Have some minor swirls and a very faint scratch (not deep but noticeable) on my S3. I've applied C1 and Exo on it 6 months ago, so the finish should still be pretty hard and reasonably thick. What's the best methods of removing these without taking off the nano layer? Very fine cutting polish...

Standard Sportback in Sepang Blue with S-Tronic, Satnav, Silver Roof Rails, Rain/Light Sensors, Heated Door Mirrors, Black Nappa and a days of detailing with GTechniq C1/Exo. Also got Pirelli SottoZerro's on the wheels which I would chuck in as well as standard tyres. Was on the road 24th Sept...

Having a total rethink on finances - particularly with the way the oil and gas industry is. It's a big outlay for me every month when there's so much uncertainty around.

Yeah, that's the problem I would have I guess.

Thinking of bailing out on the S3 for a couple of reasons - nothing to do with the car as it's awesome. Trying to gauge interest in whether it would be something that would sell quick. Reg Sep 24th 2015 Sepang Blue S3 Sportback Anyone want one now instead of 3/4 month wait?

You sure it's not from something else that builds up the muscles in your arms?

My effortless driving technique. V8 on the other hand, must be on the Red Bull as he should be constantly tired from fighting for his dear life every time he approaches a roundabout.

No, normal is normal. What someone thinks is normal, is quite often the case, excessive. Drinking 20 pints a night may seem 'normal' to some, but in reality, it's excessive. Approaching a corner at a speed that is just not conducive to grip levels, may be normal for some, but it's probably...

Jesus wept - talk about stereotyping an audience. I didn't buy the car to just have an S3 badge - I can tell you that for nothing. And I didn't add on the bells and whistles as I was on a mission to keep the monthly payments the same as my previous PCP deal. So no mag ride, no 19" wheels.... my...

£31k.... but let's not go there again as you are obviously hellbent on referencing this figure.

The question I would rather pose is, does it have understeer under normal circumstances? The answer would be a resounding no. I've yet to encounter it, but then, I'm driving it with patience and control... I am not charging into a corner, rather setting the car up to power round the corner. Any...

They were giving me 3K less for my A6 as a trade in. Same John Clark that owns both franchises. It would have just been shipped down the road to Audi, but you'd have thought it was Peter Vardy you were dealing with, such was the mickey mouse attitude. The young sales lad was full of p*sh as...

Why do you feel the need to always bring this up? Who cares what else is on the market that may have fractional better handling characteristics? Not me - I'm happy with the S3. Happy that after a day of driving it, knowing I would get a decent trade in, knowing that Audi's finance sh*ts all over...

I doubt many will disagree with that if they're being really honest. But it doesn't understeer round roundabouts at 30mph mate. Come on! It just doesn't. It can drive quite happily, all day long, and chew the road up, without getting out of shape - that's the 'safe, sanitised' design you refer...

How old are you just out of interest?

More 'laddish' and lower residual. To be honest, that 5% better handling, I can live without thanks. When I come to trade in the S3, I think the cash in my bank account will speak volumes.

Boy at the VW wouldn't give me enough for my trade in and thought that just because he had a pre-registered one on his forecourt, I should be grateful. He lost the deal - never even bothered taking the demo out. Such contempt is why I would rather deal with Audi in Aberdeen.

Oh yes, cause a few car magazines use the term, it's ok. Think it was Peugeot that tried to re-surface the hot hatch buzzword. You may call them that.... they don't make cars like they used to when I were a lad.

Mine doesn't. V8 is a computer program, designed to criticise every post about S3. Nanu, nanu, shazbot!!

The term 'hot hatch' was an 80's and 90's thing mate. Some have tried to recreate that look and feel. But as I said, it'll never be recreated due to different engineering methods, regulations etc. You crash a prpoer hot hatch (an XR2, XR3, Pug, GT Turbo, AX etc), there was no coming back from...
