Model Overview:

Automotive Addiction is one of the UK’s most respected Audi RS Specialists having sold over 700 examples since 2015. It is also the group expert on the Audi RS Owners Club – as such it is proud to offer for sale this stunning 2018 Audi RS3 8V Sportback. 

Coated in flawless Nardo grey pearl paintwork with contrasting gloss black details, 8.5x19in OZ Leggera lightweight wheels and red brake calipers to add a pop of colour, this range topping hot hatch is offered in what many consider to be the most iconic and collectible colourway.

Featuring over £9,200 of factory optional extras including the RS Interior Design Package, Driver Assistance Package, Audi Magnetic Ride Control, Bang & Olufsen audio and RS Sports exhaust to name just a few, it is packed to the gills with highly desirable OE options.

 

 

Coming equipped with the 2.5-litre TFSi 5-cylinder DAZA engine – one of the most sought after powerplants for Audi enthusiast due to that legendary five-cylinder growl, – it is not only louder than post-2019 models – due to a lack of sound muffling OPF filters – but it is also stronger and more tuneable too. 

Making the most of these traits is a Revo Carbon Series intake and turbo elbow, Milltek V2 downpipe and a TTU stage 2 ECU tune to 520PS – including a stage 2 calibration of the transmission ECU for faster shifts. Combined with a set of KW lowering springs and Xpel self-healing extended front end paint protection film, this adds up to £11,615 worth of aftermarket modifications. 

The mileage of this machine has been verified with Audi Dealer diagnostics equipment at just 34,500 miles, with a launch counter reading zero launches since new (Yes zero!) – meaning this is a rare chance to own an RS3 that has never been launched! 

It comes with five previous Audi enthusiast keepers, all of which are known personally to Automotive Addiction and present excellent ownership history. We supplied this RS3 to its first owner in 2018 when it was brand new and it has remained in the Automotive Addiction network ever since, and now we are proud to offer it again.

As with all cars sold by Automotive Addiction, this Audi RS3 8V has been subjected to our signature 100-hour preparation process; where it has received 60-hours of meticulous detailing by our in-house professionals with over a decade of experience in our bespoke studio adding ‘our difference’ to this Audi RS3 prior to sale. This includes multi-stage machine paint correction as well as treatments to the paint protection film, undercarriage, wheels, brakes, glass and interior (adding up to a total of £1,200 worth of detailing prior to sale).
