I can't remember the exact name of the Audi colour that is similar to VW steel grey on the S3's but it really really suits them :notworthy:
How do you think the S3 compares to the Ed30 apart from the traction improvement?

Without a doubt the Audi feels more special. The quality of the interior is second to none, everything feels so solid. Apart from that there isn't a great deal. As you mentioned the handling and traction is the biggest difference which makes it much easier to live with day to day than my old ED30 :happy2:

Why does everyone always only ever consider VW or Audi, at times blindly so?! There are several other good brands out there that make really decent cars aka BMW that for some reason, people here never consider!? Very odd!
oh, im getting a new car, but its VAG without even questioning it. aside from the golf GTI/R the other VW cars are naff, the S3 is dated and dull, and the other audi cars are generally inferior to their BMW counterparts!
anyone care to enlighten me as to the reason for this? id be interested to know!

Just worked out, if you factor the depreciation of your car since new, and the mileage you have done, you have paid approx £3 for every mile driven, then add in Tax and petrol, and you may as well get a taxi to take you places. :laugh: :wink:
Anyway thought the tyres, paint, steering wheel, engine, gearbox are all options on BMW?
think I may have poked a stick in, waiting for the hornets!!!!!!!!!! :scared:
regardless of the miles covered it can also be about the time owned, i have a mate who rarely uses his car (has a company car) but changes every 2-3 years, a case of some new metal to play/clean
if it were me, i'm not so sure i'd be looking at the golf or the audi, with the miles you do i think my money would be thrown at something a little more unique to own.. second hand and carefully bought you could sit down happily into a TVR, Porsche, Ferrari, Aston etc :innocent:
The TVR is an acquired taste, but at only a couple of thousand miles a year he wont see that many issues.. was just for eg
my a$$ would be firmly in a ferrari :innocent:

Porsche. End of!
Porsche or VAG. Ummmm tough one that!! It's not all about out and out speed
Carrera S would suit me, and that's penty raw and fast enough for my liking. Plus a nice bit of sideways action to boot. Just no comparrision with a VAG, unless we're talking R8, but I'd still have the Porsche.

If you are talking Turbo or GT3RS then yes I'd agree.
The others aren't beefy enough for my liking :P

....Try a bit less Yorkshire Pudding with your beef :evilgrin:
From my play against a guy in a Carrera yesterday, I know my beef was tastier than his :P
As Oli said earlier, it's not just about which car has the best performance but more a case of which has the desired performance AND which suits your particular lifestyle. What it costs is simply down to what you either can afford or want to spend - Constantly chasing value-for-money will never buy you happiness regarding cars.
What's great about our GTI's and similar hatchbacks is how practical they are on an everyday basis as well as delivering respectable performance.
The rest is what you fancy, what excites you.
Looked at several cars the weekend, well ones I could!! (No Golf R about)
Just a quick question the vw scirocco r, does it use the same engine as the ED30?
Getting around the £15k mark for a trade in on my car, is this realistic?
Cheers
I think if I were in your position I would be looking at a Lotus Exige for a weekend car :happy2:I think you could be on to something there!!

The factory is only 15 miles down the road from me. :P
