    I've been told the same by Audi staff. We'll see.... ;-)

    Not convinced that is true. I've seen videos of the car with sports exhaust and it didn't have black tips. I think what you say may be true of other RS models. The penny-pinchers at the lower end of the model range won't fork out for a bit of extra paint!

    Ditto. The chin strap looks like it fell off an AMG A45 and got stuck in the intake.

    Anyone seen a picture of a Sepang RS3 with pimped out courtesy glass and standard trim, i.e. no black or (yuk) alu pack?

    Front air intake looks like this mouth.. The Mercedes Grimmace AMG.

    RS3 vs Golf R400?

    Better without the aero pack. Still can't see the Chairman getting out of one though...

    RS3 vs Golf R400?

    Looks like a 10 year old boy designed it. Do you really want to drive something that looks like it might 'transform' into a robot? Not a car for grown-ups to be seen in. Lesser A series can look good but this looks like a kids toy.

    RS3 vs Golf R400?

    I quite like the front bumper/spoiler and side sills though. The way the bumper rises to meet the badge and the black plastic looks like it's unpainted like an All-road so it'll not show scratches and chips so much. Much better than the retarded front of the Mk2 RS3 with it's chin strap and...

    Well Audi had the fastest hatch for a very short while....

    What I want to know veeeight, is how pretty, and can you prove it?

    Well Audi had the fastest hatch for a very short while....

    Anyway I think Audi do still have the fastest hatch. RS7!!

    True, but you have to give AMG some credit for getting huge power without reliability or drivability issues. I did once drive an EVO with 360 bhp and the lag was ridiculous and it sounded like a big hoover. Being Japanese the reliability was ok but you had to oil change the damn thing every...

    Tough Choice

    Yeah, how hard can it be to just mount them a bit lower? Especially as you say they've got the bits in another car. I sat in a TTS last week and almost fitted...can't remember what seats it had though. Nice car inside...just no room for a dog and lanky son.

    Tough Choice

    Yeah I didn't believe him either. That's why I made them bring me four different cars our for me to sit in. My head touched the roof in the cars with standard seats and didn't with the SS seats. Both still too high though, you're right.

    Well Audi had the fastest hatch for a very short while....

    Yep it's certainly that. Very impressive for only 2 litres. Hell it would be impressive for 3 litres! It doesn't seem long ago that 276 bhp from 2 litres was impressive - remember the EVO vs Subaru battles? An extra 100 bhp or so is quite incredible, and from a car trhat promises decent...

    It certainly is, and they claim to have a 50:50 weight distribution which is an even better solution. Shame about the engine and the fact the cabin is designed for dwarves.
