    RS3 PICTURES AND VIDEO ONLY

    Wow...pic looks amazing but scary/risky ;-) What stage 2 are you running? I had MTM stage 1 which was basically just the ECU remap and also had decatted and the results were awesome....circa 410bhp and around 550lb but to be honest I'm not sure on all the official quotes, but it defo...

    Private Market Value

    Traded mine for new 8v a few weeks past and managed a respectable £25.5k for similar. They have since stuck £6k on it and put in forecourt with their approval badge! Recon £26k private is about right though for a fair and decent sale.

    Gone....but not forgotten!

    Tomorrow sees a difficult farewell to my beloved 8P. She's been an absolutely beauty and by far easily been the best car owned to date. Her successor has a lot to live up to..,,, Best of luck to the new owner who picks her up from the Stealers! Gone...but not forgotten.

    Audi UK Customer Service response to 8P RS3 Low Speed Brake Squeal

    Unbelievable John..... I knew I was halucinating when I wrote letter after letter to good old Audi UK about my beloved squealing like an old bus! ....and I must have been dreaming when they offered me a full refund on the car a year later due to the squeal. ....and before I woke up I accepted...

    Serviced today....and new lease of life!

    Got my baby serviced today - her 3rd once since new - included advance engine flush and brake fluid change amongst the usual stuff. Also need a puncture repair and a reseal to the back exhaust centre, which was blowing slightly. Plus a diagnostic showed no faults which was great as since my...

    Dilemma - 2015 rs3 or rs4 ltd edition

    I was RS3 all the way but these photos have made me stop and think. Fuel economy would be a big factor. But I suppose it all depends on how attractive the discount is against the RS4....are they not about £60k new?

    New car, New RS3 (8V) or give my current baby a wee treat?!?!

    Absolutely love my RS3, but as we have been approaching our third anniversary, I have been considering trading her in for a younger model :-) I've looked and tested a few alternatives with similar offerings from merc, VW & bmw but to be honest I was still smitten with what I had so I have...

    Next rs3

    I see the S3 has now been launched in soft top mode - the first in as many years - starting at £38k, so using purely guesswork I would say an RS3 basic would need to be early to mid £40's to justify the market and take a lions share, with maybe a soft top RS3 @ £50k - thoughts?

    Pistonheads rolling road day

    Looks good to me and glancing at the torque on paper really does highlight turbo lag......as in WHAT TURBO LAG :-)

    Michelin Pilot Super Sports or Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 - Thoughts?

    I take part of your points, but equally if it was just pure raw power and acceleration, you could have used the RS3 to easily tick those two boxes. but if like me you need to tick a few more boxes but still desire 'crazy' horses in the region of another 50-100, to gain potentially up to 1 sec...

    Michelin Pilot Super Sports or Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 - Thoughts?

    Scorpion pipes arrived on Friday from AmD :sm4: Car booked in for today and dropped off at 9.30am for 2nd service; 4 x MPSS, all on 235's; and the icing on the cake was to have the decat pipes fitted. Phone call at 4pm, she is all ready. Collection at 5pm followed by quick inspection and...

    Likewise mate, but unless its priced reasonably at no more than £45k with a decent spec, I may just have to hold onto my baby for a year or two longer ;-)

    Audi RS experience @ Silverstone

    When i was enquiring about a TTRS+ purchase some months ago - before my 2nd RS3 purchase, my local dealer told me launch mode was only for track use and was not for every day road use - I then asked him what the difference was to Audi (or him, as he also told me he had been on a recent course in...

    RS3 service any recommends for a good dealer ?

    Lomond Audi quoted £397 for 2nd service ������ Local independent Audi Specialist quoted £300 and managed to haggle a few quid off and much better service so no brainer. They will also fit bypass pipes so I can't wait. They were also very competitive on the tyre front quoting £666...
