My understanding was the VW boys would pay top dollar as only models like the S3 got them normally. Love the blue!

My friends 53 plate S3 didn`t have one until he tracked one down. I vaguely remember him grumbling about the stupid rarity of the s3 arm rest.:)

car is now running sweet and has also been remapped, no idea on figures but it boosts harder and feels a lot quicker so im happy

new 18" wheels are on with decent tyres (marangoni's) that don't want to spit you into a ditch

only other things planned are 334mm discs, Porsche brembo calipers, 3" downpipe,de-cat and maybe a milltek exhaust then that's it.

although 800ps would be nice

Not had a lot of time for automotive stuff lately since moving house and fitting a new kitchen and a whole heap of other stuff but I have managed to get the s3 running sweet after finding several split hoses and vaccum leaks
All replaced with red 3mm and 8mm silicone hose
Also had a delivery today to replace some others

Now boosting nicely with a nice little punch

Managed to give it a proper wash last week using various auto glym products

I like these and as usual TK the mods do nothing but improve it

I thought this was a daily you weren't going to mod ;)

Looks nice though, love the colour.

I wouldn't say mod, more tweaking :)
And yes it's a daily driver for my country road commute

Brakes are defiantly next up to tweak as they feel quite poor
Especially now it's been remapped
