    RSQ3 RSQ3 Trade Time

    Honestly mate, I wouldn't hold out for it. Audi first try and say there isn't a problem, then admit it requires a further update which within the last year still hasn't been addressed and probably not around the corner either. I made an official complaint against MMI services as they couldn't...

    RSQ3 RSQ3 Trade Time

    I've gone for the saloon. I did consider the estate, but due to the packs and chip shortage I went for the one I could get most kit on. One day I will do an estate though, but it will be an Audi as prefer the look of them. Agree on the residuals! It's the only part of the purchase that concerns...

    RSQ3 RSQ3 Trade Time

    Very true, and I know that. They are a money pit I know and I wish I could stick to one but I can't. In all honesty, petrol was never a good idea for me and my travels. The A3 although diesel had to go as it was doing my head in, MMI crashing during meetings multiple times in the car was a...

    RSQ3 RSQ3 Trade Time

    Yea I loved it to be honest, cracking car, but I didn't want to lose money on it. I saw it start to drop so jumped on it immediately! Correct, the last BMW had a knocking noise they acknowledged then couldn't fix so said it was normal!? Then electrical issues like the MMI. In fact the A3 was...

    RSQ3 RSQ3 Trade Time

    Yea, get bored easily, basically tick a box and onto the next. This one I didn't actually lose anything no. Took it to webuyanycar and got all my money back so can't complain! First time I've been able to say that on a car (actually the A3 I had didn't lose either).

    RSQ3 RSQ3 Trade Time

    Well, it's been 3 weeks now so onto the next! Sold the RS5 last week so onto another..... this time I've decided to go BMW. As much as I love the Audi brand I thought after my last experience with BMW I would give it a go again. As always, wont be long and no doubt I will change again in the...

    RSQ3 RSQ3 Trade Time

    Loving the calipers!! They look like they are straight from Audi….. How much, roughly? No, I’m near to Reading although I work all over….. as far as Newcastle, as low as London and everything between lol. A lot of my time is around Manchester, Sheffield, B’ham though.

    RSQ3 RSQ3 Trade Time

    Funny isn’t it…… my first choice is ALWAYS white, yet I love the reds and greys also. For me it’s the contrast between black and white, obviously stands out more and when spending as much as we do I want it to stand out! Swap you frameless for red calipers lol……. Can’t see it when the doors...

    RSQ3 RSQ3 Trade Time

    Will upload more once I’ve cleaned it my way! The dealership clean is rather basic let’s say…. Who else expects food remains within the rear armrest when spending £70k!? :sadlike:

    Overinflated RS5 Prices or Not?

    I'm going to differ here.... I believe its a lot more! My A3 went up by £1k and on the forecourt now for £5k more! My RS5 I just purchased is £10k MORE than what it was pre covid! PRE Covid I purchased a 2019 RS5 new at £58k (pre reg) with delivery miles out the showroom. Now I've just...

    RSQ3 RSQ3 Trade Time

    Nope…. she doesn’t know! :icon thumright: The first time she will notice is Wednesday when it’s sat on the drive. It’s always better to explain after than before because by then it’s too late to change anything, that’s how I did the others! I understand the Ford thing, but personally really...

    RSQ3 RSQ3 Trade Time

    Nar, I make a decision and once decided just do it! That way I can’t change my mind lol. I don’t honestly want electric, there will be plenty of time for that, make the most of petrol for now! :wink:

    RSQ3 RSQ3 Trade Time

    Hey mate, No matter how many times I read this I can’t figure out if this is serious or not!? Just any Ford full stop (for me) is a massive no no…… I’d feel an old man in a chav racer car :notworking: Personally, after owning an SUV I wouldn’t go back (unless an updated RSQ3 lured me in!). I’m...

    RS5 B9 vs B9.5

    Its all personal preference and I get that. Me personally and my B9; I liked the sound, yea louder would be better but it was fine. Downshift manually and the pops and crackles were there! The Mrs hated it as other drivers would look when downshifting to a stop. When I changed to my RSQ3 that...

    Personally I think we are way off electric as a Country. Wife’s sister has a Tesla model 3 and refuses any long journeys in it after her experience a few weeks ago and nearly breaking down. Chargers not working all over, stopped at 4 stations and couldn’t charge, other than work journeys she now...
