Hi everyone,
Currently drive a Q5 and the Mrs has a Volvo V40 which is a lease car from work which will be going back soon as she is on mat leave. Considering an S3 to replace the V40 and the Q5 will be the Mrs' daily drive with our son. Came from a dreamscience'd Focus ST prior to the Q5 and am missing the fun I used to have but don't like the new ST appearance / interior wise, now I've been in an Audi cabin for the last 4 years.
Thinking of a new S3 in Missano red with the following options.
Stronic
Extended mono.pur interior finish
Tech Pack High with connect
Comfort Pack + adaptive cruise
Folding and Heated Mirrors
Privacy Glass
Interior Light Pack
Non Smoking Package
Aluminium Roof Rails (Think it sets the look of the car nicely - wont ever have a roof box on the S3!)
Pan Roof (Any reports of rattles on the S3 etc?)
Audi Magnetic Ride (Seen the reports about lift off understeer - does this address this?)
B&O Sound system (Have this in the Q5 and its excellent)
Any thoughts on the spec - anything you would / wouldn't have if you ordered again?
Coventry Audi have offered an 11% discount - is this good or is there more to be had?
Also would like the virtual cockpit mooted to be coming soon to the S3 - does anyone have any ideas when the facelift version is ready to order?
Thanks all!
