Sooooooo
My rear brakes aren't working at all. Bit annoying. Audi don't seem interested with the claim I've put in for brakes all round.
Good job the fronts are 8 pots.
I guess not. RS3's have good residuals too. I'll probably sell this at 2 years old on 50k ish. I'll owe £25k on it at that point, so it should be worth around that considering 5 year old ones with 50k on are worth that currently.
Its averaged 508 miles a week so far. Which is actually quite low for me! Although thats still nearly 1.5 tanks of super a week, or 6 a month. Maybe I should have a diesel.
Just worked it out:
Fuel a month RS3 = £330
Fuel a month in a Diesel doing 50 mpg = £200
Ouch.....
Jag seemed faster as it pulled from lower down and there was zero lag. The RS3 can be a bit laggy sometimes.
Just did a tank of fuel with no motorway driving or long journeys. 32.1mpg lol.
Under wide open throttle it keeps the rear active at between 10-15% in the RS models. You have to remember the drag in the system is there regardless of power going through it. Yes its less than having a fixed 4wd system but its a lot more than FWD.
Yeah @ 70mph I get nearly 40mpg.
@ 80 I get 34ish mpg.
I average 34 over most tanks which includes mixed driving. A tank with no motorway driving will still return 33mpg, then again I don't drive like a c**t.
No rollout. Remember the 0-60 is not 0-62 which might need a gearchange just....
It is stock, just puts out 32bhp more than it should lol.
I wasn't far off Evo's times.
Just passed 11500 miles in it.
Had a play with a VBOX
0-60 - 3.62 seconds
0-100 - 9.1 seconds
1/4 Mile - 11.96 seconds
Doesn't feel that quick on the road though..
Still averaging 34.1 mpg too.
