well i just sold a3 1.8t sport in gold with 18" rs4 rims and oettinger bodykit ,forge dump valve 190 bhp proper little rocket,and the young lad,,,,,21 or so,,,who bought it is also a good friend of my fitter who lives just to right of romney sands entrance,so you might see it hanging about down that way.
My fitter is a bit of a car nut too, at the moment he has 98 m3 convertible and 04 private plate m3,real nice clean cars.

you got it,slight scuff on n/s door handle and 6/8" scrape on n/s panel , few bits of laquer missing not mint but clean and tidy little car.
goes like stink but the suspension was way too stiff,....shake your teeth out.
i think he has fiddled a bit ,ie, painted callipers big radio etc but on the whole a darned good,and reliable little motor ,i only had an abs sensor go but sold it to him like that.
My fitters name is Steve,a very useful fellow to know, loves doing cam belts,hes reliable and not expensive
give him a nudge if you have any work needing to be done,..he is straight up.

spoke to my fitter today about what a small world this is ,and he knows of you or your car ,apparently the guy who bought your a3 is buddies with the guy who bought my a3 and i think they are both pals with Steve, now how about that.

Yeah thats why i asked for his name.He came round with the 2 lads who bought my A3. And i got them to take me round the block in the gold A3 and the suspension felt non exsistant!lol. Really is a small world....

having never driven a standard a3 turbo myself,would you say that the gold one is 190 bhp,
as thats what i was told when i bought it .
By the way,thats how i bought the car,i certainly would not do a DIY halfords special myself

Its really funny you should say that.I would say its definatley not 190 Bhp. I got Wayne to take me out it it so i could see how fast they are at 190 Bhp, and to be honest it didnt look or feel as fast as my W reg T sport. Did you have doubts then?

fourringsrus
03-11-2009, 10:03 PM
Well I only had doubts because my previous a3 ,a 51 2001 s3 210bhp would have absolutely
raped little miss goldie,but when comparing an s3 in superb factory condition and being so smooth to the gold a3,which as you know is quite harsh and brash/loud with that irritating noise from the dump valve it was quite hard to gauge the possible difference of 20 bhp,but I think you have confirmed my thoughts....anyway he seems to be very happy with it and it was not a bad little touch for £1800 in my pocket.

Yeah thats not a bad price mate.I let m 1998 R reg with climate control,FSH,v.good condition A3 T sport go to his mate for £1720! Your fitter Steve did his best to convince me if was worth less than that,even as far to quibble over the £20 even though i came down from £1895 :smashfrea

But with regards to a 190 BHp ish A3, in a straight line it should keep up with a 210 Bhp S3 as the S3 weights more because of the Haldex system. The Gold A3 is a nice looking car though, just a shame about the suspension really as it rattles quite bad now :aargh4: Did it when you had it?

fourringsrus
03-11-2009, 10:40 PM
rattled ,squeeked banged ,bumped ,all the leather chirped as much as the dump valve
funny enough steve introduced the guy to me and he tried the same stunt on me but i just told him if i scrapped it to the government i could see £2000 for it .,so try again old son.
But to be fair to stevie,he was just trying to do his mucka a turn and he had probably heard me at work telling another fella that I would be happy to see around £1450,but its principles and money was getting tighter.

Yeah your probably right. He kept chipping away at it but i wouldnt budge so he left :kabong: Then his mate said....£1720 is it :D

But il probably be getting my T sport remapped to 190 Bhp sometime soon so i will give you a shout and show you its performance,have you still got the S3?
