I have just been offered a B5 RS4 for a very cheap price as they cannot afford it, however i would have to see my S3......

I am really undecided, and not totally sure but the spec of my S3 mtm is;

let me know what you think, its currently on 68K and has 12months mot and 6months tax and is 2001 pre facelift with rear facelift lights.

So im in a really stickle of what to sell it for....

so how much do you guys think?/

ok see you in 5

so a 350bhp s3 is worth 6, looking on pistonheads there are quite a few overpriced.........

I would say put it up for around £7500 with that low mileage and if you have that conversion reciept it would help alot.
Have you got bored of the MTM already then Andy? Have you not had/got a B5 RS4 already?

 

[kent_andy]

i have a b7 rs4 and have owned a b5 rs4 before but have that deep down feeling that i could sell it to the misses as the new family car..... still unsure as just bought new wheels for the S3 and maybe selling it would be wrong.

never bored of the power delivery it is addictive, but just thoughts going round at the moment and still sitting on the fence.......

Dont expect to get a premium from the masses on the bhp, unless it is an enthusiast...sad but true..

8k , 7.5k last.

I personally would keep hold of the MTM tbh, like you said...you've just got new wheels on her and from what I've read on here you've added quiet a few other expensive/permium mod's on the motor since you've had it. You would be crazy to let it go for less than 7K IMHO.

 

[damo.h]

have you looked at what you might get if you Stip it back to std and sell the mods/px for std parts if you no longer have ??

 

[S3 TAM]

Keep the S3 mate...

 

[S3Lol]

Keep the S3 mate...

That was my thought while reading through your post

 

[StaceyS3]

Definately keep the s3 mate its a sleeper and also it'll be nice to have someone elses findings and experiances on a k26 and to see what they manage to extract from it

8k , 7.5k last.

+1

 

[kent_andy]

you are convincing me to keep it.

I think its because ive had 3 punctures in 3 weeks and bent a wheel that im feeling sick of it.

Iv just order up Mk5 R32 wheels, not the multispoke but the other style in 18's so hopefully will get over the puncture problem....also complicated by the fact the locking wheel nut has snapped.

Anyway im going on holiday tomorrow for a week and when i come back it will be waiting ready on its new shoes, so might decide then what to do with it......but your right about the sleeper bit, and i will put it up against the 420bhp RS4 before i make any decision...

Keep it Andy, and buy my MTMs.
