    Sport or S line?

    Think you’ve read it wrong mate… The idea is to buy an 8P1 and convert to 8P2 S-line or S3 – doing this il be buying 8P2 bonnet and bumper so no doubt they’ll come in a different colour – however once wrapped in a vinyl obviously no one will know Doing this...

    Sport or S line?

    Im in the same boat here mate, my budget is around 7-8k too! Im more interested in the car mechanically than anything else! I want low mileage and service history - dont care if its the bobby basic model or the split grill - will be making it a 8P2 s line anyway and the conversion looks...

    PD TUNING REMAP SUNDERLAND

    On PD's site they quote 50bhp increase over standard mate Messaged these this morning and they are brilliant at replying quickly! Quoted me £499 inclusive of VAT, all labour costs and 2 hour dyno tuning session (lifetime warranty too!) seems brilliant - just need to buy an A3 now! LOL

    Is the A3 for me? Will TDI suit me? Help me out *PLEASE READ*

    Sorry for the really random question folks…. When I bought my RX8 to make sure it was healthy I carried out a compression test (Rotary engine test) to make sure the engine was a good one – as with all rotaries loss of compression = eventual total engine failure/failure of seals...

    Is the A3 for me? Will TDI suit me? Help me out *PLEASE READ*

    Thanks for all the input people, really appreciate everyones comments I realise that its unfair to expect so much of the Audi and to try and compare it to a RWD Petrol, thats just wrong.

    Is the A3 for me? Will TDI suit me? Help me out *PLEASE READ*

    Good write up mate, thanks for that The running costs of the 140 just seem brilliant - a dream for such a beautiful car! How much is a full tank of fuel btw? Do you use premium diesel? Again, brilliant advice Paul! Will be remembering that definitely 60MPG!! ****** hell haha, most i've...

    Is the A3 for me? Will TDI suit me? Help me out *PLEASE READ*

    I wasnt sure if an LSD would be needed or not, as the 140 isnt the best 0-60 I just wasnt sure if it still had a problem with traction from standing start? From experience of hot hatches with adequate power in the front wheels, I just dont wanna be chewing up tyres! Yeah the RX8 is a lovely...

    Is the A3 for me? Will TDI suit me? Help me out *PLEASE READ*

    Appreciate the fast reply mate... Got to say im a little gutted at the lack of LSD but I think i've been spoilt with my rx8 and the standard equipment it comes with (Xenons, LSD, heated seats ETC) so the A3 is going to take some getting used to, but over 400 miles to a tank will be seriously...

    I might be joining you soon! Potential buyer *PLEASE READ*

    Hi People. A LONG time since I last came on here. Nearly 2 years ago when I was considering an A3 – Needless to say I test drove a 2.0t S-Line and it ticked a few boxes but I also test drove a lot of other cars. I ended up getting an RX8 and for the past 2 years it’s been the most pleasurable...

    Im glad to hear that the tuning isnt really affected. Any posts will be definitely welcome :) Well guess im going to find out on the day. That will really affect my decision to purchase the car, if it DOESNT have paddles then im not in need of a test drive. As I wont be wanting the car, so im...

    Led Headlights on pre facelift?

    Really appreciate the explanation :) Im sure that it would be easy for someone to modify the lights and rectify this issue? They look so nice! No-one could ever call them chavvy or anything of that nature (as I would if someone had them on a Ford Focus lol) but on an actual new Audi! Yes...
