Car is with TGM Fleet to check geo. 98,000 miles and 6 years without being looked at, will the bushes be seized or not. ??

I have a feeling I'm going to need to find a load of cash quite soon

You might get one or two, I'd be surprised if it were more than that. Good luck!

My S is the same age, although 40k miles less, and only one bolt was difficult to remove. It seems to be a complete lottery, fingers crossed for you.

One or two i'd say.. difficulty is that if you add a replacement polybush because of a siezure, you have to replace the equivalent opposite side with a poly bush too.

but i'd also bet you have a dead compliance bush or two

I'd bet on two front caster bolts minimum
Maybe one rear camber as well.
