Picked up my S3 yesterday and spent too much time and pterol enjoying it today.
I think I got a good deal - 2002 S3, under 100k miles, full service history inc. cambelt and waterpump. Bodywork was in good nick, but the alloys could do with a refurb and it's got fairly bog standard tyres too. Ended up paying £3500 (with the private plate included) but it was originally advertised at £5,000!
The car is pretty much stock. Not been remapped, suspension lowered, etc.
What do you guys suggest as good mods / upgrades to ensure it runs well? Saw a thread about how cleaning the injectors makes a real difference to the car and that should be realtively cheap and easy.
Also going to purchase a Parrot hands free kit from Halfrauds.
Will post pics as soon as I can, but to be honest, if you find a picture of a standard S3 in silver with black recaros, it won't be too much more different.
