Are there any fairly local dealers that stock S's?

In particular, S3's and S3C's.

I live near to Portsmouth.

not really

Adrian Blythe occasionally has the odd one but these days the cars are too old and of too little value for the dealers to stock to be honest. very rare you see one in a dealers unless its something special - ie a V8S or a V6S with 3 miles on the clock....

I thought as much but put the word out just incase.
I really should get an S owner to give me a go (as a passenger of course) in one at the next meet.

adam - if you want to make your way over to hedge end i can lift you up to a hants meet and i am sure one of the chaps there will take you out in an S. Just dont go in HarryW's V8S or Graham's (GBGaffer) Cosworth powered one or you would never be satisfied with a V6 again!


Thanks for the offers. Unfortuanately Im still doing the busy thing that I have been doing for a while now.
Perhaps next months meet if the offer is still there.

schnozz, I noticed the profile change earlier too. See the "sub 5 sec, sub £5K" thread.
nice name!
