Finally Found What I Have Been Looking For!


After around 3 years of looking I took delivery this week of an S3 Esprit :-)

I'm really hoping it is a good one, it does appear to be but I am no expert, bought it from UK Sports cars, it has been totally restored and in honesty it is as if it has been transported back from 1985 as it is almost like new but it has done 74,000 miles and has had 12 owners, so I am lucky No 13.

I must admit I was taken by it's condition and decided that if there are mechanical gremlins then everything is fixable, time will tell I guess but at the moment I am very happy :-)

I had the wheels diamond cut and painted before delivery but will look to add a set of Comps in the not too distant future.

Just hope it drives as good as it looks :-)

Gorgeous turbo in fantastic condition, reminds me of my old one only yours is in much better condition. I like the retrim quality, it looks very inviting.
