Hi guys. I am looking to sell my rs3 which has been tastefully modified and is fully reversible in terms of the modifications carried for those preferring an oem car.

It is a 67 plate nardo sportback with black pack (including black rs3 badges all around and carbon fibre audi badges, which complement the grey in my opinion.), pan roof and grey accents interior w/ grey stitched SS seats as factory options among others.

It has always been serviced and maintained as well as tuned at mrc tuning and I can honestly say it has never given me any issues what so ever. It has roughly 37.5k on the clock with a folder full of paperwork/receipts.

The power modifications are as follows:
Eventuri cold air intake
Milltek catless downpipe
Milltek non resonated catback
Wagner EVO 3 intercooler
Forge inlet turbo elbow pipe
NGK race plugs
AEM water methanol injection kit
I have all the stock parts for the above in storage.


STAGE 2 MRC ECU TUNE (and gearbox tune) W/ SWITCHABLE MAPS for:
-stock: 412 bhp
-stage 2 + octane booster (nf 6 ron): 519 bhp
-stage 2 + octane booster + water meth:539 bhp
-stage 2 + water meth + race fuel 110 ton (sunoco 260 or vp 109): 557 Bhp 750nm

Chassis mods:
034 motorsport billet motor/transmission mounts
034 subframe collar bolt locking kit
034 subframe bushing kit (front+rear)
034 spherical dogbone mount w/ upper and lower inserts to minimise play
034 front sway bar
034 rear sway bar
MSS sport spring kit lowered by 20mm
Again ALL stock parts in storage


Weight reduction only undertaken by removing rear seats/boot equipment and replacement of oem parts with lighter parts. It is as follows:

2019 sparco grid q seats x2 @ 6.5 kg each (vs 60kg SS oem seat x2)

Super b lithium ion battery w/ mrc custom bracket @ 3-4 kg vs oem 20+ kg

Awesome gti rear wiper delete

Parcel shelf/boot lining/sub woofer/rear seats/equipment removed, no trim removed however. (Approx 25 kg)
SS oem seats/battery/aforementioned oem parts all in storage and can be put back to oem.

Other miscellaneous mods:
Slightly darker privacy tints around the rear/ mild tints on front
Black roof wrap on remaining part of roof not occupied by pan roof.
Ferrodo ds2500 brake pads all round w/ braided brake lines all round
75% tread on Michelin ps4s all round
Will be replacing pads/discs and major service before sale.
Has 0 social media exposure lol.
HPI clear

0 to 60 on drag best time 3.06 valid
10.9 1/4 mile at 130 mph valid
60 to 130 roughly in the 7s

Thinking of selling close to next month due to new b5 s4 tte 780 project plus business acquistion
Cars I've been on par or have beaten w/the full setup
- Mercedes e63s 2017+ stock launch/roll beaten
- BMW m3/m4s stage 2 all day launch/roll beaten
- Lamborghini huracan performante launch/roll on par won some minimally or neck on neck
- Porsche 911s stock
- audi r8 v10 plus launch and roll beaten
Plus many more. Only car I can remember being embarrassed by was 2 800 + Bhp r35 gtr

Definitely the most reliable modified car I've owned but I've never gone cheap on any part. Still get roughly mid 20s urban mpg around town and mid to high 20s on motorways.

Although there are many faster rs3s setups out there it has to be up there near the top for stage 2s in the uk and is a brilliant platform for bigger power considering chassis setup and cooling.

If seats are put back in it can really be a "best of both worlds" car and is a real wolf in sheeps clothing.

Considering all mods and maintainence plus market value I would consider serious offers approx 46k

Thanks for reading
Any questions feel free to ask in case I have missed details out.
