Getting a Audi S3 on finance

Thinking about a used Audi S3 on finance? It's a great choice if you're after a blend of performance and style. Let's break down the process.


Q: Why go for the Audi S3? A: The S3 offers speed, luxury, and Audi's renowned build quality. But, to be sure, it's always a good idea to check out reviews and maybe take one for a spin.

Q: Where's the best place to find one? A: Audi's official used car listings is a great starting point. But also have a look at online car sale platforms, local Audi dealerships, and classified ads.

Q: What about finance options? A:

  • PCP: You pay a deposit, then monthly instalments. End of term, you can buy the car, swap it, or just return it.
  • HP: Put down a deposit and then it's monthly payments until the end. Once you've paid in full, the S3 is all yours.
  • Leasing: Kind of like renting the car. You'll use it for a set time and then give it back.
  • Personal Loan: Borrow money, buy the S3, then repay in monthly chunks.

Q: How can I make sure I'm not overpaying? A: Shop around. Compare offers from Audi's finance deals and other lenders. The APR is a solid indicator of the overall cost.

Q: Does my credit score play a role? A: Yes, it does. A good score might get you better terms. You can check yours on sites like Experian or Equifax.

Q: How should I plan my budget? A: Think about what you can afford each month. Remember, if you can put down a larger deposit, your monthly payments might be lower.

Q: Anything to look out for in the contract? A: If you're looking at PCP or leasing, be mindful of mileage limits. Also, check for any fees if you decide to exit the contract early.

Q: Any room to negotiate? A: Always worth a try! See if you can haggle on the S3's price or the terms of your finance.


Do your homework and always read contracts thoroughly. Good luck, and hope you enjoy every drive in your Audi S3!

About the Audi S3

Audi has always been at the forefront of delivering performance-tuned vehicles that not only exude luxury but also dominate the road. The Audi S3, part of the marque's illustrious 'S' line-up, is a testament to this ethos. This compact sports saloon/sportback offers an exhilarating blend of performance, precision, and panache that few cars in its category can match.

Features and Specifications:

  • High-Performance Drivetrain: At the heart of the S3 lies a potent turbocharged engine. It delivers impressive horsepower, allowing the car to sprint from 0 to 60 mph in a matter of seconds. Paired with Audi's signature quattro all-wheel drive system, the S3 offers an exhilarating and controlled driving experience.

  • Dynamic Design: Building on the elegant lines of the A3, the S3 adds a touch of sportiness. Distinctive 'S' badging, a quad-exhaust setup, larger air intakes, and a more aggressive stance set the S3 apart from its more docile sibling.

  • Innovative Interiors: Inside, the S3 envelops passengers in luxury. Sports seats, high-quality materials, and the latest iteration of Audi's MMI infotainment system ensure comfort and connectivity on the move. The flat-bottomed sports steering wheel and 'S' branded gear lever are subtle nods to the car's performance pedigree.

  • Adaptive Dynamics: The S3 benefits from a sports suspension setup, providing it with agility around corners while retaining ride comfort. Drivers can further customize their experience with the Audi Drive Select system, tweaking throttle response, steering weight, and more.

  • Safety and Assistance Systems: While performance is its mantra, safety isn't overlooked. The S3 is equipped with a plethora of safety features, including lane assist, adaptive cruise control, and a suite of airbags. Advanced braking systems and electronic stability control ensure the car's immense power is always in check.

Conclusion:

For those seeking a compact car without wanting to compromise on performance, the Audi S3 emerges as a compelling choice. It beautifully marries the practicality of a compact vehicle with the heart-pounding performance synonymous with Audi's 'S' range. The result is a car that can be a comfortable cruiser one minute and a track day thrill the next. It's this versatility, combined with the luxury and tech Audi is known for, that makes the S3 a standout in its segment.
