I've had my S3 now for a few month's and I'm very, very pleased with it /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif
I thought I'd share some of my thought's seeing as I have a bottle of white on the go and the bird's out in town;
WHINGES
When it's raining and the car's sat, when I open the door I get a load of water come down onto the seat! Annoying seeing as you're sposed to keep those Recaro's bone dry!
Talking of those Recaro's they're pretty stiff to move aren't they, if you're letting someone into the back...
Tinted rear mirror is a great idea, but you can't tell if it's a Jam Sandwich tailing you at night! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
I seem to be getting some deposit's on the rear of the car which I have to assume are coming from the exhaust...probably normal but I've not had it on any other car. Kind of like soot...not a lot, but it's there.
Between 1-3 thousand the car hardly move's. From the light's you have to give some rev's and slip the clutch a little....maybe I just need to learn how to drive my S3 properly. I'm not mechanic by any stretch but a friend mentioned turbo lag??
Has anyone ever set off the (standard) alarm....Hmmm scary
Cracked my windscreen...I heard the smallest DINK doing about 90 on the M6, saw a crack and the thing's growing /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cry.gif...and idea's how much this is going to cost me???
PRAISE
The S3 look's like a weapon. When I was thinking about buying one someone posted here that sometime's you give the car a glance and it look's OK, other time's you catch an angle where it look's sleek, or low fat and mean, or plush and expensive. Sometime's it's like owning 3 different car's!
You can't argue with an Audi interior....
I'm still "finding" thing's on my S3. The other night I got into my car and my mate asked "where's that light coming from then"? That was the first time I noticed the light's under the door's to illuminate the pavement for you when you get in. Gotta love Audi attention to detail.
The car's nowhere near as bad on fuel as I thought it might be, especially on the motorway...I'm in a fortunate (sales) postion where my employer is silly enough to pay me to sit in my S3 most of the day /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Anyway, like I said, I'm well pleased with my S3 and it's great to read your post's regarding them..thank's for all the info!
See ya,
