I've lost track of the release date, but thought it was going to be early November, ie now! Also, someone at my brothers company thinks he has seen one (I suspect S Line A3).

Do you think they'll contact you, and not the other way around? I've left my name and address for releases before and they never got back to me :(

My dealer was supposed to have one in by today, but he called to say they've all been delayed until next week. Waiting for a call to pop down for a test drive.

Someone off the Golf IV forum test drove one http://uk-mkivs.net/forums/thread/729226.aspx .

Smart motor - tho wheels a bit bland.

The side view at a glance looked like a Seat Leon!

Looks sweet though! Wonder if MK or Bedford will get one shortly.....

If new £30k, you'll lose the VAT straight away (£5,250), plus a premium for new model, I reckon about £26k ;)

I also test drove one today!

Disapointed! was my first thought

looks very plain, has better low down pull but there is no real boast! brakes are good, and the interior was nice full sat nav version...

however I will not be buying one, it hurts me to say but im thinking of going over to BMW'S M3...

Dont think Audi will be selling to many of them!

And im sorry to say all of that i love my S3 and was hoping the new one would be better more exciting but it feel very short. :cry:
