New car incoming

Post by toyneg » Wed Aug 17, 2016 9:31 am

After recently selling my B7 RS4 I decided to stick with Audi and with a bit of compromise ordered myself a 2017 S3 Saloon in Glacier White with Advanced Tech Pack, S-Tronic, B&O Sound system, Privacy Glass, extended Leather etc. Have a week 42 build slot so will be driving my girlfiend's 1.2 Polo for the next few months :(
when it arrives I plan to sort the stance out with some springs and spacers and that's about it for now I think

Nice one Graham. The S3 saloons look good!

Cool, looking forward to seeing it at a meet sometime Graham. It's going to feel very fast after all that waiting in the Polo :lol:

I know right Sam, it will certainly make me think a bit in future, I used to think people held me up on purpose but now I see how slow some cars are there is literally nothing you can do sometimes, i've never know acceleration like it haha.

I'm sure it won't be long Mike haha, I am quite looking forward to having a turbo again where you can do a map for example and it make a fair difference.

and yeah will def be coming to the meets again :)

Congrats Graham. Glacier white is a fantastic colour and the saloon is definately a good looking car.

Rule 1. :thumbs:

Surely it's in your possession now? I'd have been outside the dealership front door, first thing.
