over. Obviously it's not going to be a warranty claim, although I will be visiting the location to see if I can get a decent photo as I might try to claim back any costs from the Council if there's any significant damage.
Any thoughts ?
