    Wheel Bolt Covers Issue

    Next rs3

    Information from my local dealer suggests launch of the new RS3 will be sometime around June 2015. Like the current model, numbers will be limited, my own dealer is only being allocated 6 with one them being a demonstrator. So I took the plunge and reserved one!
