Picked up my A3 Sportback this week! Already in love with it.
Congrats. Looks a little light for Scuba blue - is it another colour?

Ive got some plans for this anyone wanting to follow the build on this and progress come follow me on IG 
BBS FS wheels installed. 19x8.5" ET42. Weighs in at just 20.2 lbs!
Swapped the stock Pirelli 235/35-19 as they have plenty of life (only ~8k miles).

I went from 8p 140 sportback to 150 sline Nav with B&O to be honest i like curves on the 8p remap 50/50 and did loads of mods. had the Nav 4 months just remap 50/50 just a few mods fantastic colour amazing washed and waxed well built interior better than 8p Audi Drice select jury's still out on it Dynamic does what it says. Comfort can be too soft but you can create your own setting. MODS needle sweep, lap timer,cupholder light, footwell lights,warning lights, lights in door pockets,rear half Tinted, next is coming home mod, was thinking of ambient lighting ie door trim. Seen some others done but you can have to much lights on in car I'm keeping that subtle look

My wife's A3 1ltr Sport after an alloy wheel change which, to my eyes anyway, drastically improves the look of the car.

New addition to the family, getting out of it wont do me back much good but what the hell. Love the 8V and with all the new tech/quality causing issues with all sorts of new cars I wanted to get back into old school while there are still a few left.
TFSI, Manual, Daytona, B&O, F/R sensors, HH, heated seats, FB steering wheel and not much more.

Unless I missed something that was unexpected but looks good. Enjoy!
It was a bit unexpected. The Cupra went a wee while ago (extending the house again) and was actually going to get a van but saw this and thought "why not". SWMBO approved as well as she said the previous cars were just a bit shouty lol. Like I've said before the 8V is the sweet spot and to get my hands on a 69 plate saloon was a bonus IMHO.
**** me mate yer the Peter Stringfellow of this forum different car every time ye sign in lol
Go get some oem 19s for it =icing on the cake a fine example of the 8v....they catch my eye more so now than when l had my own such an elegant looking car compared to the ungainly looking 8Y
The tail lights on the pfl are so well designed just perfect in my opinion

PMSL, I am a true car sl## mate but couldn’t help myself. You know me, like to spend it 
I had a good stare at it the other night and I must admit I found myself grinning at it. Apart from the privacy glass missing I think the car looks the nuts and it lit up beautifully. Last of the 8V so hopefully plenty of R&D to make sure the last ones are tiptop.
Sorry for this mate but you should have kept yours, I’d forgotten how nice the saloon is.

That,s a looker mate. Saloon is the best looking of the A3,s . Perfect colour also....apart from 'wedding' white of course. I,be only been following @jassyo06 TTS thread recently so missed this one. Still think your mad getting rid of the Cupra tho
but bricks and mortar is a better investment over cars any day
Cheers buddy, the wife is considering a change so maybe steer her to the Copper badgeThat,s a looker mate. Saloon is the best looking of the A3,s .

Lovely, and being the run out model all the R&D it has gone through since 2013, should make it a belter. One of the reasons I went back into a A3 8V.
Stunning photo those rear tail lights on the 8V are beyond reproach in everyway and your quote of they "They hate us cuz they want to be us" was rather mute in the end
I just noticed today my rear lights are always on like DRL's, even in the 0 position, I agree the front and rear lights are ace IMO.
