Sharkie Posted March 5, 2018 Author Posted March 5, 2018 thanks Joe ! would love an RS3 maybe the next one !聽 Regards Mark聽
Sharkie Posted March 5, 2018 Author Posted March 5, 2018 Hi Steve聽 it was a C250 CDI AMG Sport Plus Nice to look at Engine strong lots of torque but noisey Auto Gearbox ...realy bad very slow , clunky not good ...shame聽 ride was a little harsh .. but great on motorway !!!! still didnt do enough motorway miles to keep plus the wife didnt like聽聽it ...聽
Adbro Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 Hello Mark and welcome back. Great taste you have but gotta say the MK1 A3 is my personal favourite 馃槏.
Sharkie Posted March 5, 2018 Author Posted March 5, 2018 Hi Adam thank you , to be honest im really liking the S3 but the mk1 has a special place as it was our first ever new car and an Audi at that. it was even better when AMD at Bicester tuned it to 200bhp from the 150 bhp used to really surprise BMW and Merc drivers. Was a bit of a sleeper ...as i kept it standard other than the tune and a better air filter ....wonder where she is now ?聽 Happy Times聽 Cheers Mark聽
