Signed away my GTi

Redline · Post by **Redline** » Sat Jul 12, 2008 2:35 pm

Just put a deposit down on an 2002 Audi S3, with the GTi being traded in.

Quite sad to giving up the GTi, been a great little car over the 3.5 years I've owned it but it's time to move on.

Also it's a shame to be moving on from the Polo scene too, having been a member here for what seems like forever even if my post count doesn't quite reflect that

Can't go wrong with an S3

I drove one the other day, they are amazing!

S3's are gorgeous! Upwards indeed!

A definite worthy replacement mate, onwards and upwards indeed. When you picking it up/dropping it off?

Well the S3 is ready to be collected when I want.

But I'm swapping my number plate over to it, so it should be next weekend by the time everything is sorted out.

I'll be sure to get some pics posted up when I take ownership!

Congrats Redline. You will have to show it off at the next Section-5 meet

I just picked my 03 plate S3 up yesterday 9saturday) and have done 300 miles in it this weekend! will miss the polo when it goes apart from the heavy clutch, good choice of car, what colour?

It's metallic (ebony I think?) black with black full leather.

Really can't wait now, already got a few things planned for it.

mine is mugello blue, black leater recaro's aluminium mirrors 18's and bose sound, have you found any good forums for us S3 owners

The one I'm getting has the Bose sound system and alloy wing mirrors.

Recaros are heated, not that they'll be much use at the minute!

In terms of forums, http://www.audi-sport.net seems to have some pretty useful information on, haven't checked out any others yet really.

Re forums, try tyresmoke.net as before it rebranded to tyresmoke it was a massive Audi forum!
