Hi guys!
Rob from E.Yorkshire - Just 2 days ago I purchased a Misano 2012 RS3, 33K miles from Approved Leeds Audi and I can honestly say its by far the best purchase I have and will EVER make, What an absolute weapon!
My previous decent cars were a Cupra K1 and more recently a B5 S4 but the RS3 would leave them both in its wake without breaking a sweat, the power in these things is literally unreal.
I was originally looking at a similiar aged TTrs but I was struggling to find a good, low mileage spec'd one which was S-Tronic and within my price range so the next best option was the RS3.
The only pic I have for now:
I've had a look through the forum regarding the recalls and a few have been done on the car which is the 39E1: Haldex, 661G: Offside inner wheel duct, 46F8: Offside front brake duct and also 4716: Brake caliper, brake pads and brake discs, The others did not need to be replaced according to the dealership.
I will be getting the car booked in at JJB in York for a health check for my own peace of mind along with an oil change and filter.
Something else that I've been search the forum and net for is folding mirrors, I would have thought with it being an RS, it should as standard have folding mirrors but in this case it doesnt. I have no button down on the drivers door to turn so the mirrors fold in, and also in the MMI there is no information regarding this, does this seem right?
Anyway enough talking and more browsing,
Look forward to dealing with you guys for general info and discussions and also cheap parts!
Cheers!

. I had quite a few looks in the works car park this morning as I rolled up and people saying what a gorgeous car/colour combo it is, asking what the BHP was etc and also a few youngish lads in an old vauxhall gave me the thumbs up which is great, but at the same time made me think how much of the bad attention these cars get and since I got home I've been hunting online for the best/highly recommended alarms/immobiliser on the market.
