There was a guy on here earlier today/yesterday with pretty much same question. Have a read at his post and the replies.
Also worthwhile checking out the S3 buying guide
Cheers

SOrry was being lazy..here are the links
Plus worthwhile doing a search and make sure you select "all posts" because i'm sure this question gets asked and answered a few times, some times better than others. No harm in taking a wee bit of time to read through.
have fun

Oh yeh check for timing belt and water pump. These need changed around the mileage you are at. Can be about 800quid i think.
Great cars - take time, be patient and get a good one.
Look on ebay for completed items to see what they have sold for before and check autotrader too. Also the trading post here may have had some too.
I wouldnt neccesarily go with guide prices as desired models have quite a premium on them.
Good luck
