    81k…..someone’s having a laugh.

    Lapiz blue obviously. Pano roof and the upgraded lightweights alloys. Back to the blue and black theme as per the old S3. Colin picked one up earlier in the year after he moved on his 8Y RS3 to fund a house build. Not many 8.5s around town so should be more exclusive than the older ones...

    81k…..someone’s having a laugh.

    Cheers Carl. Has the torque splitter. Basically all options bar leather (seats are more comfortable and heat up quicker with the alcantara style), £3.5k akra exhaust and carbon inlays. With the DTD discount basically got all options thrown in. Car is built and on way to the port so 3-4 weeks...

    81k…..someone’s having a laugh.

    My head ruled over my heart. I lusted over a 8.5Y RS3 for months, but even with the DTD discount, I couldn't make the figures work. As it was going to be PCP, more disposable my/family's way is more important right now. I even looked into 8Y models with limited mileage, but finance is just...

    8.5Y RS3

    @Japper_ARS3 heading in on Friday for a look around the red one they have in. Drive the deal have gotten back to me so I can go in armed with that. Anyone want a 2019 X3M?

    8.5Y RS3

    Now, now. From that rear 3/4 view I actually think the FL looks amazing.

    8.5Y RS3

    I see Aberdeen Audi now have at least 1 car in, so will go for a nosey. Will also ask at the time if I place order now, will they waive the price increase and keep today's price. Then hit them with the drive the deal pricing. Be a bit of fun for 5 minutes in a dull January watching the boy's...

    8.5Y RS3

    Just had a quick look myself at Drive the deal. The ~10% discount after options isn't actually that bad a deal. I can guarantee if I asked any Audi dealer for 10% off you'd get laughed at. Good to have the quote in hand when you go in though. Just depends if Audi dealers honour it or revert...

    8.5Y RS3

    I was in by Aberdeen Audi at the weekend. They've got 3 coming in in a few weeks, all Sportbacks. None have the buckets specced, which is disappointing as I really wanted to try them out. No other RS models in the showroom either. Patiently waiting for the call for a test drive.

    8.5Y RS3

    If the S3 FL can get revised interior with a nod in places to better materials (bar the gear selector), the the hope is that this will get carried over to the RS. Secretly hoping the 300 Performance models were a trial for what could become the RS FL, with ceramics still as an option. RS4, 5...

    8.5Y RS3

    I've been away from Audi for a good while now, having previously owned a couple of S3s. Like @HereWeGo I currently run a X3M, but looking to get back into a smaller, fast, capable car. I'm waiting patiently to see if the facelift provides some option tweaks. A small bump in power would be...

    What's this? a Audi Golf RS-R3?

    I'm a die hard Audi fan and loved my S3's. I've driven both pre and facelift RS3 and they are amazing, but I still feel it's all about the engine. Now, if VW roll out an uber Golf with the 2.5 lump I'll be all over it like a horrific rash. I'm currently in the facelift Golf GTI and I am still...

    Facelift Goodwood Festival of Speed - RS 3 launch photos

    Good photos, thanks for posting. I was always going for Nardo and having seen a few locally, thought I was sold. However, those Floret pics look great as you say with the Black pack. And it's practicality for me, so Sportback. Looks ace.

    2017 - S5 Incomming!

    Chimp, which broker did you go with? I'm working through a quote with Orangewheels, but I'm toying with changing over to a A5/S5 if the deals are right.

    RS3 Saloon or Sportback

    I'm cool with those saloon pics. A small drop, possibly some spacers and that will look just fine.

    RS3 Saloon or Sportback

    What? This statement is utter nonsense.

    RS3 Saloon or Sportback

    I really do like the look of the saloon, but in those chops above of the SB it does look good. It is only a chop after all. I would prefer the all rounderness of the SB, but now finally in a position to buy the RS, if the saloon is first to market, then so be it.

    Retrofit the TTRS wheel. It is lush.

    RS3 Saloon Unveiled

    As per other thread, the (slightly) updated cabin will make a big difference and with the higher output it will be a great car. Looks-wise, not bad at all. Slightly lowered and better offset wheels and it'll be very aggressive. Front end looks great, way better than those squished, grainy...

    No RS3 orders being taken

    Personally, I think it looks good. Was worried about the front, not so now. As ever, a slight drop, better wheels and offset and it'll look 10 times better. If they did it as a SB, I'd have that as it's more practical. But, for me, I can again buy a RS3, so I'll have one of these. In...
