Morning folks, Joined up as waiting to pick up my 57 plate 3 MPS and thought this looked the ideal place to hang around! I've bought a True Red one, 24000 miles and pretty mint, took it for a test drive last sunday, really liked it then for some reason decided not to go for it... by monday night I realised it was too good to miss out on so called the garage back- DISASTER.... someone had put a deposit down that day on it!  Turns out the other chap who bought it couldn't get the finance so I got my deposit down on Thursday!! Gonna be a long week waiting for it! Saying cheerio to my Audi S3 and hello Mazda!

In all honesty i've had the S3 for almost 3 yrs and in that time i've never felt it a 'fun' car to drive... it serves a purpose but it all the VAG 1.8t engines seem to lack soul. I'll report more once I actually get the new car next week! Craig
