How are you finding the RS3s??

I've found there is a fair bit of movement in the sidewall, so not the best for twisty road driving, but for motorway cruising they're spot on.

Not dome many miles in them so cant say too much but i did spot they have really soft sidewalls - @Merlin did say to get XL ones but i need a bit of give in the tyre as its my daily drive over some really unforgiving city streets...nothing to do with my age or bad back :lol: :nono: but i was running conti winter sports so theyre similar in that respect.

thanks si - I appreciate all the kind comments :D

its not bad for a 20 years old car that has been used as daily workhorse...
theres a few more things to do and then the paintwork and roof needs sorted but its a solid chassis and ive almost got it to the point where i can start saving for that work to be carried out :shock:
