So, the time has come and my sad face is very much on.
My Audi S3 is coming up to 3 years old and I’m now after a new car. Change in circumstances too, means I’m doing a fair few more miles that I was when I first bought this car so I doubt my change will be as exciting, but we’ll see.
From pre purchase, the Audi S3 has put a smile on my face. It sticks to the road like its on rails. Through my time with the car in the recent poor weather, that itself has been a joy as I see BMW and Merc drivers struggling to move whilst I happily cruise past with Quattro efficiency.
I’ll miss the duels with the Merc C63 AMG ‘PAUL D’ as will I miss you Mr XJR … your faces were great 😉
In any weather conditions, This. Car. Shifts. Its also a delight to cruise down the motorway and its size means its great for diving into town and not having the issues of parking a Chelsea Tractor.
And this is the info on it.
33k Miles
Ibis White (the best colour)
with optional extras of:
Sat Nav
Flat Bottom Multifunction Steering Wheel (FBMFSW)
iPod Connection in glovebox with charging and all ipod adapter shutes
Full BT phone integration *so yes, you have the cool shark fin on the roof*
Rear Parking Sensors
Tire Pressure Sensor
Armrest
ADDITIONAL PACKS include:
– Rain & Light Sensor Pack
– Mirrors auto dimming, folding & light sensitive
– Luggage Pack
I have been the sole owner of this car and since March 2008 it has been cleaned EVERY SINGLE weekend, with dual bucket methods and foam lance. Yes I have been that anal about the car. Actually, that statement isn’t entirely true. When it was -14 that weekend I didn’t do it as the water wouldn’t come out the tap.
Anyway, all paperwork is with the car, 2 keys, and service book shows its just had a full service in January 2011. Michelin RE050 Potenza Tyres have over 5mm on all corners and filled with nitrogen (its beneficial apparently)
There are a couple of stone chips, 1 just above the windscreen and 1 on the front skirt. It also has LED bulbs internally, which I can of course remove if you want a softer light. LED festoons are also in place above the reg plate. These look great on the Ibis paintwork. Its on 12mm spacers too in the pics, but they’ll be coming off.
Heres whats on offer:
(its the white one) 😉
So, optional extras, plus the standard spec of the S3 make for an awesome car!
I have a rolling road graph which shows the car doing somewhat considerably better than the stock figures, 294BHP/291LBFT, though this car is and always has been totally as it was coming out the factory. I have all the paperwork for it, its on new tyres and its fully Audi Serviced (looked after by Gilders Sheffield) and in for its first MOT so will have a year of that too.
Hoepfully, who ever buys this car will join up to the forum and benefit from all the fun and experience our users have there too.
Anyway, sale price £20,000
and no canvassers thanks.

which, if I don’t say so myself, is a quality forum full of the kind of car banter you’d expect, tuning knowledge you want to read, and offers you don’t get elsewhere. If you have that sort of inclination… playing with your VAG car, then head on over and say hi.
It's a carry out...
