Facelift Post Pics Of Your Facelift A3/S3 8V In Here

Looks awesome mate!! Bet you're chuffed.. BE alloys look great too, happy I chose them.

These are the 19" V-spokes mate, optional rims. Not the standard BE alloys - but thanks, really pleased with her :)

Because of your crazy new UK tax rules?
I'm in a taxi about 10 mins from picking up my Daytona sedan... then a 500 mile drive back home :)

Don't know if it's just me, but there seems to be a reflection of an angry faced figure on the rear quater of your new S3 mate (shown in the first picture?)

No pictures yet, but I put in an order of A3 Sedan 1.4TFSI S-Tronic. The version here in Finland is called Business Sport. So it will have sport seats with Black/Red trims, led head lights and rear lights and same type sidebars below the doors as the B8 has in the S-line package. I also included Communication pack, adaptive cruise control and keyless entry. Also S-line suspension is on the list and black headlining. Also included is the interior lighting package and aluminum package for the inside trims. The color is Tango red. It will come with standard 17" 5-spoke alloys, but I will replace them with set of 18" which I have in storage. The 17" will be the winter wheels with studless tires.
Production week should be 11 and delivery on week 14 or 15.

744kms later... quick clean to remove bugs, and she's safely in the garage.
Absolutely fantastic drive.. and an excellent way (8 hours of one on one time) to get to know the car... :)

Stunning!
Great journey to familiarise yourself with the car and it's virtually run in already so not long until you can really try it out properly :yahoo:

I've provisionally ordered Daytona. After seeing Vegas Yellow on a showroom car it left me heartbroken. Dealer told me in all fairness that VY resale value hasn't been doing too well so I started looking at Navarra again - however these photos of yours have re-cemented my decision to stick with DG.

Here's my predelivery S3 'wagon' from Downunder ;) Just waiting on its tint and 'Euro Plates' and she'll be ready to go. I like the silver roof rails, they look classy IMO and help set it apart particularly from its A3 and Golf R brethren (I also ski and bike so they will also facilitate roof racks) (my spec btw is Glacier White SB, DSG, SPP2, Matrix Headlights, Assistance Pack, Mirror Pack, Tint and white Euro Plates :) )

The LMS actually looks a lot more road worthy without the black/red decals they revealed it with

Thanks. Just got the grill painted/wrapped and diffuser and mirrors wrapped, I was just trying dechrome it, but ended up doing the rest diffuser as well.
So it does very much look like black edition, bar the wheels.

Absolutely love your car and for some reason your reg too. Really taking to Nardo too. I wanted to go for the BE exterior look but as the car is on PCP I can't get the grill painted :'(

Is the S-line exterior pack standard in the UK delivered cars? It looks like all the cars are either S3's or has that included.
Here in Finland those are so expensive after the car tax that almost none take them.
I changed the seat trims from red to blue.
My Tango Red build week is 10 and delivery possibly 14 or 15.

Summer wheel will be this:

How come you had to have the grille wrapped and painted?
 
Hand over tonight
