-
Looks mint that mate. :notworthy:
How would you describe the colour, cant really tell from the pictures, looks more white than Grey.
EDIT: can sort of tell from the last picture...cant decide what colour is best now, need to see one in the flesh me thinks.
-
Looking awesome mate we will get some good pics in a couple of weeks!
The colour is so nice! It looks amazing in the sun, when parked next to a white car the difference is unreal, my favourite colour on a car at the moment!

Love the colour of this car since I saw one last year. Might get another S3 but in a diff colour & with buckets if the RS3 doesnt come out or it only a sportback option
-

The colour is my favourite colour by far... When the sun hits the paint it goes pearlecent and when the sunds setting its a propa grey blue colour its hard 2 explain lol...

looking good mate

Awesome Ash, makes a world of difference to the feel of the car driving on lightweight 18's! Looking forward to seeing her in the flesh at the Pod :drinking: :happy2:
-
the rotos are awesome but looks the business on the turinis!!
-
i must be one of the only peoples that doesnt like the rotiforms... and that last pic of the turinis makes me agree with myself. thats looks fierce!!
could see them being a bit darker also!
:congrats:
stunning car...... this would be my next car,esp if move up the promotional ladder at some time and get a company car :evilgrin:
matsu
-
Nah, I agree, I just think the Rotiforms are too OTT. They remind me too much of Kahn alloys, which is no good thing!
The Turinis look awesome though.
-
Rotiforms will be coming back next year but a 3 piece fordged race series set! My good friend is the europe distributor!
Heres some more pics of the speedline turini's! :smiley: The way it handles and drives now is unreal :laugh:

Bit of a update...
Went to AMD rolling road day on Sunday and the car made 253.3 hp which is down on standard power but they said it's due to the gearbox changing up as it's s tronic..
Today I went to G-werks and had a full Miltek de cat fitted (pics to follow 2mz) it's a nice bit of kit compared to the standard restricted pipe.... The noise is proper!! I love it on normal driver it's nice and quiet but a bit deeper and then when your right foot gets all excited all hell breaks loose .
Off to Revo HQ in the morning so il have another update and pics 2mz.
Ash.
-
Well how did it go with Kev and the boys...? :jumping:
-
Heres some pics of the pipe...
very restricted stock pipe...

2 day i took a trip to Revo HQ at daventry as G-Werks had revo training as they are now revo dealers and used my car as a demo car.. met Kev whos a top geezer and knows his stuff. We went straight to stage 2 but its toned down a bit as i dont have a intake yet.. The car is completely different just need to get myself a itg intake and a pump now. :laugh:
I find the S3 so much more planted and quicker compared to my mk5 golf gti and my mk6 golf gti..
Ash.

Looking good Ash, didn't notice your car at UD, though there were a few A3/S3's but don't think I saw any others in Suzuka grey.

Shame those lights inside made it look more white. Looked great though.
