    Spotters Thread For 8V Chassis

    That 3dr is the EXACT spec to mine. I drive in and around South Ealing 5 days a week. There's an S3 I drive past daily parked by a pub, just before UW and after the mini roundabout near South Ealing station.

    So pops and crackles for the PFL is apparently possible...

    How much would this cost - looking for PFL RS3 sound.

    Chiswick here. I feel this could be me even though I'm PFL... I'm driving through Ealing everyday, I know there's a lot of S3's around the Ealing area, including a VERY loud matte grey with green neons

    My S3 nearly went on fire after a service

    When you see that sight come up from your bonnet the automatic thought in your head is "**** my cars on fire"

    My S3 nearly went on fire after a service

    Sure, but are quality checks not done beforehand? I appreciate there's many cars going in/out the garage and mistakes do happen, but checklists should be in place to avoid things like this from happening. If a car has potential issues due to overheating which is a mechanics error, then why...

    My S3 nearly went on fire after a service

    OK maybe the title is rather dramatic, however driving down a high street seeing this is quite worrying (51 seconds in): A bit of backstory: My S3 was in for a service at West London Audi and to my surprise the thermostat was leaking. It was replaced under warranty and stayed overnight. The...

    Dashcam gem

    Only reason I can think is to try and swerve the road markings, which actually upon rewatching the footage is very dangerous on his behalf. Too much of a swerve especially in an M car and you're plowing into traffic going the opposite way.

    Facelift First RS3 delivery???

    There's a possibility he's under agreement whereby he can't accept any other loan car from another manufacturer, could be wrong but I don't see it being too astray. I'm sure Audi have some sorts of agreements in place for a loaner of such.

    Facelift First RS3 delivery???

    All jokes aside with the clickbait comment, he's figured the YouTube algorithm out and is rapidly growing. In fact I almost praise him for taking advantage of it. Brands love that sort of stuff. Still interesting how they considered him and not the other YouTube boys, when they probably have...

    Facelift First RS3 delivery???

    Good old Archie 'Clickbait' Hamilton. Fortunately it's not his and just an Audi long term lease (which I question how he managed to get that?), otherwise YouTube would be flooded with: *FIRST DRIVE OF MY RS3 SALOON!* (which we'll undoubtedly get anyway...) *PPF ON MY RS3 SALOON!* *WRAPPING MY...

    Dashcam gem

    Driving through Central London late last night, a very noisy M135i tried it on with me, resulting in a nice camera flash for him... :whip: Before anyone mentions it, no I wasn't egging him on or speeding, in fact it was the opposite. I'm not going to be a nob in Central London or any populated...

    Facelift Resonator Delete

    You won't really notice too much of a difference in comfort under low RPM unless you have the windows down. The insulation of the cabin still does a good job of keeping the sound relatively neutral - the only thing I notice on my PFL is a horrible drone when cruising at 3k RPM on the motorway.
