    RS3 8Y General Discussion Thread.

    I’m a big fan of it. Always quite like bmw but this is the first time I’m seriously considering buying one. Saw one in Brooklyn grey with the black packs and I thought it looked lovely. The fact it’s so much cheaper and has a much nicer interior than the rs3 makes it a bit of a bargain

    RS3 8Y General Discussion Thread.

    Rwd they say. I’d imagine on the road the m240 will be quicker, around a track the m2 will be quicker.

    No way that bm is only running 374bhp. BMW underrating again for sure

    What Colour RS3 Have You Ordered?

    It’s a shame they removed nardo. I prefer that to kemora but kemora the best of the rest for me. Daytona looks nice but hides some the contrasting black/carbon accents. Plus my wife hates Daytona for some reason so would never be an option

    Whether they value your business and try to keep your order or arrogantly act like they don’t care

    RS3 v Tesla 3 Performance

    I test drove a model 3 long range on Sunday. Blew me away to be honest. Was well finished inside, seats comfy, tech great, panel gaps etc all seemed fine. Found the one pedal driving so intuitive, the instant acceleration addictive, steered well, rode well. Great all rounder and really left an...

    RS3 v Tesla 3 Performance

    Appreciate the feedback. Tesla ticks most of the boxes for me. Apart from the most crucial, the way it looks. There are a few nice details but as a overall design it is as bland as an 10 year old Hyundai or kia. Stick the rs3 body on top and its sorted

    Cars still coming through with mixed specification (Carbon Saloon) ?

    It’s a shame. I’ve a different car on order but I’d have cancelled if they’d let me buy for list as first owner like in the good old days

    Cars still coming through with mixed specification (Carbon Saloon) ?

    I had a look around that Sunday. Assumed it was a customer car, still had transit stickers on. A shame instead of offering the cars new they are registering and selling used with a profit

    Tracking our new RS3?

    Although the more I think about it the more unlikely I think it is Shrewsbury would get a official launch model. I’d imagine they’re referring to their parts bin special that’s being dropped off

    Tracking our new RS3?

    As I said, they said they have one coming in any day but it’s now been sold and will come in but will just be prepped and out for the buyer rather than going into the showroom. Even though I’m local to Shrewsbury I use Stafford and Crewe for new cars as they order and sell shed loads of s and...

    Tracking our new RS3?

    I was hoping to take a look at Shrewsbury demo launch edition but they have sold it so won’t be going out for demo. Shame as I’d have happily purchased it

    Tracking our new RS3?

    I just wish I had a crystal ball. Now 3 years old the s3 is paid off so if it holds value it costs me nothing to keep it aside from road tax and insurance. But if it drops 2-3k (was worth £2600 less in May) then it’s a much bigger cost
