The ally mirror caps are/was a £500+vat optional extra if I remember correctly? So not all S3s had them.

I thought all facelift models had Ali mirrors, didn't know they were an option, you learn something every day.

For a really clean decent one you looking around 100 000 to about 120 000 rand if you can find one...Which is about £6300.00...cars are really expensive here especially ones that are now becoming limited!..

I'm actually trying to find a set of these mirror caps...seen a few on eBay but with import duties it becomes really expensive

What a beautiful car, I would be scared to drive it in case it got dirty or breathed on by someone. I have found my christmas present though :) although mine doesn't have the rear wiper.

I'm sure the weather in SA helps to keep it in such good order, unlike our wet, salt covered roads in Blitey.

It honestly does man it's rare to actually see any of these cars with rust ever. Unless they stay close to the ocean and never wash your car..
