My S3 arrived at the dealers!

Not long now Warren

What time you collecting? I think my bro has set his alarm for 11.55 tonight

It's too long mate!!! 9am tomorrow is D-Day and whilst I pick my S3 up my boss will be picking up a Kawasaki Z750.

Neither of us will be in work on time. If I had the car at midnight I'd be out all night.18 hours and counting!

[ZeroK66]

non dealer fit:
Removable sat nav (TBC)
RS4 19" alloys (Current version)
Haldex uprated 4wd controller
MTM remap (Stage 1)

Thats about it. Wanted the fold around seats and sat nav plus but it just made the car too expensive.

Like it... straight in there!

[coxw]

The 19's have just gone off the list as aftermarket ones are too heavy. If I can land some OE ones they may be back in the menu. Can't wait to get down to QST on Friday and have a proper drive in the car as I've not had a decent solo run yet.

Just got back from the dealers:











Fairly happy with it to be honest, feels better than I remember.

Off to MTM tomorrow and then I'll provide a bit more feedback as I've only driven it for a few miles.

Roll on 5:30pm

Looks awesome, love the colour

"Fairly happy" sounds like you are a little disappointed, I'd be over the moon after spending £30k odd!

Are you at work till 5.30?

How many miles will it have done when it is chipped by MTM? How does that affect the warranty?

Looks really nice from the front in those pics - can't we just roll out those arches just a touch

Whilst you're rolling the arches can you fit quad exhausts as well please, 2 from each side!

I'm a hard man to please!! I'm still smarting badly from the loss of my Leon Cupra R. I loved that car and would have kept it as a track day car if money was no object. I was quicker than the S3 is currently, but that should all change tomorrow.

The MTM map is removable if I wade into any warranty issues, but it should have 200 miles on it by the time I get to QST. MTM does offer a 2yr warranty on its work, but what that actually means for me I'm yet to find out.

cheers

I think it'll grow on you fast when the engine is run in and your running approx. 310bhp

Dave

[clubsport]

Congratulations, your car looks amazing!!!!

I am really coming round to these and will probably replace my B4 S4 with one....look forward to hearing your running reports on the car.

[fredfunk1975]

Very nice, i like the dolphin grey! You will have to let us know what the before and after is once you have been to qst!

[MarkB]

Are they going to Rolling Raod it during the Remap? Very low miles to push a car hard like that!

Thats what I thought, but doubt Warren will have it look enough for it to cause issues for him

Dave

[MarkB]

look enough

Did you mean long enough?
