Model Overview:

New in stock at Automotive Addiction—a true RS original. This Audi RS3 8V Sportback, powered by the revered DAZA engine, has been cared for by three Audi enthusiasts in its life so far. It stands today as a testament to Audi’s original vision for the 8V platform—an unmodified, completely standard example that captures the essence of the RS3 in its purest form.

From the moment it left the factory, this RS3 was destined to be extraordinary. Equipped with over £9,000 in factory-optional extras, it exudes sophistication and performance. Among its highlights are the Matrix LED Headlights, Supersport Seats, Carbon Interior Inlays, Bang & Olufsen Sound System, Extended Leather Interior Package, and the RS Sports Exhaust System—crafted to unleash the full symphony of the DAZA engine.

With fewer than 35,000 miles and presented in stunning Daytona Grey Pearl paintwork, this RS3 stands as a testament to integrity. Never involved in an accident and free from mileage blockers, its authenticity is fully verified and guaranteed. Every vehicle we sell undergoes our industry-leading, rigorous inspection process, designed to uncover every detail beyond what the eye can see.

You may be wondering, “Why is a pre-2019 RS3 so special?” Well, this model comes without the OPF restrictions, so the exhaust note is raw, aggressive, and unfiltered—offering an auditory experience unmatched in modern vehicles. The absence of OPF also reduces backpressure, sharpening throttle response and delivering a more visceral connection to the road. As many owners have embraced modifications, finding a bone-stock DAZA-powered RS3 is becoming a rarity. This car offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of unaltered performance heritage.

This RS3 is now undergoing our industry-leading, up-to-100-hour preparation process (RRP £1,200), meticulously crafted to satisfy even the most exacting collector. The journey of our 60-hour detailing process begins in our wash bay, including a full wheels-off decontamination wash. From there, the car enters our custom-built preparation booths where meticulous care is given to every fine detail, such as intricate areas like the backbox and disc centers. The interior is then rigorously cleaned, followed by multi-stage paint correction to achieve a flawless finish. Finally, the RS3 is showcased in our marketing booth, ready for you to admire and collect!

The Audi RS3 8V Sportback is more than a car—it’s an opportunity to own an authentic piece of Audi performance history. Contact us today to learn more about this remarkable vehicle or to secure it with a deposit.
