Collected it today - 2003 and laser blue. So far so good, no major "needs" so perhaps a spring/summer of use before a front end lick of paint?

Congratulations - you'll love it!
Presume you know how to correctly warm her up and check the oil etc?

Whereabouts are you based?

Congratulations!

Take it a bit easy in the spring, and look forward to the summer.

Yes, the previous owner gave me the full brief and just been reading it again in the owners manual.

I am in Derbyshire.

Sussed already? Blimey and I hadn't even had the chance to pretend I was a 16 year old schoolboy!

That's the word I used as well!


Daft question - owners manual refers to front fog lights and there is a switch position, but where are they?

No front fogs. Well, unless the wine is getting to me.

Be grateful you don't have the "Dashboard lights off" switch above your right knee. More than a few RV8 cars went back to the dealer for it. Better still, an unwitting PHer went looking for it after reading a thread on it, pressed it, and the bloody thing fell off!

I'm pretty sure the fog light switch switches on the rear. Better check, I suppose. hehe

I dont know if I might be classed as being biased but I think it is a great colour.
First position on fogs switch doesnt do anything 2nd position does rear fog.
Hope you enjoy the new toy.
Just noticed the Trek R steering wheel you really have got good taste.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but:

  • No fog lights
  • No traction control
  • No ABS
  • No fking replacement!
These cars inhabit your soul after a time.......

The S6 is an awesome engine; the T350 a perfect accompniament!

Edited to say; excuse the horrendous spelling after some bubbly!

I can cope without the 2nd/3rd points, but the 1st AND 4th may be a problem lol!!
