That's the Audis I remember...flame spitting monsters that dominated the Rally scene from the minute they hit the gravel. Not 4 pot compromised s*itboxes

Being an 80s child, the sound I associate with Audi is the 5 cylinder and one of my first cars was a 1981 Audi 100 5E when I was 21...looking back I must've looked a **** giving it the beans in a huge 4 door family saloon but the noise of that 5 cylinder made me feel like Stig...

Thanks for all the good info guys. When I had the 8L S3 there was a lot of haters because I was moaning about how slow they are as standard...That is a fact...power to weight ratio worse than a 1,9 205 GTI...but V6 owners seem to 'get it' for want of a better phrase. I don't want or need to do...

Hi guys. Finally got rid of the S3...buyer was over the moon with it...but it was his first turbo car. We have a 2004 A3 Quattro Sport with the DSG box. The DSG box gets a lot of criticism but I gotta say, I couldn't change gear anywhere near as quickly or as precisely as it can so we're...

You've hit the nail on the head. We're in the realms of silk purses out of sow's ears and t*rd polishing.

Cow s*it smells nicer than dog s*it and cat s*it but I wouldn't eat any of them

Exactly!!!

In what way...that it only engages when it detects loss of traction from front wheels...or that you need a football pitch to donut it in.

Chill out geez...no ranting...just a bit of discussion about the pros and cons of certain motors...wanna buy an S3:smiley::nogarors4:

Some I do some I don't....takes me about 10 years to like a BMW...absolutely hated the E36 M3 when it first came out cos they were nearly always driven by Estate Agent tools....so now I am cool about 2007ish V10 M5s but hate the new ones...but give it 10 years and they'll probably grow on me

The one I miss most is my E30 325i Sport...can you believe I sold it 10 years ago now for £750....just because it had a misfire and I didn't know as much about cars back then. If I had it now...I would just fire another engine in it and gaze at £5000 worth in my barn :tearsofjoy: Very well...

She's a beaut...brings back memories man my RC was black and my other was white...loved the white

I wouldn't have another Impreza though...been there and done that. Joined a forum once when I had a Blue Prodrive STI and agreed to meet some of the members at a local car show down our way. I couldn't get parked near them which was good because when I eventually found where they all were...all...

I've had 2 ST185 Gt-Fours...one of which was an import RC model...they handle beautifully even if a touch on the heavy side. Better built than an Impreza hands down. Wish I had kept the RC...it had suspension on it that was probably worth more than the car and was adjustable in every single way...

Thanks mate :respekt:

Ahhh the old Veyron argument to defend Haldex...I'll wager that it's a better designed/evolved and far more expensive unit in a £1million car than the trash in a £1500 S3 so at least the Veyron won't need a football pitch to do a donut. And as for most S3s being effed now...that is most likely...

Boy do people hate a little truth about the S3....trust me guys...go and drive a car with a proper 4WD setup like perhaps the ones Audi used to rally instead of sulking about some home truths. I have one and I am laughing about it because it's 14 years old now so too late to complain to Audi...

I gave it the beans out the back on the gravel...luckily I have an acre out there...because with the shocking FWD bias the understeer is so ridiculous you could turn the Titanic in the circle left by the S3...You have to keep snatching the handbrake to get the back out...Impreza can pretty much...

Ah you got me there Tufty...I am guessing a half Bose as I don't see any RCA leads or anything like that and there are only 2 pugs going into the back of my original Audi headunit...there is one spare socket between the 2 on the back of the headunit...so perhaps half Bose...boy do I feel cheated...
