S3's are good cars Rudey, up to date, fast & look nice.
nice amount of room them to. one of my friends deals in them (i think it's
www.croftmotors.co.uk ???) & i've done a bit of work for him in the past, i was well impressed with the S3's. not a bad choice for a family car either, just because
you have a kid it dosn't mean you have to become a nerd, when Sassy had our first boy everyone said we would have to get a sensible family car!!!
so we listened to them & got a 4x4 saff. (it had 4 doors )
now we've got 2 kids & she's got a 3 door
the S3 has to be worth a thought, i nearly got one, i've just had the Fords so long
it was hard to break away.

My mates got a AudiS3 (the more powerful of the 2 option ones) and its fucking shite, sooo unimpressed by it.

Not exiting at all, shame as it looks smart and has all the bits that youd expect to make a fast car, but its wank.

I had a 225bhp S3 for six weeks before I sold it on (for my RS4) 'cause I hated it.

The front seats don't fold foward enough (unlike the cloth seats) for people to get into the back easily, the front screen takes ages to demist, and off boost performance is piss poor - no power at all, and the six speed box is a pain in the arse. Don't buy one - my mate bought a 150bhp A3 FWD with the five speed box - much nicer, fun to drive, and not slow either
