[Audi A3/S3] What does A3 special edition come with as extra

The Special Edition ( not the same as the SE confused.gif) seems to be a base model with the addition of A/C but at a lower price than the standard car. It's nothing like an S-Line...

Seems to only be available with the 1.6 non FSI and 1.9TDI engines, which I don't think are even available in S-Line trim. I'd expect it be more than 2 grand less than an S-Line though. SE and Sport trim are £2k on top of the standard car, and S-Line is another £1,800 on top of that...

Thanks PeterS.

I didnt mean the base model Special edition (for the 1.6 and 1.9 diesel). There was a special edition for the S Line. Some of them got that two tone leather, but I wondered if there was any more equipment.

Like these ones :

Mine came with full leather - I think the rest of the deal was just cheaper price for all the S-line bits that are in addition to the sport model. I'd go for one post May/June 2006 that had the revised 'smooth' front bumper too.

Any car fitted wit the S-line exterior kit(which became standard in June 06) will have the S-Line bumper fitted with no rubbing strips.

basically, what the title says !!

What where the extra toys, I read it was around a 2k saving over the normal S Line but cant really see what the extra options are ?

I have just got hold of my A3 1.9tdi special edition. It comes with nigh on nothing! You get a CD player, manual air-con and elec windows.

If you do go ahead make sure you tick the boxes for DIS, digital climate control, better sounds system, I'd also go for a leather steering wheel (The standard one is horrid!) and fogs.

The wheels on the special editioon are awful, I upgraded to RS6 18's and have just had the car lowered 50mm, looks a lot better! Here's some pics.

My April 06 Sportback came with the full S-Line kit, including the S-Line embossed seats, which a few people didn't have.

Basically I saw it as a discount on the spec, of course, I also got a decent wedge off from the dealer! 169144-ok.gif

As far as extras go, it did come with auto-wipers, anti-glare rearview mirror and auto lights, which I didn't spec, but were on it when I collected. I was told this was a spec change so didn't argue.

The S-line Special Edition is essentially an Audi Exclusive leather interior.

Bits you get;

Full two tone Leather interior (really nice quality soft leather)

RS4 style Alloy Wheels

What you don't

S-line Steering wheel (just a sports one as you can't get S-line wheel with Audi Exclusive)

S-line embossed seats

For what you get and what you pay its a really nice car. Especially if you specify it in white with Open Sky Roof! grin.gif
