Just got an S3

[guytom]

Hello,

I picked up my Black '02 Audi S3 225bhp on Monday after trading in my '99 Lotus Elise.

It has Sat Nav, Black heated Recaro seats, reverse sensors, and the list goes on.

Am really impressed with it, obviously the comfort and equipment levels are great compared to the Lotus but I was really surprised at how quick it is!! I thought it might just be quick or nippy but it really flies. I will miss the top off focused driving experience of the Elise but the S3 is really not the come down I thought it might be.

Any way rather than continue to preach to the converted I just have one quick question:

How do you connect an iPod to the stereo system, I'm not sure what unit I have but it has the built in factory Sat Nav system, is there any port I can just hook up to or is it a bit more involved than that.

Any help would be gratefully received.

Oh and I'm based in Coventry area so does anyone know a good specialist I can use to do my servicing etc, or do the Audi dealers have a good rep.

I know from my Lotus days that a good independant specialist is worth their weight in gold.


Thanks in advance, no doubt I'll have lots of questions during my ownership.

Just had to look outside to make sure you hadn't nicked mine there!

Congratulations, great car. Get yourself booked in for a remap if you don't have one already and sign up at www.audi-sport.net.

Thank you both.

I'd be interested in hearing more about how the two cars compare as I've been thinking about swapping to an Elise for a while. The S3 is a great car but you can do some silly speeds without really noticing and I'd like something that's fun a lower speeds.

Welcome, I'd also like to know more about the move as I'm planning on selling my S3 and going for something RWD and more fun, I know I'm going to miss the S3 though especially as the weather gets worse.

Nice. I had a 111R and now an S3 too. Not bad are they.
