2016 Audi RS3

[Waitey]

So, you got your name down for a RS3 saloon yet?

No I need a sport back really for work.
They are trying to sell me a TTRS but over all I'm not overly happy with the situation regarding my car.

How much is a new TTRS ?

I often look at the used ones, 25k is strong money for a "nice to look at and nice sounding" car. Maybe for the lady when we're rich...

52g's spec'd up. NOT CHEAP.

Used R8 money :/

 

[Waitey]

Yeah but an old 4.2 v8 R8 feels about 1000000000000000000 years old now. New R8 is noice though.

The old TTRS has aged pretty well, that said it's only 5 years old....

Imagine paying £50k for a car and it being worth £25k 5 years later, I suppose £5k per year isn't that bad in the scheme of things though. Just sounds like a lot when you say it.

Most new cars get to the 50% of purchase cost after 3 years. Audi's are fairly good on that respect. Especially the RS models.

Oh I get that, but most new cars don't cost £50k to start with. Even that's not horrendous in the scheme of things I suppose.

Think about the people that buy brand new, fully loaded S classes or 7 series.

Or M5's...... @Hans.

 

[RDH]

Wavering off topic but read in numerous places that the previous gen TTRS is horrendously unreliable.

 

[Herr Flick]

Or M5's...... @Hans.

Ah..... BUT my M5 cost only a little more than the RRP of a RS3!

 

[Waitey]

Just like all the others that were sold!

Love you.

 

[Lal B3N]

Mates just traded his in for 35k against a GTR. I think I'll miss it more than he will, great car.

 

[Waitey]

Launch control yo! Span all 4 wheels at the start. Damn dusty tarmac!

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

That'll be launch number 1478, then?

 

[Ex-User (19928)]

That's ballistic! How can you tell it was all 4 wheels and not just the fronts ?

 

[Waitey]

The 4 lines I left behind haha.

 

[Addicted]

Pfft, doesn't even wheelspin in 6th?

 

[Waitey]

Number 7..... maybe.

 

[Ex-User (19928)]

s**t that's mad!

Does it have adaptive cruise?

 

[Waitey]

s**t that's mad!

Does it have adaptive cruise?

No because I'm a chav and wanted the lower 'Quattro' logo....

 

[Ex-User (19928)]

That is quite chav.. That with adaptive cruise is my idea of a perfect daily! Do you ever get bored of something like that? (If not do you get bored of paying for something like that?)

 

[Waitey]

I'm the last person to ask. I get bored of everything. I've done 13500 miles in 6 months, so you get really used to it, really quickly.

 

[Herr Flick]

Chav.

 

[Waitey]

Chav.

Says you. You like Joey Essex's lost brother.

 

[Silent_Scone]

I get playback error on that vid. You broke youtube

 

[Waitey]

Works for me?

 

[Silent_Scone]

Works now, weird.
I reckon my heaps quicker off the line, man. Not tried one handed mind you lol

 

[Herr Flick]

So I thought i'd try it in mine. Pointless as f**k.


Whoops!

 

[Waitey]

LOL Bmw's have a setting so you can change the rev's it launches at to stop that happening...

 

[Herr Flick]

It was 3500 RPM lol.

 

[Waitey]

It was 3500 RPM lol.

Maybe take the Walni Re Moulds off it?

 

[Herr Flick]

Ha. Pirelli P Zeros all round.
I miss my C63.

 

[Waitey]

You don't own a corner shop though.

** Drove through Bradistan the other day and saw 7, yes SEVEN, RS3's outside corner shops lol.

 

[philmots]

That's pretty much what mine did, I hooked second early on though and it just kept them spinning, then I bottled it.

Every other car around here is an RS3 or GolfR. I don't think I'd be exaggerating if I said there were 100 RS3s in Bradford.

 

[Ex-User (19928)]

I don't think I've seen a new RS3 yet- plenty of Rolfs though.

 

[Herr Flick]

I've only seen a couple and they've all been proper ragging it.

 

[alistairolsen]

Seen a few, they do sound epic!

 

[Cookie]

Not many RS3's round here, every other car is a Golf R now. Makes a change from every other car being a f**king Fiesta ST.

I want an RS6, the old one with the V10.. I need to use my dads firm for finance purposes
