But does she supply and fit brake discs ?
you say 'current' Mrs chunky , sounds like plans for a 'new' Mrs Chunky are on the horizon ? , maybe one who does slushbox refurbs ?

She would quite happily help me work on the car if needed. She used to help her dad doing pattern making when she was younger.
I can't afford to trade her in yet, she earns more than me

Re: NewBee Q. - 2003 OEM Front Brake Disc Options
Yes fortunately she does have a sense of humor, I have been putting fof buying more for 5 years as its not the most sensible of choices, but if you want an interesting toy, and have 2 dogs, want an automatic under 15K that's not a Subaru Legacy, there is not many choices.
I've been watching this site for a few years now, it only looks like I recently joined as couldn't get on to my old account. Plan to run the car 4 days a week to work and back, which is 30 miles a day, and they for fun trips on the weekend if there is any fuel left lol.
I'm near Chester, so I believe there are a couple of places that are ok within local area.
I have been buying old M3's with the prone SMG weak gearboxes, and have had 3 out of 4 fail, so in the odds of if something can fail it usually does, I'm the buyer it lands on.
But I've always wanted one, so need to have one, I'm sure I will live to regret the decision, especially after my mechanic friend who has one tells me its expensive to run lol.
Worse case scenario, if the gearbox falls out it will live on the road and ill steal my wife's mini until I can afford to get if fixed. ;0) (Wont tell her that though, may test her humor bone)
Thanks for the advice and welcome. J.

Well. I need my head testing, as I am now the owner of an ebony black 03 109K RS6 Avant yeah ;0) bring on the fuel usage, managed a wonderful 22.5MPG over the weekend, as I used the car to visit our Aunty in Portsmouth.

22.5? Must try harder. It's the pedal on the right.
