Decided to treat myself to a new car after having the GTD for roughly 5 years during in which i got married and became a father.

Ive had itchy hands for the 18 months about buying a new car, looking at e92 m3s ( which i still love and will hopefully own one before i kick the bucket), Golf R's but couldn't justify changing to them for a faster engine , same with the GTI with PP. Looked into A45's but for some reason ive never been a lover of merc's.. even though the noise of the C63 etc is lush.

Then Graham from hollybrook said ill do you a good deal on the RS3 and sent across figures.. and then it aroused my suspicion on them as i didnt know to much about RS3's.

Started researching them and found info on owner clubs, spent hours watching different videos on youtube and learnt about their iconic 5 cylinder engine and even consulted a couple of rms users as well buying the decision process.

Sunday past Graham called over with the RS3 and let me drive it.. and that was it.. mind made up.. deal done and got it yday :laughing: superb service from the team at hollybrook from start to finish.. was all hassle free.

So enough of the boring details, here's all the info about it

Haven't drove the car much yet but so far all i can say is WOW and the note from the exhuast is immense.

That’s lovely. The Maxton splitter & side extensions are a nice add on. Super spec and nice upgrade from the GTD.

Lovely, good to see it has the SS seats.

The splitter and side skirts look really well.

Great Bronk and as said, the Maxton's are a nice addition - recently added the skirts to my S3 and wish I did it a few years ago!

Mightn't interest you now but these respond so well to a Stage 1 map with over run! :grinning:

Been researching maps already, cant believe how much power can be got from them with just bolt on mods and map, but prob enjoy it for a while first before throwing money at it.. as i want to get a nice plate for it as well.

Seen a miltek secondary de cat pipe on ebay, they sound amazing with them on when on full boost.

I would have thought an exhaust and a nice plate would be enough, 370bhp should be more than enough, unless of course you plan a lot of track days.
