    Yes, thats about what id offer to be honest, 12-12.5k, and ill keep an eye on the service schedule also, its a deal if it has bose and a centre armrest, chrome mirrors would be a bonus!!!!

    Got 15k to spend, and cant find a decent S3!

    The M3 for me is a defo no go, and the R32, well, it just seemed a lil heavy, and even though its a nice drive, the S3 just seems more exciting, anyway, ive come across this, few nice options, think i may have found what im after, hoping its as clean as he says...

    Cant keep away, what do you guys think of this?

    i think its a bit on the pricey side for not having an audi history, just a nice color combo, similar examples are going for approx 12k on the autotrader, grrrr, i dont know what to do!!!!!

    Cant keep away, what do you guys think of this?

    any more advice or info? all previous S3's ive had have all had a fully documented audi history, i just dont know of any indies near me that id trust with my car thats all, previously all work carried out outside of servicing meant a drive down to oxford to see AMD

    Cant keep away, what do you guys think of this?

    how about the story with the old cambelt then, and the service schedule, he claims it hasnt been done, and its a local garage that have serviced it? Through previous experience, we all know about ARB's etc...... But would this put you off at all? Id prob get audi to carry out the full 40k...

    Cant keep away, what do you guys think of this?

    Hi All, Further to my previous thread, wanted to know what you guys think of this deal then, he wants 13k, it has a specialist service schedule (mainly) seems to be a fairly clean example, just wanted to know what you guys think before i make the journey to leeds...

    Got 15k to spend, and cant find a decent S3!

    Drove the M3 today, and to be honest, i prefer the R32, but, ive come across this, http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/245491.htm exact color combo i wanted, low miles etc.... You guys think this is a fair deal? Thanks again

    Got 15k to spend, and cant find a decent S3!

    Ive been already to see that car, for the price, i believe it to be under spec somewhat, no toys on it at all, and the interior on the car is a total mess, the leather looks like a whale has been flapping about on it, on all my cars, i treat the leather every 2 weeks, and hand polish each week...

    Got 15k to spend, and cant find a decent S3!

    ok, so it seems that the R32 compared to the S3 is a lil sluggish? not as nimble? i kinda got that impression when i drove one today, what do you guys think of another S3? Has to be mint, with low miles, anyone know of any for sale? And as for the M3, is it a bit overdone now would you say?

    Got 15k to spend, and cant find a decent S3!

    you guys are right, the S3 interior wise looks very dated now, not many keepers have looked after the leather, and now most cars look pretty worn out, even if they have done sub 30k. I drove a R32 today, and the power was amazing, handling wise was good also, im due to drive a M3 tomorrow, the...

    Got 15k to spend, and cant find a decent S3!

    Hi All, Well, i thought i could keep away, but after 3 S3's, im potentially looking for my 4th, however after trawling the autotrader, pistonheads, etc.... i cant seem to find one with low miles (sub 35-40k) with nice extras (sunroof, sat nav, chrome mirrors, 18" alloys etc) ive been looking...

    thanks for that, any other comments or suggestions, looked around on the autotrader, couldnt find a car with similar mileage with that spec for the money, so fingers crossed!
