'Unusual' S3 trim

Post by david7m » Thu Nov 06, 2008 10:44 am

Check out the sofa like material trim on this S3 - surely it can't be real!

Search the Autotrader website - National, Audi S3, £7k - £8k, then select less than 40k miles on advanced filters. Its silver at Western Motors.

Anyone seen anything like it before?

It was just leather or alcantara, anything else would have been a custom option and cost extra.

Might well be an import. Im sure the only UK dealer options were alcantara or leather, or thats what I remember when I bought my S3 in 2003.
