Well having previously owned a 2000 x reg black s3 running an RSD map and some 2009 scirocco wheels on 5x112 H and R adaptors, I sold her as I was made an offer I could not refuse.
I have flirted for the past year with an Audi S4 avant 2.7 Twin turbo, remap, coilovers and alloys. It has been a superb car however I have always had a niggle in the back of my head that selling the S3 was a bad move. So being impulsive 2 weeks ago I sold on the S4 and began my hunt for an S3. I wanted an 8L as the 8P does not have the flared arch look I am after. The 8L screams " I am a naughty car"
So I started trawling the classifieds and by chance came across a bit of a Gem.
2001 AMK S3 in mineral Grey, 2 owners from new, 85k on the clock. All original paintwork, sunroof, piano black inserts, BOSE, Comprehensive history and completely standard.
Plans already are to take her to RSD in Northamptonshire and have her remapped. Next plan is to source the climate unit with the heated seat switches and with the loom activate the heated seat option
I will probably sit her on a nice set of coilovers and at the moment am debating whether to go the milltek route or stay standard for now. My last s3 was mapped but on standard exhaust
So glad to be back in an S3, I am definately a smaller car person. The S3 has the balance of nice size and a cracking power plant. Here's to a years of happy ownership, I will not be selling her in a hurry :-D
