Hard Lesson....on the road again...

[S3Paulo]

After almost six weeks since the altercation with a central reservation kerb stone, I got my old S3 back today.

If any one out there does a similiar thing you should expect to replace the trailing arm...stub axle...bearings...bearing housing...drum...drum back plate....brake shoes inc. springs....drive U/J...drive shaft...8 spoke OZ....tyre.

I think that about sums it up...needless to say I was right pleased to sink back behind the wheel and take her for a little drive.
The roads were a tad greasy today so I drove her like a vicars grandma might drive her.

Many thanks to Mike and Wendy at Horizonmotorsport for looking after my car and doing a fine job...oh yes and well done on finding another wheel.

PS I think he knows where at least 2 more wheels are

Good to hear she's back on the road..

Well done to get her back on the road. Wait for some dry roads, then you can exorcise the vicar's grandma.
