Hi everyone

 

Not a full member yet as I have not got my hands on the RS3 until the weekend.

 

Currently have RS4 B8 which I've owned since new (May 2013) and currently has 12700 miles on it. But as much as I love the 4 I've always had my eye on the 3 and made the decision to part with the 4. 

 

Due to the orders being put on hold for the 3 I was more than happy to settle for a demo car in Nogaro blue, black optics, super sports seats and a load of other goodies which I will list once I get my hands on it.

 

My RS4 has 20x10 ADV.1 wheels on it which I so wanted to put on the 3, but no chance of that. So I will be asking for some advice on fitting after market wheels in 19" or even 20" but I would rather have better handling than looks....

 

That's it for now

Well its been a bit of a bumpy start with getting this car as it was actually a used car that the owner rejected.

 

I've had this out with my local dealership because these are the guys who purchased it from the other dealership. Been in contact with the original owner and even after telling me he has been hammering the car, has not put me off. But I did strike a good deal with my local dealership and the car is now mine.

 

Anyway, if you cant thrash one of these its not worth having. Yes its a risk but so is any car including brand new ones...

 

Will get some pics up soon.

Well it turns out not to be a demo but I am more than pleased with it. Getting a good deal would depend on the dealer I guess, some are good and some just.... well you know ....

 

Had to make the call as they have stopped production of the RS3. So whats left in stock (if any) and the demo/used cars are whats left.

Anyone who says they havent hammered their RS is telling porkies, you dont buy a performance car to tootle around around at 30mph and never plant your right foot when possible.

Aslong as it's serviced well you shouldnt have many issues, if you do then you have warranty to fall back on.

Enjoy bud!

My line of thinking and with only 1400 miles on it I will be having loads of breaking in fun...
