Well, I know I don't appear on here that much, but I thought I'd share something. :icon_thumright:
I've done probably close on 4,500 miles in the last 4 weeks in my s3, 2500 of which were in the last week around europe.
Even doing 670miles in a day acoss germany and poland at upto 239kph wasn't tiring and I didn't get back ache once. That 239kph (on the gps) was in my standard 210bhp S3 with well over 100kgs of crap + me and over 107,000miles on the clock. I think it would have gone even faster but stuff kept getting in the way.
It then proceeded to be great over some of the worse roads in europe and also survived 4 laps of the ring without any issues other than slightly warm brakes.
Needless to say the last few weeks has reminded me why I think the S3 is such a great all round car.
It does feel like some bushes are probably twatted again and the wipers have given up but hey hoo it survived.
Anyone else been reminded why they love there S3 recently?
