Solar Orange Audi S3 - out with the old, in with the new

:(

Oh my.......:) Fair play to you for putting a picture up of it haha. Bet that's interesting to drive after 2 S3's. Sensible decision though with the house purchase.
 
Epic lol.

At least I know who to call if I need excessive amounts of sweets. :jump:
 
Something to put a smile back on my face :blush:

My boyfriend picked this up on Thursday, the plate belongs to the previous owner, I did try and talk him into letting me put L222RYN on it but he's sticking his own plate on it, boooo! Took it out last night for a bit and it's absolutely amazing, the sound off it is phenomenal and it is ridiculously responsive and quick. It's standard other than a Y-pipe and running 540bhp for now. Sorry but a bit of the Audi love has gone in favour of Nissan :laugh:

Shame about the Audi going so soon; nice to hear you are doing the sensible thing and looking at property; needed to remind myself "never hit a woman" when I saw the double-deckers; and no need to apologise about the Nissan love - just saw they're down to around £35k in Autocar, so GTR is now top of my list for replacing the 8P in a couple of years (it was going to be an RS4, but a mate's got a ~600bph GTR and it's unbelievable).
 
OMG Lauryn, I hope you steal the keys for your BF's GTR at every opporchancity, ..I know I WOULD if it was me, lol! My other half has a Freelander 2 and I never feel inclined to pinch the keys for it. What a machine, I hope you and your man enjoy every mile and every smile in it!!! :wub: xx
 
Saw this or one very similar near Braehead shopping centre today, was it you? Looked nice

He's happy to let me drive it, I'm at home debating whether or not to crack open the Baileys Biscotti I've wanted for so long, or stay sober and go a blast in it later...:whistle2:

That is a one big smile Peachy:wub:

Big cheeser!

I think the earlier models are floating around £35k right now, my boyfriend waited a good few months before buying this as he had a very specific idea of age/miles/spec so sadly it wasn't as cheap as that, but after driving it I would definitely have one of these over an RS4, 4WD as well. With a map and exhaust this should go to 600bhp as well, lovely stuff :)

I'm not sure where he's been today, it still has B15TTO on it so it would have been him if you clocked that plate. COO2E is going on it within the next few days.

Cheers!

Sold this earlier in the week, thanks for all the nice comments on the car :)

Thats the spirit, well done Lauryn! Can't avoid destiny!!!
 
Fantastic news, Lauryn! Can't wait to see the piccies of your new baby. You're Audi through and through and there's nothing wrong with that!!! :wub: xx
 
women..always changing their mind!
 
Cheers everyone, didn't make it to the bank in time so I'll pick it up on Tuesday now and of course post some photos once I've given it a clean and it's daylight :)

I don't really need a second car so not sure how long I will keep it for but I picked it up for a fair price so why not, it's a nice weekend toy.

Thanks
Lauryn

Thanks Sandra, I'll start a new thread once I have it and post some photos of it. Nothing special to see, its totally standard other than the grille being painted black, otherwise it's just a clean white model. I had a look on Autotrader though for a nosy and there don't appear to be any pre-facelift white models for sale other than one that was wrapped? Surely not :huh:
 
Resurrecting an old thread - the white S3 was sold 2 days after I bought it haha!

After owning my Nogaro Blue 8L S3 for over a year and a half I've decided to upgrade, to an 8P S3 :)

I picked this up yesterday, it's a 2008 Audi S3 in Solar Orange, 21,000 miles, full heated leather, sat nav, privacy glass, flat bottom multifunction steering wheel etc, it's absolutely beautiful.

Here are a few pictures:

It's a little ostentatious but I like that lol. No real plans for it other than a possible remap and maybe some different wheels, that's it really.

C&C welcome :)

Cheers
Lauryn
Deposit on it yesterday lol :yellowrs4:(I know thread is 11 yrs old but just saw this & well...
