Spotters Thread For 8V Chassis

Across my travels through South of France seems Audis are quite popular. Seen a couple of nice RS3's around Nice and Monaco areas but were too quick to snap :sunglasses:and some nice look a likes and well kept for A3's and hire cars at our current location.

Look a likey example...

Saw a Sepang Blue S3 Cab in the Spanish battery car park in Tynemouth yesterday, first time I have seen an S3 Cab and it looked fantastic.

Saw a Red S3 (3 door) behind me on the way into the Team Valley this morning.
 
I saw thechallinor today in his exclusive (porsche viper?) green S3 hatch, filling up at Tesco. Would've said hello but didn't want to appear like a stalker :). Not sure he posts here any more.

Green (viper green?) S3 saloon in Kirkby Lonsdale, I was the young painter staring from up a ladder
 
Not spotted in person, but on Instagram instead.

Someone here isn't it? (the owner, not the Shell worker haha :D) Recognised the plate.

Since it is on Instagram I don't think they'd mind, but didn't post the full reg or insta username just in case

Following, then alongside, a black S3 saloon, on a personal plate, M5 northbound at J15 lunchtime today.

Seen two at Northland end of Haywards Heath, am sure it'll make sense to them but as they were parked at respective houses didn't want to be too descriptive. One a Misano Saloon S3 and the other a Sepang Sportback, with roof rails otherwise could've been the twin of mine
