Welcome to audi-sport.net. Look forward to seeing pics of the car when you collect.
I bet you can’t wait
Yeah, not had a build date though… Not sure I can wait longer than May, haha.
I know the feeling, this is the longest I’ve ever waited for a car.
Im a mk3 RS owner and the only reason I could see someone buying an RS edition (red) would be to keep it as a garage queen as undoubtedly they will hold value like the old RS500 has done (due to limited numbers) My RS would be left for dead by a RS3 I know that for sure, but at 19 im enjoying the power and the fun of what it is capable of on B roads. its going for fpm 375 shortly which will hopefully liven it up a little bit more for me.
Haha, slippery slope that!
No doubt they'll hold value, but I'm not sure if it'll be to the extent of the RS500 as there are far more Edition's being made worldwide. The RS is a truly ****** brilliant car though!
How olds is audinutta? I'm 21 and want that crown!
Sorry Callum, crown is still mine Got to be older than that. @AudiNutta has been terrorising this forum for years!
Imagine if we had the 6 or 7 there too! Mind you, it was ******* loud with the 2 of us. Total laugh that was!The FL sounds great it really does. I was behind a evil diesels one a few weeks back at a meet we went to and sounded great especially the dartford tunnel run.
The only time I didn’t hear it was when mine (PFL) was popping banging cracking on the overruns and downshifting
Tony we lit that tunnel up mate
its the quality and reliability....lots of focus rs owners reporting some minor stupid issue with usb ports not lining up in dash to engine failures, coolant leaks...decent car but quality is poor for this day and age. my mate cancelled his focus rs order and bought an m2
blimey, r8 next @ 22 maybe?I am currently 20
I’m 21 in May, so it’s right I got it at 20. Got into the S3 at 19, A3 at 18.
I’ve been on the forum 10 knocking on for 11 years now I believe.
I wish, haha.. spent out now. I’d have an RS6 over an R8 anyway....
the only things that put me off the rs3 is what the maintenance costs are really, like how much do you guys pay for a service? or a set of discs and pads? I think the RS has been the right decision for now as other than the 20mpg average, it isn't that expensive to run. I would defo like an RS3 but come the time I want to change car its probs more sensible to buy a house and have the money for cars after that
4 years paying off the RS3, get on the property ladder then and settle down. Idea is to keep the RS3, I’d rather have a 6-8 year old RS3 than a new ‘cheap’ car.
The only thing I aspire to in the Audi range now is a B8 RS4 which truly was the dream all along, but couldn’t be justified when compared against a brand new RS3 long term. I think once I’ve moved out and settled it will be a case of one new Audi, or I hope if I’m really lucky keep the RS3 (paid off) and pick up a V8 RS4 when they are £20k on the market.. that would be my lifetime perfect garage.
The new RS4 looks great, but I’ve got my doubts about the engine until I drive one. The RS6 is amazing, but what engine will that have next? I suspect that the RS range is going to downsize and get more subtle from now on, leaving the cars we currently own to be the prime and why I see myself in it for so long and purchasing the older generation rather than new. But who knows, in 5 years I could want a new age diesel A3 and be done with it
Must hide this post from the girlfriend! I’ve been told no more nice cars, haha. I aspire to live a simple life, if I can have a holiday a year, have a nice house and change the car every 3/4 years I don’t think I could ask for a lot more. So, that’s my life plan.. sorry to bore you, haha.
For now it’s the RS3, living at home and 4 holidays abroad planned this year.. woohoo!
