Having followed some numpty this evening who'd still got his rear fog lights on three days after we had a bit of light mist got me thinking the S doesn't have a warning light (not that I've ever used the rear fogs)?

My S3 has a warning light in the panel wth the lights on warning and all the others Its an MOT requirement so there must be one. Maybe your bulbs gone or dodgy wiring is not unknown with a TVR laugh.
I recently found that if I turned the panel lights off when I pressed the brake pedal the headlights came on!! confused. Eventually traced the problem to a fault in the dim dip unit. No idea what why, found it by chance.

Yep definitely a mot fail if you don't have one.
