Ditto, I had an Evo 6 for 6 months inbetween having the 210 S3 and the 225 S3. An animal of a car but high costs!! Service every 4500, new tyres in the same amount maybe slightly more, and brakes every 7K!! Plus a midget of a fuel tank that swallowed Super every time and doing between 90 and 120miles before another fillup got a bit tiresome.
Her she is in all her glory.
But I have to say if I had the cash I would seriously consider it again, damn that car was awesome /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile_smoking.gif
After the Evo I tested all sorts of car (Xtype 3.0, Type R, Elise, STI, 147, Skoda RS etc) apart from the R32/RS as it wasn't out then, I decided on another S3. Why? Well for everything, build, quality, ergonomics, set-up, functions, toys, looks etc. Servicing ain't too bad either compared to other car makers. And more importantly they hold their value very well.
