hi everyone, the time has come to sell the corsa vxr and move onwards and upwards. i'm looking to get the S3 (07) plate but just want to find out a few things from your experiances plus a lot of internet pages throw up different answers.
so first off common issues i should look out for? i read somewhere that the quattro system needs to be serviced/looked at after so many miles?
the sat nav unit has sd readers behind for mp3 can i use my itunes for this or just mp3 files, or even better can i connect my ipod to the sound system?
service intervals and pricing what should i be roughly be paying for big and little services?
mpg, what should i expect for day to day driving usually on A roads?
also why are the 08 plates around 5-6k more to buy? is there something i'm missing with the 07 models that should be avoided?

thanks in advance.
