Thanks for that Paddy, I'm just a bit wary of the potential expensive bills that sometimes come with some performance cars.. I've had my Mk5 gti for 3+ years and it's been ultra reliable, luckily its been very kind to my wallet too, apart from general service items obviously and, as often is the...

Ok still wanting to get an S3 8P but after doing a bit more research, certain things are scaring me just a little bit mainly the Haldex and differentials, more so the cost of replacing them if they fail. So the obvious next question is how reliable are they and being as I'm not very...

Haha thats a lot of money for a weekend toy but if it's your baby then you will obviously pay it.. I'm 59 so not usually an issue with insurance lol, plus its going to be my daily car but i don't do a lot of miles to be honest. I've had my Gti 3+ years and done @ 16k..

That's a nice motor Bryant how does a "young pup" afford to insure let alone run an S3 8P not that im jealous lol..

Hahaha not a spring chicken but glad to be potentially joining the S3 8P team, watch this space!! Got a 2012 3dr to look into in the new year with relativley low miles 54k and fsh..Unfortunately no idea on whether its been mapped or anything, how would i find out except through getting it...

Ok Paddy thanks for that, 300bhp is more than enough for me to be honest its just nice to have that power at your disposal if needed , and as i said I'm not going to be thrashing it, I've gone beyond that now lol, also i have a Motorbike for a bit of fun occasionally..

Haha thanks Paddy that makes me feel better knowing were not all just boy racers. I Just fancy a S3 as a step up the ladder from the Gti and i've had a couple of cars with 4-wheel drive before and fancy another one. What sort of gains did you get from a map from the standard power please?

Hi guys thanks for all your input it's much appreciated, Prt57 thanks for your in depth thoughts and going by your assessment of the S3 I'd basically be spending @10k for pretty similar to what I already have apart from the quattro system and it being "a bit more tunable" .. I'm not a boy racer...

Hi guys n girls, Basically I'm thinking of returning to Audi ownership after about 7 years being in a volkswagen, my current vehicle is a 2006 Golf gti stage 1, but wanting to change to something newer. I'm unsure as to what models to go for but have my eye on a 2012 S3 manual which i believe is...

Hi guys possibly returning to a 2013 A4 Avant tdi 140..after 3 years of driving a Mk5 golf gti and was wondering what the 140 Bhp tdi is like for power... as I'm really torn as to whether i can adapt to the power drop. Currently running @230bhp.. Any advice greatfully taken on board .. Steve..
