I'm not so sure. No details as I now realise the rarity of these cars and how much they can be tracked via the net. I sold the first car easily and I'd like this one to go the same way. I'm happy to answer GTR vs RS3 though there isn't really much to say. In my hands on my best 2ish mile lap...

Hi Neil, thanks, sure did once the new garage door was fitted, which I'm glad I did because it's a big beast, I'm already on my second one because the market has been heading upwards which is a rarity for cars. That said I'm not driving around in it everyday, I'm using my generic VAG DSG...

Hello again all, it's been about 8 months since I sold the RS3 so I thought I'd do a little write up on life after the RS3. I'm not going to bang on about the abilities or attributes of other cars here, that would probably just cause a negative response on a single brand site, but I might...

Hello chaps, it's been a while. I think it's worth remembering our bias for listening to the unusual story, more people will be talking about a failure than a car with no problems. I launched my RS3 before and after remap many times on Conti and wide, sticky MPSS tyres. It was the RS3 party...

Fair point on the second thread John and: the Pagid RS4-2 'blue' didn't squeal on road or track. To be clear about one downside they don't like working on discs that have a lot of surface 'rust' if left out in the wet, took a few heavy applications to clear that. Oh and they produce a thick...

I agree about the DS2500 (good on similar weight Evo's and Scooby's) and the Pagid RS4-2 'Blue' are also worth considering. These worked perfectly for me on the RS3 both for road and track and didn't cause much disc wear either. As you've already said forget EBC Redstuff for any track work...

The power of branding over actual performance I fear.

Just as worrying that Audi/VW group are well aware of this problem but now happily fitting this very same system to Golf GTi PP and Seat Leon Cupra 'Nurbrurgring pack' equipped cars...I wonder if that is where all our old sets are ending up? Despite what they say this is no track disc/pad set...

Not directly RS3 related but I'm sure you chaps will forgive me as Audi won once again at Le Mans: BMW wins Le Mans! « Sniff Petrol The ultimate furious pleasuring machine....! Nothing more to add.

61 plate Daytona RS3 at the parking spot above Dinas Mawddwy on Monday afternoon (2pm ish), looked like you were enjoying the view!

John, you will love the MPSS an engineering masterpiece, how they make the outer edge so durable and the wear across the tyre so consistent is beyond my comprehension. I only wish I was on commission from Michelin all the good words I've written about them. Just take a look at how the motoring...

Every tyre change resulted in the same head scratching by the tyre fitters "you want the wider tyres on the front?" whilst they looked at me like some swivelled eyed loon "but on the M3 they wider tyres are on the rear", I did try to explain that is a RWD car. Explaining front biased quattro to...

Tut tut tut some typical RS parking there ;)) you lot think you own the place :lmfao: :friends: Good to see you kept within the lines Ben!

Nope, you've got to view his comments as the entertainment they are, he is playing to his crowd, I quite admire him for that. I'll suggest that this love for the new S3 is actually a ruse so that when he tests it against a later BuMW he can can say that car "is a whole new thing" - check his P1...

Audi S3 revelation: PH Blog - PistonHeads I was probably one of the blind-faith fanboys he talks about! You have to laugh because you know he is saying it for effect and to gain the love of the rwd set on that site. Pretty much the only thing I do agree with is that the S3 makes the new WRX...

At £192.90 that is one expensive cappuccino, at least see if they'll throw in a second cup free.

You are being robbed at £487, here is my 2nd service invoice breakdown (this was a 'free' service so Audi Finance were paying), from my 20,000 mile report: As a few of you have probably got your second services coming up here are the invoiced costs from my service package: Parts: £130.25 (sump...

Exactly, the PX offers they make are an insult seems to be the same whatever the model of car too. Then they expect you to pay top money for whatever they are selling. I'm not sure when or why things have changed the deals I did on a couple of TTs were reasonable in the past but now it's a...

Except at trade in time when they are trained to tell you whatever car you have is now next to worthless and will be difficult to sell... Agree on the RS Q3 everything I've read about it on road and track suggest it has superb handling, a little more lively than the RS3 maybe. They've got...

You can get the flashing hazards under 'emergency braking' feature turned off, which is a must do for any track time as it really confuses other drivers! A little Fiesta ST I ran on track was a nightmare for doing this, every big stop caused the hazards to go disco!
