2013 Audi S3

Yay, another s3 in belgium :). I'm based in Brussels, if u see an Estoril blue s3 sportback it'll probably be me :), flash ur lights ;).

Haha I will! ;) I live in Limburg (Sint Truiden) btw ;) still have to wait couple more weeks before receiving my car...

That's not too far ! Enjoy your car when you get it! You'll love it!
 
Kings Lynn are offering 8% off the pre vat price on S3s at the mo

That should equate to 8% of total price excluding otr charges. 2500 off pre vat you should get 3000 inc vat. If you aren't someone is being naughty! If the total discount is only pre vat you are only getting just over 6.5% discount!

I've been saving 10% pre vat on rs4s so about 11k off with the £5k from Audi finance

Discounts should be same off net as Post Vat (apart from OTR Charges) In my example above if the discount at the end is a monetary amount based on 8% of net (say £2500) it is not really 7%. The discount % should be taken off net figure and a resulting saving on VAT should also accrue.

Audi discounts can be huge.. you could get over 26% off an A7 last year!

Not quite depreciation free in my case .. circa £3k for 9 months, bargain nevertheless but depreciation now is about £750-£1000 a month however!
 
This car was stolen 2 days ago from a house in Luxembourg :

Wort.lu - Audi S3 stolen from Luxembourg home

Notice the sweet rims on that one :unsure:
 
Not stolen, just removed by the bad taste police.

Just got off the phone from Ben at Newcastle Audi.

he said as far as he has been able to find out, there are no plans to drop estoril in the S3, S3 Sportback or S3 Saloon. he just got new brochures for the saloon and estoril is in that.

still no confirmed build date except week 17 for mine though, only 15 or so more weeks to go then :wtf::banghead:

My dealer just phoned. My car is built and has left the factory for the port! Woop! Dealer trying again to sell me supaguard protection but I'm wondering if I'm one of many on 1st March whether to bother as can't imagine they'll invest the correct time or effort to do it properly.... Any thoughts? Shall I get a local to do it instead?

On the plus side. Summer time!
 
I'm going to book mine at a detailer once I have it. They'll wash it properly anyway and I want to get the gtechniq c1 crystal lacquer sealant stuff put on anyway. Wouldn't do myself as you need training.

I had mine detailed at the dealership. Didn't want their guys touching the car...and told the dealer as much. In fairness to them they didn't put up any fuss and accomodated the detailer very professionally - access to utilities, indoor area.

Detailer travelled down and spent a full day on the car. He confirmed that the Audi guys hadn't been near it, and sent me photos of the whole process. Had the Polish Angel Cosmic Glasscoat applied.
 
I've cleaned mine 4 times out of six days had a splash of auto glym super resin on Monday, is autoglym good or should I look elsewhere for paint protection?

Cleanest it'll ever be! Looks nice, enjoy it

I wouldn't say that as I do keep my cars clean and will be detailing it soon, but it's defo the cleanest it'll be this weekend what with all the sh**y weather!!

A couple of points so far ........

LED headlights are amazing and well worth the money

Supersport Seats are also amazing, so much more comfortable than the standard seats and they look awesome!!

Yeh can't wait to get back in it, going in to work early tomorrow so I get a half day to go away for weekend.
Glad I made your day, shame the pics aren't as good as I hoped!!
