To clarify, whatever the origin of the problems with my S1 was, it was not the former owner, Cerealsurfer himself, who looked after the car with great care. Perhaps the luck of the draw, but this forum documents that the lucky ones might be few.
Anyway, it is true that the S1 attracted more sympathy than any other cars I have owned, if not from this driver :-)
