Hey Riz, it's been a while - we've missed your trainers

I actually recovered my 'notional' deposit for an RS3 last weekend - given up, I even had trouble getting information from my dealer about the new S3!

Nige.

New S3 is out in November 2006.
Between 260-272bhp
2.0 FSi Turbo
Quattro
3 door
18" `S` alloys

Usual S refinements like seats, bose etc

Yes its been ages, I missed the car community alot..... never got a chance to enjoy my S3 or R32 as I only kept them short term.... this ones a long termer!

Cant wait.....

Riz

RS3 is not on the radar at the moment,but has not been totally ruled out -- but would be at least 2008 before we saw it IF they decide to make it - original rumours were of 3.2 TSi engine( turbo and supercharger) but its gone VERY quite on that!!

Our Dealer Principal hsa just come back from a jaunt with Audi where they were shown the S3 -- but NOT told what engine was in it!!! -- not even wether 4cyl or 6cyl

It will also be available in Sportback form at a later date

Riz you loon

Riz mate, great to see you posting and even better to hear you're having an RS4.

Congratulations I am rather jealous.

They are a "ouch" price at £355.00

I`ve tried to source them via 3rd parties but with no luck, apparently most of the Audi exclusive quattro GmbH stuff is sold via main dealers only or direct from Germany.

I think they finish the car off nicely....
