Funnily enough after not seeing an S3 for ages I saw two yesterday within minutes on the bypass near IKEA. A grubby red one and a lovely metallic blue one that must have been DSG as it made a great noise accelerating.
I’ve come to the conclusion as to why I’ve had 4 mk7’s and no S3.
The Audi is just another corporate hatch hiding behind its “prestige” grille badge. The S3 looks like a mid range Diesel still. I guess that’s what S3 buyers like, that total Q car look with “that” badge.
I’m definitely more of a GTI person. I wouldn’t mind being an RS3 person but I’m too poor.
