rweerasi Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Well, unfortunately the S3 had to go... the 2nd/3rd gear synchro was starting to be a problem so I traded it on a BMW M3 CSL :-). I will surely miss that car! I haven't been an active member of the forum. But I've used it countless times to gain valuable info. Just to reminisce, here's a pic for old times sake. Wheels will be up for sale in the classifieds as soon as I can get some pics done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rweerasi Posted January 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 22000!! Don't know why, I treated that car very well, I was the 4th owner though, (since 11000) can't say how well it was looked after before me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rweerasi Posted January 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 They are 19" Kahn RSS with the Audi fitting kit. They have 2x almost brand new Toyos and 2x older ones with about 60% tread They were on the back. Front have just been replaced due to a puncture on a sidewall. I replaced both as I hate having mismatched pairs. They are in excellent condition. I've always washed and polished them and they look 100%. Couple of minor blemishes and scratches... no big kerb incidents I paid £1400 for these.. looking for around £800. They match chrome mirrors to perfection :-D Heres an example with Khumos..( toyos are miles better IMHO ) http://www.topgear.co.uk/acatalog/4x_19_Inch_Kahn_RSS_Alloy_Wheels_With_Kumho_235_35.php I'll take some pics tonight and post them in the classifieds. cheers Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomk Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 22k miles and the gearbox was dodgy - worrying ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rweerasi Posted January 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Yeah, I couldn't figure it out either... just started crunching through second - third. Wasn't too bad... Just out of warranty too by two months... typical! Had the selector adjusted and the oil changed. Which helped, but it wasn't 100%. It was the only reason i traded the car... I would have held on to it otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
