DESCRIPTION

When it comes to hot hatches, no-one does cool and classy, but with a sledgehammer hit of performance, like Audi. The RS3 has long been the brand’s pinnacle compact performance car and, coming in a sophisticated coat of jewel-like Daytona Grey pearlescent paint, which has been further enhanced by over 40 hours of meticulous multi-stage machine paintwork correction, this late-2019 8V Sport-Edition model perfectly encapsulates that ethos.

 

Featuring over £7,000 of factory optional extras, including the sought-after gloss black styling package with 19in blade wheels, panoramic sunroof, carbon-fibre interior inlays and Nappa leather Supersport seats, this stunning Sportback model is an outstanding example of Audi’s all-conquering RS3 hot hatch.

Being the 8V.2 facelift model, this exceptional vehicle is equipped with Audi’s iconic turbocharged five-cylinder powerplant. Combined with the orchestral RS Sports exhaust system, this brawny motor features a lightweight aluminium engine block and packs a 400bhp punch, endowing the five-door RS3 with a 0-60mph time of just 3.9 seconds and offering performance and practicality in spades.

Technologically advanced with the visually superb Virtual Cockpit, Apple CarPlay, smartphone wireless charging and hill-hold assist, it offers all the refinement one would ever want from a market-leading hot hatch.

With just one previous enthusiast owner and a verified 17,600 miles from new, it comes complete with full Audi main dealer service history – including a recent Haldex rear diff service – and still enjoys the security of the Audi manufacturer’s warranty until November 2022.

This is a rare opportunity to secure a completely unmolested specimen of one of the latest registered Audi 8V-model hot hatches, which benefits from an exceptionally attractive finance package compared to other RS3 models.

Paintwork: In Sublime Condition as you would expect from us for the mileage. This is without doubt one of the best condition 8V RS3’s we have ever had, credit to its previous owner.

  • Paintwork is Factory Original on the entire vehicle, with no evidence of non-factory paintwork after rigorous inspection by our in-house professional detailers with a Paint Depth Gauge, displaying consistent Microns readings of paint thickness on every body panel. Be rest assured this is an RS that had led a life free of damage, verified by us as Professional Detailers.
  • Areas that are prone to Stone Chips are in exceptional condition such as; Front End, Rear Arches & Sideskirts. We are struggling to find fault; with the exception of a handful of miniscule stone chips to the bonnet and to the front bumper (which are much less than you would expect for the mileage and hardly worth mentioning)
  • No Dents, Scratches or Abrasions present on ANY Body Panels
  • No marks on the top of the rear bumper from loading items into the boot
  • No stone chips to the windscreen
  • No scuffs under the front bumper or side skirts
  • This is without doubt one of the Finest Condition RS3’s we have ever offered

 

We are pedantic with our condition reports for complete transparency to any potential buyers. Presented as you would expect from a respected Detailing Centre.
