When will RS3 production run halt?
« on: May 30, 2012, 11:54:34 am »
I see the new A3 is out in September is it?

Will the RS3 run past this date or was it meant to be a very limited run of numbers in any event?

Am thinking of stopping modding the Eddie soon and putting the money I spend on mods each month towards an RS3 fund.

thanks so how many roughly will have been made for the UK? Is yours individually numbered?

I need a 5 dr hatch next car and will probably be not going past Stage 1 but want it to be quicker and plusher than my Stg 2+ ED30.

207 on the road currently and 5 declared SORN/off road, so 212 sold.

Guy I work with is buying one of those. I personally think he is mad.

he must be mad to be buying one new. 4 yrs old? could be an interesting second hand buy which is what I am thinking of as quite happy with Eddie for a good few years yet.

Sorry, when I said buying I meant leasing. I suppose I should hold judgement until I see one in the flesh, but looks-wise it's not doing it for me!

yeah does look a little odd, might be very colour dependent? how much is the lease per month per chance? guess will be £450-500 for one of them?

I've no idea to be honest, not even sure what the list price is.

Approx £630pm + VAT for BUSINESS users, add another 10% for personal users!

That's based on 3 + 35 payments with 10K pa Mileage, figures courtesy of my brother who works in the industry  :happy2:

I think the RS3 is about 10K more than Golf R so looking at those figures I would guess around £495 +VAT business

He's been led to believe it will cost less than £40k, so on par with RS3 pricing.
