Audi S3 to VW Golf R - Am I a joke to you?

Exactly ... an A3 vorsprung with the groovy alloys looks more aggressive & purposeful than the S3 in that video. It looks like an A3 sport not even s line.
Audi’s S Model styling has always been subtle but that is far far too subtle, plus it sounds like a hoover. Taking the term sleeper to a whole new level :tearsofjoy:

My Forthcoming car has the 320-ps EA888 engine but according to the Audi configurator it still only 400 NM and not 420 NM of torque like the GR8 bit strange me thinks...Besides a drive like a Parish Priest....torque wont matter lol

What were you saying about white :tearsofjoy:

& wtf is going on with the shiny bits on the front grill ? :blink:



Its the Clam shell like bonnet it gives the impression that the car looks narrower than it is....like someone said Black paint hides the marmite design tweaks

You seen the price of the Hybrid version as in the one in the photo ^^^ its like £7000 more expensive than the equivalent petrol version S-Line to S-Line

It will be the same gen4 ea888 engine as in the Tiguan R with 320bhp which has 420nm. My guess is their info on the site isn't accurate?

It’s taking the ****, hybrid is heavier and in the real world worse on fuel, like the Prius tat.
I remember a work colleague raving about the Prius and then he got shot of it in 8 months, reason was it was averaging 32mpg.

And..... time to get back on topic....
Longevity of any Thread on a forum is all down to members knowledge and opinions but one can only post so much on a specific car/ topic hence most members chit chat between each other ...until we learn more...its probably why this 8v/8y section is still in existence as you well know
