Rover's!
Love the S3's, bar the alloys, they could be mistaken for any A3 on the roads. i'd stick a tdi badge on it and torture saxo's lol!

i have loads of pics but i cant find my usb cable :worried: ,

at macguyver, i looked at loads with crazy wheels, bbs etc, i think THEY looked like they were trying to hard, because the tt rims are a genuine audi wheel i think they are the right wheels for it, understated

cheers daisy, not yet, one guy wants it but needs to sell his civic first, other than that car sales seem to be pretty slow from what i hear

brakes are a nice upgrade alright. ARBs too.

if youre serious about handling look into the uprated haldex controller.

cool,never heard of that, how much and what exactly does it do? it handles soo well already tbh and practically impossible to wheel spin even with that crazy raiN!

Looks well in black, I had notions of one again but if going black would love the chrome mirrors on it

Gives you a level of control over the 4wd system so you can attribute more power to the rear

Very nice mate, wanted one of these before I bought the BMW but they were just out of budget with the kind of mileage I was looking.

Enjoy (y)

its a little ecu that controls the front and rear drive split. There is a clutch in the middle that gives rwd when required. The new controller makes this more agressive to give more drive to the rear earlier on.

An S3 is 99% fwd, with the haldex giving some drive to the rear when required.
