2023 Audi RS3 8Y Sportback (VORSPRUNG) 2.5TFSI Quattro S-Tronic 400PS | Audi Exclusive Sonoma Green | VAT-QUALIFYING | Brand NEW

JUST COME INTO STOCK - With just 44 miles on the clock, this jaw-dropping Audi-Exclusive Sonoma Green 2023 RS3 is offered as a brand-new delivery mileage example.

Drenched in a flawless coat of Audi’s Sonoma Green Metallic (which first debuted on the 2018 Audi RS4 B9) – this Audi-Exclusive Paint Finish was a £2,600 option and was a 2.5 year wait from order to delivery by Audi U.K. This is potentially THE-ONLY RS3 8Y in the U.K in this paint finish. A sophisticated hue that expresses individuality and elegance.

Delivered to us absolutely factory fresh, complete with its white transportation protection from the German Audi factory. This RS3 has NEVER been driven on the road and is offered to you as a truly brand-new example.

The transportation protection will be removed by us as Professional Detailers with care, followed by an additional 40 hours of meticulous preparation from our in-house professional detailers including multi-stage paint correction to ensure the unparalleled finish that comes as standard with all vehicles offered by Automotive Addiction.

At present, you cannot order an 8Y RS3 Sportback directly from the factory! Order books are officially closed for the foreseeable future due to all factory allocations being fulfilled, so our stocked and road-ready model means you can jump the queue and get behind the wheel of this incredible brand-new sportback without the wait, while still benefitting from a comprehensive manufacturer’s warranty until July 2026.

VAT-Qualifying - meaning that business or export customers can take advantage of the ability to reclaim the VAT, reducing the cost by a massive £12,600.

As a much sought-after Vorsprung model it comes equipped with the highly coveted panoramic glass sunroof, RS heads-up display, RS Adaptive suspension, RS Sports exhaust, 174mph top speed increase, power tailgate, electrically adjustable supersport seats with memory function, wireless phone charging, adaptive cruise control and cruise assist, a premium 15-speaker Bang & Olufsen 3D sounds system with subwoofer for the ultimate in sonic purity and features the latest Audi Digital Matrix LED headlights. The full specification can be found on our website.

Please watch our walkaround video, which includes more information on this RS3’s highlight features. Contact us without delay if you wish to discuss this vehicle or secure it with a deposit.
