It is very personal... I particularly dislike Panther Black... not a huge fan of Ara Blue ... as mentioned we all have different views and it only takes one to make a sale. WBAC value (CAP) £34k is low and low £40’s achievable I’m sure.
sold my rs3 Thursday after only 4 days
and was not for 40k Doc said it was only worth
got £49.900 so happy with that and had my test drive in bmw m2 comp today" whot a car is all I can say

Staggered you got basically £50k for it but fair play to you and great news that residual values are holding up so well.sold my rs3 Thursday after only 4 days

Dealer" TH Boler
sold my last 3 cars know with no problems
Incredible valuations! WLTP great for current owners.Astonishing price you got there and only after 2 days!
I've just had mine valued for the same, similar spec/low miles.
I assume you sold the car on a 'sale or return' basis? Can you advice on any safeguards to undertake when selling such a way?
Don’t you reckon FL prices are over inflated at the moment though, if order books re-open isn’t it likely that prices will drop? They’re not dropping below £40k at the moment thoughIncredible valuations! WLTP great for current owners.
Absolutely. No way should a year old RS3 be worth £50k on trade in to a dealer, no matter how well specced or low mileage it is!Don’t you reckon FL prices are over inflated at the moment though, if order books re-open isn’t it likely that prices will drop? They’re not dropping below £40k at the moment though
Be interesting to see what they advertise it for
Nad " you are talking **** about all this Horror storie lark! and you said you have already spoke to TH BOLER" these are no small company and sell much more exotic cars over 200k than a plane audi rs3 ! Sold a new Mercedes c63 amg coupe and new bmw m4 comp before the audi rs3 with no probs! So all this Risk @@@ is just forum talk!
Get your car upto them if you wont to sell" or give it to a main audi dealer for 37k " but least you will sleep better right lol
I would never ever suggest BMW or MB are next tier up.What car are you going to replace the RS3 with Nad?
Also Jonny, how was the C63 and M4 compared to the RS3? They're both the next tier up so surprised you went to the RS3 and now M2 comp.
you say that because your a Audi owner lol have you had a new c63 or m4 comp?I would never ever suggest BMW or MB are next tier up.
He means model class wise. The A3/RS3 competes against the Merc A class and BMW 1/2 series.I would never ever suggest BMW or MB are next tier up.
I would say class wise and quality wise! And yes I did try a C63 before ordering RS4. Lovely V8 but that was all, decidedly tacky and low rent. BMW not for me, just feels like a downmarket VW. It’s the whole package for me. Yes I do own and have owned several Audis but always consider the options and buy based on a number of objective factors..He means model class wise.

The C Class and 3/4 series compete against the A4.

I had a 2016 RS3 for 2 years, absolutely loved it but also had a boring B9 Quattro tdi avant as a DD. Sold both and bought an RS4 as mileages reduced. Absolutely love it and without doubt more fun than the RS3. However a month after buying the RS4 I landed a contract with regular 250 mile a day trips and didn’t want lots of miles on RS4, so I bought a new FL S3 - great car, 35mpg motorway and very competent. The RS4 is not as much of a hooligan as the RS3 or even the S3 but my goodness what a lovely beast and less than £300 a year to insure!!Contemplating an RS4. I know most of you have bonded well with your RS3’s and are loving every minute, but sadly I’m just not feeling it with mine.
you say your RS4 is absolutely more fun than your rs3 was buddy! Then say its not so much a hooligan than the rs3 or even facelift s3 you have know" I thought a fun car was ment to feel like a hooligan? so that makes the rs3 a more fun car than the rs4 right? and if talking speeds" don't think the rs4 estate would be much quicker if any than the rs3 "I had a 2016 RS3 for 2 years, absolutely loved it but also had a boring B9 Quattro tdi avant as a DD.

infernox I did look at the ttrs and even had test drive before I did the rs3" Just not sure about the rear of the car and feminine look! Also the extra cost from rs3! I wont a more driver focussed car and going for a manual box for the 1st time in 9 years and my mk2 focus rs Test drove a honda civic type r and was really surprised just how fast and light it was" lots of grip also for FWD Just little boy racer for me I think"
drove a manual bmw m2 comp last week and even though the manual box was not as good as the civic and still little notchy! It was fast and power delivery was better than it was in my m4 comp and the traction light never flickered once! sounded ok also
I'm obviously biased but I think the TTRS looks incredible. The amount of stares and looks it gets is unbelievable...sometimes I wonder if even an R8 would get so much attention...it certainly seems as rare a car.Yeah there's something a bit odd about the TTRS looks to me too, I think the roofline needs to be less curved. I was thinking what car I'd get after the RS3 and I'd want to try a V8 car with a manual before everything goes electric but they aren't many around. I know there's the ford mustang but in ways that's a downgrade to the RS3. Maybe I've been spoiled from having Audi interiors for the last 6-7 years. Most of the V8 cars I like are in the 60-80k range and only 2 doors. Maybe the next C63 Saloon if it comes with 4WD could do. Anyway I shouldn't be thinking too far ahead, not looking to change for a while.
The RS4 is far quicker from A to B .. very planted to the road and effortlessly eats the miles PLUS you can feel like a hooligan when you want to. Best of both worlds.you say your RS4 is absolutely more fun than your rs3 was buddy!

As for V8's, I think Mercedes have really got that market well covered and you struggle to beat them! A mate has a Mustang V8 and it's very quiet and not that fast.
