My Car History | Part 4

So, part four already. Now this instalment brings you up to date as of the time I'm typing this and includes a bit of an insight as to what the plans are for the car too. If you haven't already guessed this part is the S3.

So I have only owned the S3 for a few months at this point in time, however, this is a car I have always wanted to own and has been on my hit list for a long time. My older brother had an A3 8P which made me appreciate these way more, and at the same time, one used to drive past me whilst on my way to school. I was lucky enough to get this S3 for an absolute steal as it was set to go to a trade, being the low mileage example it was, I couldn't let that happen and snapped it up for myself.

To give a bit more detail about the car, it's a 2010 Audi S3 8P facelift with the CDL 2.0 TFSI. It's a 6-speed manual and 3-door variant, something that made this car perfect to me. It keeps things simple and you can just get in this thing and go. Now since I've only had the car for a few months at the time of typing, I haven't done some crazy build or any modifications at all. Unless you class a wiper delete a mod. Instead, for the initial steps of making this car mine, it has been maintenance and upkeep. All of which will be documented and posted in good time.

What are the plans for the future? For now, getting it running with a bit more power reliably. Along with the supporting mods like bigger brakes, better cooling, and better handling. I want to keep the OEM feel as to me this car already is perfection in terms of looks and I don't want to mess with it. There are a few bits of paintwork that need addressing as well as a couple of dents too, but for the age of the car, it has been well looked after by the previous owners.

As always, plans can change. So if they do, they will be posted here and I guess we will see if my plans remain or if they go in a completely different direction in the end.

So stay tuned for the upcoming content on the S3 as there is bound to be some coming shortly. 

As always, enjoy the ride,

E.
