    RS3 Build Tracker Spreadsheet

    Not too sure I'd prefer an M4 to the RS3 Had the previous F80 M3 and swapped it for the 8v RS3 Would take the RS3 every day of the week Plus the new M4 has one of the most hideous front ends out there at the moment.

    Car arrived this morning on the trailer from Lincoln Audi. It had 39 miles on it so I think someone has had a spin in it and also my request for the transport covers to be left on the car was ignored. Absolutely delighted with the Kemora grey I have to say. The pics online do not do it justice...

    Got mine first thing this morning off a trailer and when the guy jumped in and started it up I was very surprised at how quiet it was. Much quieter than the Mrs car on start up M140 which has a lovely growl. Good if you don't want to wake the neighbours up I suppose but could definitely be a bit...

    I've seen you mention the discount a few times now. Guys have got the message and a few have got the same through MSG or similar. Bad form to continually mention this and I actually respect the guys who are so mad for the car that they pay overs.

    Absolutely Looks are important but it's about the engine performance and handling of the thing. The rest is window dressing.

    Different cars though. 2015 GTS would be a 981 and the noise from that is pretty legendary amongst the Porsche guys. The 4litre Jassy has there was the replacement of the 2.5Turbo 718GTS and yeh the engine note on that is a big step up from the 2.5 but evidently not quite upto the 981 note. Not...

    GAP Cover

    Is there any point in Gap insurance at the moment. Market value of your car is at least RRP and your insurance will give you market value with a total loss

    That looks fantastic. Brave choice but just rewards. I don't know if anyone chose the yellow Carbon as the yellow did look great too in the early shots. For me a big deciding factor on carbon saloon is the contrast with the black roof. It was always something that I loved about the M3(Carbon...

    I know what you mean Jassy as I'm rocking a Kia at the moment . But the contentment of driving around in a **** motor doesn't last when the Spring arrives. Just changes your outlook and you shed the winter fur. Game on after that.

    Amazing colour. Possibly more suited to RS4 but I'd take that every day over the standard green.
