Just thought you guys would like to have a gander at my S3, especially as it's going to be up for sale soon, either in modded or standard form...

I'm after an LCR, so if anyone fancies what is basically a fantastic handling, 4 wheel drive LCR :) then give me a shout (late, low mileage examples only)...

Current spec is :-

REVO map
Samco TIP
Forge OO7p DV
JBS Kevlar clutch (Rated at 400lbs torque, utilises DM flywheel)
Neuspeed Short shift
Powerflex bushes
Powerflex dog bone bushes
K&N cone filter
RS4/RS6 plugs (range colder)
Porsche GT3 calipers with ECS R32 2 piece disks, Ferodo DS2500 pads
Koni Coilovers
Forge adjustable rear tie bars
Recaro Speed seats (original Full Black Nappa Leather Recaro's in heated storage)
Beetle Sport Gearknob
R32 Steering Wheel
Milltek non resonated exhaust
Neuspeed ARB's
18" MTM reps with Yoko Parada Spec2's
LCR Splitter

Thanks for the positive comments guys :)

Price? If I returned it to standard (standard would obviously still include the REVO map, clutch and Milltek) then I would be looking for around £9,500.

I'm the third caring owner, car has done 47k and been lavished TLC and servicing.

If you're into modding you would want the car as it is now though, the handling is simply awesome. Having tweaked suspension settings (ride height, toe, camber etc) the car is a match for well sorted Scoobies and EVO's round the twisties. Proven.

WOW
Don't think you'll have too much problem selling that
Surely you can find some way to fit the baby seat in there;)
Very shiney too
What do you wax/polish it with, you must have a PC or rotary?

I know people who have S3's and baby's but to be honest I think my first child is going to be stressful enough without adding to it :)

It's been buffed once (supastork!) but mainly good old spit, polish and elbow grease! Oh, and decent, sympathetic washing techniques...

I use original Turtle wax, Autoglym super resin and Megs, thats it, nothing special. Personally I think all these detailing products are a load of old bollocks, you can't beat good old fashioned TLC and elbow grease!

Car is a 2001/X Facelift with 47k miles, 2 previous owners (previous owner being a friend's wife that did 10k miles in 3 years).

As it is but with the original Full nappa leather heated seats and R32 brake setup i would want £11,200. That still leaves over £3500 of upgrades on the car.

If there is no interest I will put it back to standard (but with Revo, Milltek and clutch) and sell for around £9200.

Shamoo, as it's REVO, it's supposed to be around 270 but from personal experience would say the torque is on or over 300lbs. This thing can launch like you wouldn't believe.

Imagine having a mapped LCR that could set off with no wheel spin. That's an S3.
