Just saw this thread, I owned an RS3 and got rid for a Golf R.
I only kept it a year. The engine and the DSG make it a fast point to point car but it does end becoming a bit clinical. My biggest problems with the car were continued brake issues - high pitch squeaks no matter how you drive! Vibrations through the steering wheel - Audi could not fix this. CV joint problems.. lots of rattles!
Make sure you check the car hasn't been remapped, lots of them have!

Thanks.
Would it need an Audi dealer/specialist to tell if it's been remapped, or could any dealer check for this?
The (only) previous owner is known to the dealer; he's been in regular contact with them since he PXed it. I've asked them to ask him.
