2017 AUDI A3

Finished in striking Mythos Black Metallic, this 2017 Audi RS3 8V Saloon has covered just 22,600 miles and has had only two previous Audi RS enthusiasts owners throughout its life. Now offered for sale on behalf of a long-standing Automotive Addiction client, this RS3 has been known to us since 2020, allowing us to provide a fully documented overview of its ownership, servicing, and carefully selected upgrades.

This is an exceptional example of the RS3 8V – hosting over £4,400 worth of factory optional extras and tasteful modifications and meticulously maintained to a high enthusiast standard.

Powered by the highly sought-after DAZA engine with its robust aluminium block and non-OPF configuration, this RS3 features MRC Tuning Stage 2 ECU and TCU calibrations, delivering an exhilarating 510PS. These performance enhancements are backed by over £8,400 in premium upgrades, including a Wagner EVO 3 intercooler, Wagner downpipe, and a Forge Motorsport intake system paired with a matching turbo elbow. The result is a significantly sharpened driving experience, with faster throttle response, optimized airflow, and enhanced power delivery across the entire rev range.

Visually, it has been subtly transformed to match its enhanced performance credentials. A combination of Racingline Sport Lowering Springs, H&R wheel spacers, and a Horsch carbon front splitter gives the car a lower, wider and more assertive stance. The aesthetic is completed by a set of satin silver 20-inch OZ Racing Ultraleggera HLT wheels, offering a lightweight, motorsport-inspired contrast to the deep black paintwork.

Inside, the RS3 maintains Audi’s renowned balance of performance and luxury. Electrically adjustable front Super Sport seats are finished in Fine Nappa Leather with Rock Grey contrast stitching, featuring four-way electric lumbar support for optimal long-distance comfort. The extended interior leather pack further elevates the cabin, blending premium materials with a sharp, purposeful design that mirrors the exterior’s aggressive character.

This Audi RS3 8V Saloon will be subjected to Automotive Addiction’s signature preparation process, where it will be meticulously detailed by our in-house professional detailers with a decade of experience in our bespoke detailing studio adding our difference to this Audi RS3 prior to sale. This includes treatments to the Paintwork, Undercarriage, Wheels, Brakes, Glass and Interior (£1,200 worth of detailing prior to sale).
