2011 Tech S- New Owner

Post by Kerbing »

Hi guys,

I've picked up a 2.0 Bluemotion Tech S saloon yesterday and this is my first venture in the German car scene. Got rid of my Ford Focus ST250 as my mileage has significantly increased and it's safe to say,I'm a ford but at heart!

However. I do have a few questions.

The service book shows services every 20k. Is this accurate to the service intervals?

Does it have a cam belt or chain?

Strangely, my insurance company quoted me the same price to insure the car as my ST, surely that can't be right?

As its fairly basic at the moment. I'd be interested in swapping the head unit for a 510 model, is this a straightforward swap?

Plans are to find a full set of Wind Deflectors and get some nice OEM wheels.
