1900!
I'm glad i'm getting older 
IMO there are better cars out there.I just like my cars with a bit of soul.They might be quick..comfortable etc but it won't excite you.
My A3 Turbo was nice but it was boring.

Plus the ones in a decent price bracket all seem to have mega mileage.

Really nice cars. £1900 is way too much for insuring an S3 though

Get a couple of years NCB first, unless you can afford the £1900 of course.
Factor in running costs too.

Not bad but if breaks they cost mega money to fix!
The Xenon bulbs are about £120 each!

My classic import scooby I had when I was 21 cost me £2100 to insure! If you really want it then just do it
Although, I was speaking to a guy the other night who had a scooby, and he had an S3 before that and said it wasn't a touch on the scoob

Yeah true but in general they Audi make cars that are dull to drive.With the exeption of the new RS4 and old Quatro's.

Impreza's are relaible.There's just so many that have been thrashed to within an inch of there lives! Any car will die after enough punishment.They need to be looked after like any performance car and some people just don't treat them right.
