nobody? anyone got one as company car? what about other finance options to buy an S3? Surly not everyone on here has saved up 30k and bought one outright?!?!.. Just interested in best methods and deals for running one monthly...

Anyone on here leasing an S3? Be interested to know the monthly cost?

Cool, cheers for the info Merlot! much happier now i know im paying for something that will indeed be beneficial i'd be interested to know what other options you spec'ed also? ive got, interior light pack, storage, rain and light, dvd plus, bose, acoustic parking front and rear, no smoking, folding mirrors, tint glass, roof rails, blutooth phone, ami, and magnetic ride.

yeah havn't managed to get one to test drive yet. so it sounds good then dont happen to know what the balance of ride is like compare to a standard one then?

Hi, Im a returning customer as they say I used to have an 02 S3, loved it, best car i ever owned. Moved away and got something else... now, i'm back on track with a new S3 sportback on order! hurar!. Have a question regarding magnetic ride thingie - im currently browsing through what options to have, what's good and what's not worth it!. I do a fair amount of miles, and so was wondering if anyone knew wiether the "comfortable" setting with the magnetic ride is more comfortable than the standard S3 ride?!?! I would assume that the normal suspension is a balance between comfort and rigidity, and so the magnetic ride allows the car to "firm up" in sporty mode... but, is it also more soft in comfort mode??!?! Oddly, i'm more likely to want the option if it allows for extra comfort in normal ride, instead of the promoted race stiffness.. i don't do racing.. other than whipping the odd clever d** in something with a silly fat exhaust
