Unless it's an option I can't see it in this mate.Does anyone know if the cup holders in the centre consul are illuminated on the 8y....just dawned on me as from the videos l have seen ...errr never noticed this.....Stood outside my car tonight prior to driving home.....car was running and of course it getting dark earlier and the 8v's interior still looks mightily impressive....all lit up

I agree, ambient lighting is nice but there has to be a limit.See all that Blackpool ambient lighting that doesnt impress me....been in dozens of Beemers that light up frickin everything in sight matter of fact....in one car Jordan had you could have 3 different colours all going on at the one time
Tron flashback lolI agree, ambient lighting is nice but there has to be a limit.
It could be worse

Alas there's a huge gap in what car I drive a the moment and what I would like to be in next.. lolWhat a pile Mince he blurted out in that review .......He doesnt drive a 8v FL ....it's all to do with what car you drive atm and what car you want to be in next
I wonder how many yards you would get before crashingTron flashback lol
Yards!? That's a bit ambitiousI wonder how many yards you would get before crashing
I went to look at the new S3 saloon today and the paddles turn on manual mode and it does not switch back until you operates the gear knobHas anyone commented on the fact there is no more manual mode? Or is that not the case?
I believe there are still paddles but if its anything like the 8v it will override back into automatic mode after a few seconds?

I think I must be dyslexic though as when I see the user name I keep saying GARBAGE.
Still one of the best interiors.
8Y is terrible. The headlights on the new model look dis-proportionate to the rest of it.

The lack of a power increase is also a big disappointment and it being a tad slower to 60 which I know isn't a massive deal to some people
but when you are spending around 40k plus on the latest model i expect it to have better stats than the out going model .
RS3 held the gear though through to limiter.I went to look at the new S3 saloon today and the paddles turn on manual mode and it does not switch back until you operates the gear knob

I just came here to ask exactly this, was wondering how “manual mode” was selected given that you can’t push the gear selector sideways now.Has anyone commented on the fact there is no more manual mode? Or is that not the case?

pushing back on the gear selector puts it into sport mode or drive mode, it’s sprung loaded so always returns the middle. Selecting manual is done by touching the paddles... this is the first S-Tronic I’ve owned so not sure how that differs to the previous versions
Problem I see here is that you may need manual mode, going up or down a big hill or in the snow, but you wouldn't want manual in sport mode in these conditions surely
The option is still there to use manual in drive mode, I use it often when going up and down hills, admittedly I’ve not tried it in snow yet
Does putting the transmission into Sport mode change anything else in the car or just gear selection speed etc?Problem I see here is that you may need manual mode, going up or down a big hill or in the snow, but you wouldn't want manual in sport mode in these conditions surely

I assume if you hold the transmission in say second, the ratio and engine braking would be the same in D or S?
I think the revs rise because instead of being in say D6 the car drops to S4 for instance, but, D4 or S4 should still be the same.That I don't know and is a good question - I do know that as soon as you put in S mode the revs increase though so assume would be revving higher
All this dicussion on the new 8y...l think the maximum discount of 8-5% and a APR of 6-5% for a S3 nobody in their right mind should even contemplate ordering one...plus other model designations ie edition 1 and vorsprung models will follow

My car was getting some warranty work done today....needless to say l had a bit of a wait this afternoon in the showroom,during this time l inquired about the Vorsprung S3 variant....Dealer had no info at all on this model
really it’s on Audi.co.uk under explore models - not sure about salesman and dealers sometimes - my friend whose a master tech said you should be able to order A3/S3 Vorsprung sometime this month so they must have info
Yeah l have seen the Vorsprung....guff on the Audi website but l was looking for standard specs/ available optional extras and prices.....off to another dealer tomorrow
Ok - not sure there’s going to be many options left are there though as it has pretty much everything on it that you can add add to the standard with the bonus of the bigger VC
Hope not lol personally speaking it would need to have a optional interior design pack ie Red Stitching and a alloy choice
