Im aware there are a few S3 8V in plymouth, but I'm yet to see anyone from here.

There is a red, 5dr in HydePark - driven by an older lady
there is a blue 5dr, always parked outside sippers near pavilions.

Dont forget me! haha

Silver 3dr in Tamerton/Crownhill mostly!

Have only seen a Black 3dr 8V in Tavistock a few months back but pretty sure based on the reg it wasn't local. Have also seen a Blue (not Sepang!!) 8V in the industrial estate where Motor Parts Direct is behind Union Street. Not sure if local but have seen it parked in the same space there on several occasions now.

I'm yet to see you. I got a mate with a 5dr in red too and I never see his either.

Plymouth isn't very big. Where is everyone ****** hiding?!

Does make me wonder where we all hide yeah! I have covered 21k miles since January 2014 and not much of that is motorway driving..I'm always out and about in the city centre and stuff, often in Tavistock/Princetown/Postbridge and Saltash as well. Spend a bit of time around Hollsworthy and Bude regualrly too! Only ever seen a black S3 on my travels through these areas. Although I did park next to a red 5dr S3 in B&Q car park in Crownhill a few weeks back..possibly your mate?
 
Saw not one but two S3's within a couple of minutes of each other on the A5310 going towards Leighton Hospital around 14:30 this afternoon. I was going the opposite way.....bet I wasn't spotted! First was a Daytona SB and the other a black S3......didn't clock if HB or SB.

Surprised you haven't seen mine down in Plymtown.

Down there a lot especially Mutley, centre and Barbican.

I like taking the S3 down to Royal William Yard and having a little blast in the car park. Lots of walls to reflect some great sounds!!

Silver S3 sportback heading to Corby on the A43 @ 6pm Friday 20th (lastnight)
 
Yep, North Leeds as well. I'm always spotting S3 's but don't appear to be on here!
Where abouts?? I'm in alwoodley. Not seen another one knocking around other than one in Bardsey!
 
11:10 today, northbound M6 J21A......Sepang S3 Saloon. Very nice. Was raining. Needs a wash! Wasn't in my car.
 
Friday 27th Nov 8.00 am - Brand new Sepang RS3 turning left and heading south on to the A10 at Cheshunt. I was in right hand lane turning right and heading North
 
Friday morning, M90 onto M8, Sepang saloon giving it some beans. Dodgy spacing on the Reg S3 C YA.
 
White / Amalfi S3
M20 at 07:30 today, reg was #### MG

Inner tips were a disgrace...

Both in a car park off Trafford Warfe road Old Trafford this afternoon:

White S3 SB with black pack and interesting S3 logo on rear doors, reg starting 'VTC'
Red S3 SB reg ending 'KJA' I think

And on M621 Leeds around 6pm, new RS3 in nagaro - very nice indeed.
 
Seen monsoon grey S3 in South Cumbria and a misano red Sport in North Cumbria (oh, wait a minute, that was mine in a shop window reflection doh !) :rockwoot:

Sepang Blue S3 HB "Our Mutual Friend" car park, Stevenage Lunchtime today
 
Sepang Blue 5dr S3 in Swift Park, Glasgow Airport between 10th and 13th Dec.

Feel like I've seen the registration on this forum before!
 
S3 Spango Sportback with chrome bizzo on a 64 plate.................Durrington Bridge 12pm. Fairly sure it's the same one I saw a few weeks back but got a much better look this as it came round a roundabout as I was waiting front of line...............

...................it looked sensational !! :hubbahubba:

White S3 spotted A14 coming off to go Burton Latimer this morning 8am
 
11am Saturday 19th Dec ...Misano red 15 plate RS3 doing about 65mph on the inside lane of the M2, heading north between Canterbury and gillingham
 
Dark blue S3 /Rs3 Sport Back Chester around 3pm DF65???
 
Saturday, around 1pm, saw another Glacier White 64 plate S3 HB parked just around the corner from the McLaren dealer in Knutsford. Was absolutely filthy!!
 
Sepang Blue S3 HB in Renfrew Cross around 13:30, I was going the opposite direction in my Sepang Blue S3 HB... tad surreal!
 
Sepang S3 (SB I think......I was on opposite carriageway) heading towards Hanley on A500 at around 15:25.
 
After seeing nothing noteable for ages, a black 65 plate S3 parked in Tesco Mayflower Retail Park, Basildon. No room for extreme parking there!! Then a striking sepang blue RS3 (reg RS03) gliding accros the Springfield R/A at Boreham interchange, Chelmsford. That was being closely followed by a kid in a slammed technicolour Vauxhall Corsa. I guess we all had to start somewhere
