I know this has been said a few times with various people thinking of selling and asking for advice, i'm unfortunately looking to do the same.
I have a 51 plate S3 I have owned it for about 2 and a half years having bought it off a friend, I love the car but seeing a 61 plate car the other day made me realise the car isn't getting any younger and the miles aren't coming down, I think I have come to that cross road: Do I continue to mod and keep the car till it dies (in years to come), or do I change for something newer?
As I love the car, It's mechanically sound (helps having a dad in the motor trade) it pulls very well and its a real shame to sell it looking at the kind of money the S3s are going for now...
But this is the decision I need some help with ...
If i go for a newer car i am looking at getting a good loan or finance on a car for under 15k ideally.
I am open to ideas, but ideally it needs to be newer than the S3, looking for something quick and fun; thought about newer shape S3's, Lotus Elise, possibly Porches if Cayman is cheap enough, I also have been offered a friends 55 Plate Quattro Sport TT with 30k miles for 9k..
So what do you guys thinks, is there a good replacement for the S3 for that kind of money, if so what?
Or is it better to keep the car and do any work thats needed and continue with the modding process?
Advice is muchly appreciated
