Audi officially has the S3 saloon at unladen 1450 kg and the hatch the same but stated as kerb weight.
I'm led to believe unladen is completely empty and dry of fluids. Whereas kerb weight includes oils and half a tank of fuel and most European makers include 75kg for a passenger aswell.
So anyone know how much more is the saloon? I'd be surprised if they were identical.
 
According to the brochures I have the unladen weights kg are:

S3 3dr Manual 1395
S3 3dr Stronic 1415

S3 Sportback Manual 1425
S3 Sportback Stronic. 1445

S3 Saloon Manual 1430
S3 Saloon Stronic. 1450
 
Andy, thanks for that, interesting information. Not sure that I would have guessed which was heaviest.
 
I would of thought there was a bigger difference then that just goes to show
 
5kg over the sportback, I just make sure I've had my morning poo before I get in and we're level ;)

Unless the S3 Sportback owner also has a poo first thing too :lick:

I didn't realise that S3's were over 200kg heavier than my 1.4 COD.

I guess the extra 160bhp and 4WD more than make up for it!
