Can't be that common - I didn't know they existed until I was flicking through Autotrader and discovered it. I've never seen one out on the road - that said, looking at how subtle the car is, looks wise, I probably wouldn't know if I had.

Pretty sure I don't want the RS3 - I'd only be buying it for the badge status, and I'm not about that. I certainly don't want older just to get higher spec - much rather have something newer. If I was to go S3 I'd be looking around 2017 (if I went for the 1.4 then I might go for the pre-facelift and go 2015/2016, just because I actually prefer the pre-facelift to look at)
