Description
Reluctantly selling my manual black Audi S3 Quattro after a decade of ownership.
This is a rare specification that took months of searching to find back in 2016. I purchased it from a fellow enthusiast who owned it from new, making me the second owner.
The car has been meticulously maintained and driven with genuine mechanical sympathy. I'm a senior mechanical engineer, and it has always been treated with respect. It has lived either in my garage or on the drive its entire life.
Comes with a full service history, backed up with a comprehensive set of invoices and receipts, with Audi original manuals, service book and wallet.
The car drives faultlessly, and the engine sounds the same as the day I bought it, smooth and quiet as it should. I has also benefitted from a recent 4 wheel alignment.
It has the high specification trim level, including Audi Navigation Plus entertainment head unit, full leather seats in the most sought after colour combination, flat bottom leather steering wheel with controls, central arm rest and aluminium pedals. I added an aftermarket Bluetooth adaptor, specifically designed for this head unit, which is hidden behind the dashboard, and allows you to seamlessly play music from your phone from the wireless charging holder.
The panels and paint are in very good condition, but there are a few light surface scratches that could do with some polishing. The interior is in excellent condition, and shows very little signs of wear. I recently replaced the leather armrests on both driver and passenger side doors, as the originals were starting to show some ageing.
It has MOT advisories relating to tyres (minor cuts caused by potholes) and brake disc surface corrosion due to infrequent use. These didn't warrant replacement in my view. The next MOT is due at the end of October, as is the service.
A company vehicle now covers my daily driving, and with limited driveway space, I can't justify keeping the S3 sadly. I'm in no rush to sell, so I'm only interested in serious offers close to the asking price. Thanks for looking.
