My FINAL Purchase Before COVID-19! HIGH MILEAGE Audi S3! 

Hope everyone’s ok 🙏🏼

One thing I've realised with this lockdown is that I really hate my job and the company I work for. The problem is I will return to that same job after all this. 😵

Yes that's a facelift, the lights are all one unit. The older ones had two seperate lights for the indicators and the lights.

"Don't worry I am wiping my arse... So yh I've kinda gone of track" haha

Another great video mate.to be honest I have never been that keen on car dealers but you are one of the most genuine ,funny and likeable blokes I can see why people buy from you , I too run my own business fitting windows so I know how hard it is ,good luck mate ,Paul

Great advice in the video man, not only do you upload great content regularly but you also inspire a lot of people including myself, respect to you Calvin👊🏼

You make me smile .Good luck with the business I’m sure you’ll be ok😁👍🏼

Nice car Calvin my friend had one of these stay safe mate your content helps pass some time 😎

I’m buying some drums now & I’ll tell my mrs it was Calvin’s idea........she’ll love you 😂😂😂

Lots of wise words in this video - well done! Hope you are back up and running ASAP without too much lasting damage. Thanks for the videos👌👍

Calvins car diary is honest, and makes great tv, factual and fun, and Calvin is a natural! And a pleasure to watch. Look forward to Sunday’s and Wednesday now!

Dont usually reply to videos but your comments actually lifted me and inspired me to rethink my life!👍

My S3 is on 162K and its running mint. Cars bullet proof and a blast on backroads when you've got some proper suspension on it!

Type of guy we need during this pandemic! Remains positive! Good work Calvin!

Looks to be a facelift model, pre facelift have split headlights (separate indicators) also have a different s3 badges including different badge on the gauge cluster. The centre console is also different on the pre facelift Hope this helps

Great purchase mate , I bought a shitbox A4 Avant 2.5tdi 2 yrs ago for 600 notes from gumtree. It had 235000 miles on it and now has 257400 miles and I had mapped and recently added propane injection and it just won't die! 👌

Thank you for your videos. Hope to see you up and running soon. You always say you make your money when you buy something and never a truer word was said. Stay safe and we will be watching you on the other side.

Im convinced I was looking at this car on auto trader last year. Think it was on there for a month or 2. Just got myself an s3 mk1. Finally found the spec I was holding out for...love it!

Please keep your videos coming, cars or no cars, you talks are very inspirational and the people love it

Good video, really wanting to buy one of these as a project car. Love the videos mate, keep em coming!

We all know this wasn’t filmed before corona virus lockdown

Glad you kept the grind lad

Great content and your positivity is addictive. Thanks man !

I admire your positive vibes. Thanks for producing great videos. Stay safe buddy 💙

This is a really good positive one to always look back at mate 😃👍

Godbless you and yours Calvin 🙏🏻 Stay Strong stay safe Everyone.

I love how positive Calvin is. Spreading positivity across the community is the best thing people can do right now.

Loving the content through these hard times calv. I've currently got 5 weeks off work and what best way to keep occupied by watching your videos keep up the good work mate. And stay safe 🙏

wow cal thank you so much! ur words about the new future really have cheered me up, love!

I had one of these bad boys! Loved that car so much!

Hope you got some bog roll and didn’t have to resort to wiping with pound notes 😂 great positivity as always. Take care!

Nice positive message as always, strange times ahead for us all. Good pal of mine has recently bought the same year S3 and he's showing bit some well needed love, but can't wait to have a play against my 350z 💪

another great video, love how you manage to get across a very serious message to us all whilst staying true to your petrol head nature. also yes it is a time for uncertainty for us all but you are definitely who is what I would call a ‘grafter’ and on the other side of this I think you are going to be just fine.. keep up the good content pal and stay safe ...

I had one of these back in the day, never missed a beat and took a beating on a day to day basis! Fantastic little cars. Sold it on with over 165k on the clock and it felt great.

Another good video, great to see someone with so much positivity and enthusiasm for what they do

Nice car 👍 all the s3 shapes are so good would love to have one!

I quite like that shape of S3, someone near to where I used to live has one in red, and it looks great. The stance looks just right (I think his was lowered) and it made a great turbo noise 👍

you and the wiping your arse speech... cracked me up. seem like a good guy mate. hope I can do a deal with you soon... maybe swap this for my highly tuned faboa VRS with low milage

Excellent content again Calvin. Hope the world goes back to normal as soon as possible. Would love that S3 for a little weekend fun 😜

Good little car, future classic, worth money to a proper fan, Take care Calvin and your family mate

Best wishes Calvin, hope everything works out for you. Still missing the sound of the RS6

Thanks for ur positive attitude fella. Wish u all the best and when we're out of the dark period, success.

Wishing you all the best Calvin, stay strong and I hope you get the government help for businesses, I have enjoyed the series on your channel and you have come into your own character since your regular features with Ricky. BINCA will bounce back stronger!!

Hi Calvin great video I'm self employed heating engineer no work at the moment so i know how you feel but i am catching up on all those jobs around the house at the moment i am cleaning out the garage didn't realise i had so much stuff thanks Kevin

Love these! what would you say is the main thing to watch out for on them, common issues? All the best man.

Love your positive message mate. Stay safe and healthy . We will weather this storm and learn to appreciate our lives more. Looking forward to future videos whenever it may be. 😀

You’re a very good guy Calvin. You are positive, talk sense and deserve to thrive. Keep safe and well and all the very best to you and yours.

Great video Calvin, some great inspirational messages !

Keep your head up mate, and keep putting great content out 👍🏻

Hope you and your family are food calvain it’s a tough time for everyone especially self employed people. Stay safe everyone 🤟🏽

Again, great job Calvin 👍. Nice mix of content 😁

Think your outlook on life for a young man is inspiring. You deserve to bounce back strongly in the near future. Good luck.

Keep safe man I enjoy watching your videos hope to see you after lockdown

Love your videos mate, love the s3 8l absolutely brilliant

A project I also had in mind ! Nice one bro !!

He’s so cute when he gets side tracked hahah love the vids man keep it up 👍

Hi mate only just started watching your channel. Love the audi s3. Great little video mate. Ive currently got an audi a3 1.9tdi sport 6 speed on a 51 plate. Clutch gone so currently on the stands but it's only done 117 k genuine mileage. It's got a pd130 engine and the car is crystal blue aswell. Any tips about it? Stay safe mate keep the vids coming wen it's all normal

i actually like the personal life and business parts of this video. Shows the reality of what having a business is really like and what goes into it. (y)

Been looking to buy one of these once the lockdown and works gone back to normal

I remember these coming out in Germany when I was in the Army. I thought the interior was bloody stunning and I really wanted one. Take care and stay safe mate

Look forward to all these vids and even how positive u always are even in this shit storm of a situation! Currently looking at my 2017 facelift S3 out the window and all I can do I do the shopping in it... If we get out of this alive get urself in any Audi and go to the “Audi in the park” meet, would be great to see u in person.

Yasss Calvin great video once again 👊🏼

Yur a bloody legend yu do everything and every review on everything and there all in detail although I'm a teen I always wanted to get into business and iv always liked cars and this is just that

I do like Audi's from that era. The interiors wear well and are a nice place to be.

Mate 1500 away from 100k Subs, nice one. I like the 3 door Audi S3 wish we had those in the US, 160k isn't a problem if its been maintained. Decent detail, alignment & corner balance i'd drive the snot out of it.

Just bought myself a y reg S3 too can't wait till this Corona is over so I can get it sorted and on the road

Positive vibes Calvin - keep doing your thing mate.

Been waiting to get back into repairing salvage cars for a long time, but to focused on the day job, as you say use the time for focus, new copart account set up and first bids in #onit

Great video mate, always liked these motors! Stay safe

Pleased you cover the toilet roll situation up Calvin, I was worried about how you may be wiping your ass 😂😂😂

Yes its a facelift version ,bam engine code is on the engine ,updated badges and the front headlights is one whole unit

Is it an bam engine Calvin? I had a 51 plate in ming blue and that was a facelift and sunroof edition but only an amk 210 bhp engine.

great content as usual Calvin keep safe we will all get through this 👍😎

My mate has one almost identical, same colour & year. His has done about 102,000miles, and is doing about 280bhp, it's quite nippy.

Yo Cal, All The way from South Africa- Hope all well that side and great channel! Small scenario - I currently have a little b16a Vtec Civic (airbag Spec) Considering swoping up for a s3 (as in your). Would you reckon it would be a good trade. Not to familiar with 5V motor. Cheers.

Absolutely great videos just keep it up 😁

It’s a pre facelift with a set of newer facelift lights. Bootlid bar is a big giveaway. Newer ones have no key hole

I’ve been searching for a 2012 a4 avant black edition in white for weeks.. finally found one but it’s an hour and a half away from me and we’re in lockdown 😭😭

@10:11... calvin your certified man!! Good morals, knowledge and wise words for everyone! Keep up the good work matey! You'll soon blow on RU-vid too, trust me!! 👍

Same as my s3. Got a red one. Still going strong at 202k and has a few mods👌 the one you have is deffo a facelift with the BAM225 engine 👍

Really enjoying your videos Calvin. You are very eloquent but in a Del boy sort of way and I mean that as a compliment. Very sensible advice regarding CV, If we all play the game I am sure things will get back to normal sooner rather than later.

Another great video Calvin Stay safe

Hi Calvin, I own a barber shop (No.1 Barbers) just down the road from you near Knight Racer. We are temporarily closed due to corona so I have been spending my time experimenting with my first few videos and I was wondering what editing packages you use and are they exclusive to Mac. Thanks in advance. Stay Safe

Hope you and your family are well Calvin you have built a good business up

You'll pull through Calvin, you are onit! Hope you and the fam are ok stay blessed 🙏

I thought some of the early face lifts still came with the 210bhp engine. Wasnt the 225 fitted from around 51 reg?

Awesome. I've got a 2001 s3 in black just reached 107k miles

Which sims are you running on your simulator? I have a motion one, it's great when you can't drive proper!

its a nice car for its age, good purchase calvin 🔥

Keep em coming calv and that x6 is mint 👍

Nice video Calvin, you’d make a very good motivational speaker. Take care and God bless mate to you and your family

S3 facelift Calvin headlights are one peice rear lights are different the radio is higher up in the facelift yeah sunroof is a extra factory order armrest is extra and leather is also someone has also fitted upgraded boooost pipes be a nice little project to tart up but keep standard as their slowly creeping up in value they will be a defo future classic that we all wish we had kept cos they will zoom up to double figures 10k upwards keep up the good work 👍not all facelifts are 225bhp only bam engine code are amk are 210bhp

So close to the 100k Calvin! A few more days and you will hit it, and well deserved,

Seen it on autotrader haha same reg n everything I checked. What do you reckon 0-60 would be after remap?

Like you mate I closed my business after the announcement, it’s stressful as hell but we will all get through this and our businesses will continue and grow 👍

These are lovely,you shouldn’t have a problem shifting that on if it’s been looked after.

160k is not massive providing the car has been looked after , I have stripped engines with only 80k on them and they were trashed. I have stripped 152k engines with full service history and they still have cross hatching on the cylinder bores. All down to how they are driven and looked after mate

One of my mates brought this had a water pump leak radio don't work fuel pipe was leaking and a mouse nest in the boot by drivers back light

Stay positive and all the best with your business when things unlock.

What about doing a video on that old 8 series ? Hope you got the bog roll situation sorted 👌
