Description
This is my fully loaded AUDI S3 Black Edition in stunning Sepang Blue, I purchased it Category N with light front end bumper damage and interior airbags deployed. With the front bumper damaged I decided to put on the RS3 bumper and replaced all the interior airbags with OEM parts, this included a new black Quattro dash. I am still at university so keeping this high performance car insured and consistently well maintained would be difficult.
Servicing is good on the car I went to AUDI and they had service history on the car up to 50k miles, there is the a gap from 50k to 75k as I purchased it on 75k with no history. Upon delivery I did an engine oil, engine oil filter, spark plug and cabin air filter change. I have more recently done a DSG and Haldex oil and filter change with Febi parts being used for both. From the MOT feedback I replaced both rear tyres and also the lower arm, shock and top mount on the right hand side.
In terms of power modifications it has a Ramair intake which came as I purchased it and it seems pretty quick indicating a healthy engine. There is no chain rattle on a cold start and holds temperature well. The exhaust has had a mid res delete done by the previous owner which sounds nice and doesn't drone.
Great features I've enjoyed:
The interior is immaculate, no marks on the leather just some creases on the drivers bolsters.
The bucket seats are a very rare and valuable option on the S3 completely changing how the car feels inside.
The B&O sound system is immense the sub in the back creates a great depth.
The adaptive cruise is perfect for road trips it's responsive and works perfectly when tracking cars on anything from a backroad to motorway.
The LED adaptive headlights are incredibly bright with auto dipping they are responsive enough that you don't blind anyone.
What would I do next if I was keeping it?
The wheels if you wished to keep them OEM could do with a referb as the previous owner must have been partial to a curb.
The paintwork is lovely but if you wanted a perfect example there are some light scratches on the rear bumper and a small dent in the rear quarter on the right hand side.
The private plate is included to cover the above items I had it evaluated at 3.2k.
The sale value is fair so please don't waste time offering silly numbers.
