    Selling My S3 - Options?

    I have always sold my cars privately, except for my Focus RS back in Oct as Cazoo paid me silly money. If you write a decent advert and price it sensibly on Autotrader you will find a buyer. If someone is actively looking for an S3 then yours is ideal as it’s history will be more appealing than...

    SQ5 Creaking parcel shelf

    If it had the service only 6 months ago and was deemed acceptable however now the only option is an expensive replacement then I’d say you’ve got a strong case. My roof creaks at various levels of annoyance, depending on weather and road surface. I’m hoping I can sort it with a clean and lube...

    SQ5 Creaking parcel shelf

    I would think you’ve got a good argument as the panroof is a well documented issue. Audi offer a “sunroof service” which shows it needs ongoing maintenance, something that I’ve never known needed in previous cars.

    3-door vs 5-door - owner opinions? any regrets/issues?

    If you're financing it then last time I looked you were getting £2500 deposit contribution from Audi on the 3dr S3 rather than just £1000 on a Sportback.

    New S3

    To be honest I'd recommend you read up and understand the progress of PCP and the scale of payment v equity a little more before you get tied into a deal you're not fully happy with, but here's my understanding. As for the deal, go onto the Internet brokers and get a price(usually around 12%...

    Worrying times,,,,

    I had to cancel my S3 order last summer and I was properly gutted but you soon realise it's just a car and there are far more important things in life! Do I still want an S3?........yes, do I want a £34k PCP deal?........HELL NO!! Good luck with your job.

    Tough Times - Change S3 to what??

    Being in a similar position and facing a potential financial squeeze a few months ago I bailed out of my S3 order. I was gutted at the time but now I'm so glad I did even though my squeeze never came! I ended up getting a mk5 R32 which is an absolute peach, far more characterful than my...

    selling car privately

    I sold my S3 privately a few months ago and I got the buyer to get the cash out of his bank in front of me and then keep hold of it until we put it straight into my bank. I didn't even lay hands on the cash, that way there's no issues and any fake notes are highlighted by the cashier. I...

    Trade-in advice

    You could also just reset the service light and hand it over to them. Devious I know but these firms make thousands and have ruined the px prices dealers now offer so let them sort it!

    A message to the R32

    What an idiot, he should of known all that character is heavy and slows the R32 down :tonguewink: I think many a boy racer will be embarrassed by an S3 and their straight line speed!!

    S3 PCP querie

    S3 PCP querie

    My previous S3 was my first............and last PCP deal. They are a fantastic way for people to get into new cars that they can't afford to purchase outright and if you're happy to be in a cycle of constantly paying a monthly figure then it works very well. Putting in a large deposit is fine...
