Facelift Looking at an S3

[Phil-1]

I was looking at a White 19 plate S3 today. It has some issues but what surprised me was that the shark fin aerial was black and not white like on my A3. Is this normal or is there more to it?

They changed from being colour coded to black on the later ones, so it's normal

Thank. It’s not the car for me over priced and had a bump, front grill cracked and broken. Both from wheels needed a refurb and the paint looked dull/flat. Will keep looking

A member on here (@jassyo06) is selling his S3 saloon, cracking car and if it’s in your budget I’d snap his arm off.

17 plate £32,000. 40K miles Needed a new front grill and lower bumper painted. Rear valance needs replacing sure to a bump/dent in it. Scratch from filler flap to rear lights. Both front wheels needed a refurb.

Thanks I’m only window shopping at the moment seeing what’s out there and what I will get for my money.

That is crazy money mate I haggled mine down to £35,000 from £40,688 for a brand new 19 plate car

Mines going up for sale if there going for that money

get in the queue

If a damaged 17 plate car going for £32k my pristine 18 with 19k should be worth a lot more maybe £36k which is roughly what I paid new.
Mate if you are chucking that kinda money about for a damaged used you can buy mine. Give you a forum discount

 

[Bells]

Yeah guaranteed it’s £22k and not £33k for a 17 plate, I got about £25k for my well spec’d S3 with 30k miles back in Sept. £33k isn’t far off used RS3 money

Your looking for over 26k for a 19 plate onwards and even then it will probably have minimum options fitted.

19 plate models have dire options on them.....very few even have SS seats....again it all depends on what spec you want...and your budget.... horses for courses as they say...MY19 cars are probably the least desirable....as a Armitage Shanks bog flushing is louder than it's exhaust sound on start up

My19 as SS seats and even as the design pack so i'am in the one of the few club who as them i'am gonna use it as a selling point when the time comes
Can't argue with the exhaust note being poo tho its not a patch on the 66/18 plate S3s and it also doesn't have the Dsg fart either

If I were looking for a used S3 I'd be looking in one direction! Forum member on here who's name starts with a j and ends with a 6, will be selling his soon!
