I’ve had my s3 for over a year and a half now and I love it every time I drive it. Comfort mode drives easy and soft and cheap like a corolla, throw it in dynamic and it feels like a race car and the exhaust note opens up. Despite its size I am still able to fold down the rear seats and throw my bike in with the front tire removed. Amazing car 💪

could i ask what you got it revoked for? ive just sent my license off :( im losing it just not sure if it will be a ban or just a revoke so i can retake tests and get it back quickly.

Alexander Samuel - Video Reviews ahhhh shit that’s some unlucky shit, but from what you’ve told me it’s not that bad you won’t get banned. Just reapply for the license and you just gotta do both theory and practical test again unfortunately if you had your license for under 2 years. So the sooner you get it the better. 👍🏽
Don’t really help to be honest. Majority was just you talking about your self. What I want to know is how much the services on it are. Did you get a deal for your first 2 services like vw do if not did they do a deal some where else. Every one know it drink that’s not new
Looking at one of these for my next car. Fuel wise isn’t too bad, I have a Ford Fiesta ST200 MK7 and I put a full tank in every 2 weeks and that costs £63 🙈 Insurance wise it’ll be just slightly over £500 whereas my Fiesta costs £679!!
I love this video man, it’s nice to see how good you feel when you speed a bit, I can feel the rush too. I’m a bit of a loner and just watching this listening to you talk and drive it’s like I’m there also with a friend. The U.K. roads look cool, not very busy in your area it seems. I’m in DC and it’s crazy crowdedZ
I used to go to audi for services, they are more expensive, and do a poor job. I only go to germanautocare (not an advert lmao), just saying an independent garage is best, if they are reputable of course.
£35 a week? You must drive in efficient mode 24/7. I top up £65 full tank every 3 days but that’s in dynamic mode and even if I switch between efficient and dynamic I’m still looking at topping up every 5 days a full tank
Josh Sullivan just seen this, I average 1k miles a month, you can’t enjoy the car in efficient mode. It can be efficient depending on how you drive it but it’s an S3 I still top up full tanks every 3-4 days cuz I’d rather have fun with it IMO. It’s just misleading to a lot of people when people watch these vids and think petrols gonna be fine. Realistically if you buy an s3 you’re gonna spend couple hundred £ on petrol a month🤣🤣🤣
You made me feel much better, got the hatchback version 67 plate white, was just thinking about future costs including the renewal of insurance. Good vid 👍👍
@@JoshSullivanFashion ah mate hope you’re enjoying something new. Just out of interest which insurance did you go with, as I am currently in the process of looking at the moment. ?
I don’t understand for a 2015 hatch back S3 with 3 years no claims (I’m 20) it’s costing me £1017 to insure, how is yours so much? The car looks absolutely insane btw
I drive on A13 everyday (duel carriage way doing 50 to 70) 7 miles going 7miles coming back. On a E92 320d (tunned to 226bhp) 75pound full tank gives me 3week and 3days. Considering getting a S3 rather then a 2.0TFSI (tunned) Since fuel might be similar. So on a S3 what am.i looking at? since my travel is on A13 hardly drive on local roads.
For some reason my 2018 s3 doesn’t crackle and pop from the exhaust even though I disconnected the valve flaps. It never did it before I disconnected them either. What am I doing wrong?
Thank you very much for making and uploading such a great video about cost of running new s3. Im not loaded with plenty of £££££ but i would say cost is really affordable for most of people in uk easly :) for fun you get from this s3 price is low :)
I'm 18, currently got an S3 2018, I do around 120-150 miles a week. Drive 10 miles to and from work Mon-Fri (100miles). Get around 22-25mpg (28-30 when there is a school holiday). Traffic is very bad since I live in London. Auto Start/Stop is a life saver. Then depending on the weekend and how I drive there I usually fill up every 2 weeks. Sometimes 1 1/2 weeks so around 2/3 fill ups a month. Insurance wise i'm paying 1.9k/yr. Car is very good daily and weekend car if you need one to drive around on both.
Aint no way you get 1.9k on an audi s3 at that age unless you got some form of black box that aint happening im 18 and there is no way in hell I would be able to find a single insurance company to insure me on that car and if they did it would be mad high
@@chiquicat1 to be fair people can do what they want with their money, same as if they want to snort it up their nose! U can tell tho he lives with mammy
You won’t get insured; I’m 19 and have the cash to pay for one outright due to basically saving for 3 years, but my current insurance won’t insure me and it’s £2.5k on compare the market so even though I can afford it that is stupid money. I’m 19, 20 in august and will have 3 years NCD in November so am waiting until then before I start looking for one.
Do a car history video, talking about the previous cars you had and anything you want to mention about each one. (mods, likes/dislikes about it etc, running costs) also should have included how much you're paying for the actual car in this video. if you do the car history video, would be cool if you said what made you choose the S3 over the other models.
You know a car is fun to drive when it puts a smile on your face. Enjoy the many rendezvous Josh, I'm sure she loves you as much as you do her. haha :)
Josh Sullivan tbh when I was buying my s3 I looked at yours bro your one was on my list to but then my friend came through with one which had everything not saying that’s it’s didn’t but the sports seats I wanted I don’t if u super sports seats or not
Great video bro. We definitely need more car videos and a asos summer haul 2019! Keep it up.
Second verse! Speaker yes bro🙌🏼🙌🏼
19 years old and 2 year no claim bonus on the s3, i got a quote of 2.5k. It’s a 15 plate
not bad man
Adam it’s at London. Near gatwick airport.
lol I’m 21 with 1 year no claim, got quoted 24k😳
Guy at work just got an S3 as well, it's mad nice

20 to the gallon? You must be hooning it constant! My 3L M135i would do 26mpg round town and I’m no slouch.
haha just because i potter about tbf
Bigger displacement is better for motorway driving. More economical if driven properly
nice vid bro! looking at the fuel prices now, how much are you spending on these types of cars weekly?
Cheers mate. I actually dont have the car anymore but i guessing it would be a lot more haha
I used to go to audi for services, they are more expensive, and do a poor job. I only go to germanautocare (not an advert lmao), just saying an independent garage is best, if they are reputable of course.
Would of really appreciated if you said how much depo you put down? Also how long your contract is if you haven’t bought it out right.
Yeh defo he hasnt said that. Could well go up to 700 plus a month if u add car payment
Presumably bought it out right

Can’t compare with a diesel ...
Running costs seem ok, but did you buy the car outright (cash)? or is it on finance?
fair play to the lad if he's able to pay for this outright at 22
Hi, how much will it cost to insure if you are 17 and it is your first car?
Depends on many factors. The car, your job, address any motoring convictions. At 17 in a 300bhp car I bet you’re looking at 3-5 grand a year.
3-5k with a blackbox so there’s not really any point
Miltek exhaust and stage 1 remap would make the car a beast
would be sick haha
