Spotters Thread For 8V Chassis

Seen a 2014 grey S3 blow a turbo on the M7 (ireland) last week, if the owner is on here i hope the damage was only the turbo, it went in spectacular fashion :(
 
Ara blue s3, Settle North Yorkshire
was it a black ed. sportback with roof rails? i've seen one heading back towards that way from Kirkby direction, noticed because it was identical to mine!
 
67 plate rs3 saloon nano gray I believe the colour is, heading down the 189 past cramlington north bound around 3pm. Lovely motor. Loved the colour and car looked amazing. Slightly cleaner than my car is.
 
Ara Blue S3 at Back of Hill, Stirling this lunchtime. Gave a wave as thought it might of been @Ian66 ?

Followed by a Daytona S3 SB with Quattro badges on the doors passing Stirling Castle

Sorry Barry g did see you at the last moment!! Put hazard lights on

Haha no worries, I did glance in the mirror and thought you may have put the hazards on.

Actually passed another Ara S3 tonight on the way out of Stirling at Ogilvie/FES roundabout.

Well I've got a couple of job offers on the table and one is in Stirling so our paths could cross even more shortly (just don't tell my current boss!)

A couple of offers that’s not bad, I’d be happy with just one

Will keep my eyes peeled then

White 5 door PFL S3, was too busy singing to notice any other features on the car I'm afraid. On the M6 Southbound just going under charnock richard service bridge 7:30 thismorning 16/2/18
 
Saw 2 today ..

Blue S3 in the Costco car park, carbon mirrors, the wing arm alloys or whatever they were called.

Also saw another Ara Blue on the way there, I only caught it at last minute though not sure if was an S3 or RS3... both were "RF" reg numbers.

Loads of spots since my last post but haven't been able to get on and post.

Are blue one on a motorway between Liverpool and Manchester around Mid Day last Sunday.

Not much details but I'm sure you'll know if it was you as you were grinning from ear to ear with thumbs up at me convoying with a blacked out Merc A45 back from cars and coffee Liverpool! :)

And there was also a black sportback s3 at the Liverpool cars and coffee
 
A nice Blue S3 8P with black wheels behind me with "S3 xxx" number plate heading onto A92 at Kirkcaldy West this morning :thumbs up:

Not well up on the colours of that model but it was a vaguely similar shade to Ara

I think 8P had the option of sprint blue which is fair similar to Ara
 
I keep seeing a grey FL S3 at Tesco Stockport when I'm on my way to the auctions reg has S300 in it.
 
Passed a transporter with 4 S3’s heading north somewhere between Northern Italy and Euro Tunnel, can’t remember exactly where.

Road trip!

Dad lives and works north of Milan, so I flew out Thursday driving back yesterday and today.

He has a 630i convertible that’s needs an MOT so we are bringing it home for a few months.

Went from 15c on Friday to -2c now lol
