Post Pics Of Your A3/S3 8v In Here

I took a picture of your car in the morning before it had been prepped I think! I was there trying to sort my A3 out - I took it from the dealer after a clutch change (16k miles!!) I drove halfway to work and it stopped working. Came back to the Bexley! Cutting a long story short my Sepang blue S3 comes in two weeks!!!! Cannot wait!!!!! :)
 
Another one of mine after a wash and dry yesterday ..........

Wheels really are something different, proper hyper silver. They 19" as they look massive
They are 19s but appear bigger as the spokes go right out to edge of rim, they're not actually hyper silver, the face is polished then coated in a clear satin powder coat so they are very different.

Hi rmappita. Thanks!

Yes in Australia we have two options when we buy a "Performance Pack" from Audi.

* Choice of 19" 5-V-spoke design or 5-twin-spoke 'star design'
* Sports Seats
* Audi Magnetic Ride
* B & O Sound System
* Black Inlays
* Red Calipers
* LED headlights

Hi Matt Damon, thank you for the answer ! Here in Brazil the Audi is very primitive when we talk about car optionals.. When we bought the A3, even if we pay for the accessory, they do not offer the S-Line package, Bang & Olufsen sound, adaptive cruise control, full LED headlight, keyless start, the motor line are only 1.4 and 1.8 TFSI. The Sportback does not have leather seats. Anyway, Audi in Brazil is frustrating. An Audi A3 1.8 without GPS and without leather seats costs $ 53,000 down here, and the Audi S3 without full LED headlight and keyless start costs $84.000 :mad new::mad new::mad new::audibash:
 
Here's mine in Sydney, Sepang Blue with BSP, Panoramic Roof, Performance Pack, Assistance Pack. Love it!

Do they keep people's new build cars in the showroom for other people to view it and sit in there??
In Australia, from what I've seen, they put the car on the main showroom floor, but they are locked with a sign saying it's "Sold" or "Spoken For", but it doesn't stop people touching it and trying to get into it.
 
@lovei27 that looks the nuts mate, I like the 4 rings on the back door...black is a tw*t to keep clean but boy does it look good.

Nice white saloon! Great that we have owners from as far as Taiwan! Are you from Taiwan then?
 
Picked up yesterday and specifically asked the dealer not to clean it:

So 10 hours later:

Auto Finesse Citrus Power soak
Meguiars Degreaser around all wheel arches
DoDo Juice Iron Fallout Remover (huge amount of iron deposits all over the car)
Demineralised Water Wash
Poorboys PH Neutral Snow Foam Soak
Demineralised Water Wash
Two bucket method wash with AutoGlym Shampoo

Machine polished with Blackfire Gloss Enhancing Polish

Then for the full Blackfire over Wet Ice effect - Blackfire All Finish Paint Protection followed by 2 coats of Midnight Sun Paste Wax

Wheels were cleaned with Blackfire Quick Detailer (they will come off next week for full High Temp Wax treatment)
2 coats of Gtechniq T1

Windows were done with AG Fast Glass

Looks awesome. sepang right?I think I saw an rs5 in that at the dealer waiting to pick up my car. Looked beautiful. Good choice
 
Yeah it's Sepang, pictures don't do it justice, it's stunning really am pleased with it, the amount of comments / glances my baby gets is incredible

Can't help but feel Nimbus has shown me up on the picture front! Looks nice and clean mate

@Nimbus265, I've ordered the same wheels on mine, not seen them in the flesh so wasn't sure if I had done the right thing! But after seeing your picture I think I have :)

Nice job btw ;)

Love these wheels. I want a set


I have to say, I cannot fault the finish on the wheels. The lacquer seems really comprehensive, the colour of the wheels on the Sepang Blue car (with Red calipers), just looks the dogs danglie bits!!
