Calling all S3 Turbo owners in Oxfordshire
Discussion
I am after an S3 turbo to have a look at to aid me in the rebuilding of my S3 Turbo.
I bought my car two years ago in a dis-assembled state, it had not been complete since 1991 when the previous owner decided there was enough up with it to warrent a full restoration, but he never got round to it!!!! and so i bought the car and started on with the job.
i have got to the point now where i need to know where the fluid brake pipe runs from front to back, so that i can put the body on without worrying about squashing the pipe.
This is where you come in, i am after a S3 turbo owner to give some time so i can have a look at his car. i work at RAF Brize Norton and there is a motorclub where we can put the car up on a lift to have a good look! Please be generous and give up an hour to me!!! you can call me on 01993 843057 after 5pm.
Cheers Tony.

Can Anyone help Tony out? 
He lives round the corner from me and only has my SE to look at now i've sold my S3, This is a good oppertunity to get under your car for free too...
Tony,
I can pop mine on there anytime, but my plumming is a bit more complex and i agree an S3 G-car would be great for you to look at and bag a few photos of various items (if you don't have the facility, i could take a shedload of shots and put 'em on CD for you).

Hi Tony
My S3 is normally aspirated, not turbo. Unfortunately I think I have another seizing calliper at the moment and need to get that sorted before I can take the car out on the road again. But if you can't find another turbo (I'm sure I've seen a black one in Witney?) then by all means come over here and have a look.
Cheers
