Order placed, but I'll have to wait until end Jan/Feb for my new baby to arrive  :angry:  

 

In the meantime, I want to spec some toys to buy my new arrival. The RS3 (Sportback) is already pretty awesome, but any advice on a few goodies would be gratefully received.

 

I’m thinking of some wheel spacers but not sure what thicknesses would be flush F&B

Then maybe some 1” (or so) lower springs

Maybe an ECU tune once she’s run in?

 

It’s gona be a long 3 months!

 

Thanks in advance.

Hello Fad 

and welcome to the forum 

 

There have not been many of the face lift cars on here as yet so the mods to have or do are not yet on here T800 is the man with the most 

know how and also has just bought a facelift so he might be able to help

 

What spec and colour did you get ,

 

Hopefully not Nardo  :angry:

Hi Roy, thanks for the note.

I almost went for Nardo, but settled on white with:
Sport pack
Comfort & sound pack
RS design pack
Pano roof
Black style and privacy glass
Basic Pre-sense (for £200 seemed like a good idea)
19” wheels (not sure I like the Audi wheels but hope they grow on me)

Probably just like T800’s! lol, now to make it unique!!

Hardly on here much now Roy........

 

I actually regret the purchase now.........Never had any issues with the Golf R 

 

 

3rd RS3 and nothing has changed it seems.

That's a shame to hear!

 

I may have missed a forum post about it, but what makes you regret your purchase?
