I know this is a forum car, I did my research before I bought it and I kept very quiet about the car I'd got until I was happy with the way it looked and turned out.

 

Here it is, Prince Harry's old RS3, as good as me and my mate Matt could get it. It really was terrible when I picked the car up and took about 45/50 hours of correction to get it right.

 

This really has been a well maintained car otherwise. Really pleased with my purchase, it's a whole different world to my old MK2 Focus RS.

Your not wrong Roy, I purchased the car from GC Motors in Harrogate. They had done some very dubious sanding work (as you can see from the marks on the left hand rear) and just glazed it up to the max. 

 

Just a pity that nobody knows how to take care of such beautiful paint, black Audi paint is magical!

What a stunning transformation car looks superb black was the only other colour I would have had when ordering mine before I plumped for Daytona grey

I was looking at the grey but i saw the two side by side and the black just had he edge for me. Very understated in looks!

It all depends on what you want to do. I have been detailing for years, but my friend Matt is a big fan of fast Audi's as he said so it had to be done with him. anything less than perfect is not acceptable haha.
