First off I've just had the cambelt, tensioner & waterpump replaced including a major service, which I had carried out at my local VW stealers. They had a good offer on so I thought I'd treat the old girl at the main dealers!

Hey dude, congrats on the car. I just bought one which needs exactly what you describe above. Could you tell us more about the offer they had on for all of that?

Cheers,
Faz

Any info regarding the servicing deal buddy?

Hey up mate. Yeah they had cambelt, waterpump & tensioner service for £369! It was that cheap
I opted to have the full major service done there too including all filters, oil, spark plugs etc etc. I also got my coil pack done foc. Total bill was around £660 which is not bad at all from a main stealer.

The focus RS looks very nice, I nearly got myself one instead of the golf.

Cheers mate, it was very nice but it torque steered like mad with near 300 bhp.  It was mental!  It was also very special as it had a signed Colin Mcrae signed sun visor & the first owner was a former british superbike champion.  It had a nice bit of history.  I wish I had enough money to have kept all the cars!

Yes mate they're a fantastic car but once modded they can torque steer a bit too much imo. With the right mods they can be a true weapon. They're getting on a bit now & the interior is a bit marmite but I wouldn't say no to another one! I would love a mk2 FRS but they're still too pricey.
