Cleaned the S3 for a few hours today, took a few pics. They are'nt brilliant as light was going and I was only using my phone, plus i'm a crap photographer. Theres nothing new anyway apart from putting my pricate plate on, but I just thought i'd share the pics.















And the last pic of the Corsa and S3 together, with a sheddy 406 in for good measure



Also one of the Xenon bulbs went last night and it needs a service and a clutch. Gona prove to be expensive I feel

Yeah tell me about it, Will do the service and bulb myself, the parts will still be muchos ££. Clutch will be done at my dads garage by one of the mechanics with a bit of help from me probably.

Guy at work got a Xenon bulb for his Laguna was £60 just for the bulb.
