Audi S3 buying guide

About the Audi S3

The used Audi S3 is the ultimate blend of function, class and performance, and you can pick from a range of models and trims that all bring their own features.   

You’ll be guaranteed great performance from the S3 as this model benefits from Audi’s tried-and-tested engineering. It feels great on the roads and is comfortable to sit in, with even the rear passengers getting a good amount of space.  

The S3 brings a luxury edge to what can be a practical car, especially with it being based on the already-impressive A3.

Sure, the convertible Cabriolet model might not be the best option for the school run, but even that model is spacious and comfortable.   

The S3 Sportback offers a 340-litre boot that can usually be extended to 1,220 litres if you need it, making it a good option for a luxury family car.

On the inside, you could get a 10.1-inch touchscreen display that includes 3D map display, detailed route information, and personal route assistance.   

The S3 Vorsprung model brings a real luxury touch. You’ll get all the equipment of the standard S3 model, but also extras like a black styling pack, Audi Matrix LED headlights and a panoramic sunroof.   

All of these features are dependent on the model you choose, but there are options for parking sensors, heated seats, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto up for grabs.

The virtual cockpit is also a nice touch for keeping informed on how the car is doing.   

Performance-wise, the S3 feels great with a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine that's turbocharged to perfection. It feels nippy on the roads and takes on even longer journeys with some relentless power, but feels just as elegant cruising around town centres. 

Similar models include the VW Golf R or Ford Focus ST.
