RS3 8Y Picture Gallery Thread

[kayemill]

Ive just taken delivery of my carbon black RS3. Couldn’t help but notice it has lane assist. I could have sworn this was a vorsprung feature? I spec’d C+S but i also have a FBSW. I thought with that feature you had to have the bus drivers wheel???

Out and about yesterday and had to stop and admire the shine when walking back to my baby yesterday. These really are great looking cars if you are lucky enough to get your hands on one.

Very nice

Chav car

The new 8y definitely looks much better than the 8v and the driving dynamics are vastly improved, that's my first impressions.
However, interior materials are, as others have stated, a bit poor and cheap even. Also exhaust is definitely quieter
But overall I think its a step up for the RS3.

Still a rare car, I barely see any at all when out and about.

Same here, I saw a Grey one like the above a few weeks ago and that's it.

Interesting to see someone trying to do something different with the 8y alloys, but I don't think that look works.
Looks diamond cut as well.

I thought they looked standard but diamond cut as well, it makes the whole wheel look heavy, the spokes look too thick.

I would think that trying to diamond cut the std wheels would have this effect as you would need to remove enough material to get the spoke to a sharp 90 degree edge

At least someone tried it before me !!
Scratch that idea off.

I think they look great.

While it’s clean before my trip to Poole. Got to love beadage!

Finally some sunshine to get some nice photos.

My car was registered with my private plate which means despite being a 23 plate I did not get a chance to actually use the 23 plate!

I was told if I remove my private plate then a 23 plate would be assigned by DVLA but that costs me £80 and I’m not going to do that…

When you sell and remove the private plate it will then get a 23 allocation.

The thing is I want to have a 23 plate while it’s new… if they had registered it with that I’d have driven it for a bit then put my private plate on.

That was in the showroom in Huddersfield when I picked up my new Sportback… I wasn’t keen on the alloys tbh. My last RS3 was mythos black so I was happy for a change

That's typical of most privy plate owners these days, want to look new with a 23 plate and then stick some shxx on to hide the year so the general pubic plebs know no better. They're everywhere these days especially on anything related Range Rovers (waxxxxs)!

I have a few private reg's and I like that it hides the year from new. Most of the scrotes will just assume it is an old car and not new.

My private plate is a '69 plate with the full seven digits so it looks like an old car immediately because I didn't really care about having the '72 plate on it.

After a weekend of polishing and ceramic coating.
Looks a bit purple in dull Weather, doesn’t come across on camera that well.

Looks outstanding chap, I'd happily have that parked in my driveway, and it's a saloon too which does look so much better, awesome.

@HulkRS3 do you have a screen tint? That looks very blue in the camera

It's a chameleon tint yes. It's exagerated in the photo due to the lens having a polarising filter over it. You can see it in person, but compare it to this photo with no polariser.

 

[Terminator x]

Saw a fair few today in Beulieu, will post them up once I have removed the reg's. Two in TR parked next to each other, one a SB the other a saloon!

Looks amazing.

Strange effect with the DRL's. Lens Flare?

Love the focal effect in that pic. Makes them look like toys.
