I still don't see why you keep wandering around saying exactly WHY you have sold the S1. You keep saying that you've "given up" on it, and that you can't fix it for some unknown reason. And then later in the video it's that you have gotten an offer that is too good to say no to..? So which is it?

I dunno, if you are not driving A45 because it is a money drain, I’d cut my losses and get rid of it. You have already a ”money sucker” which is the daily racer Golf R, and then you have the pet project in S3. I totally agree on selling S1, especially if you got a good offer for it. What you need is a daily which doesn’t drain money (aka. is reliable) and thus in my opinion cannot be brand new. So something like previous gen Golf GTI, Golf R, S3 and RS3 come to my mind due to DSG, familiar engines and general ease of use. However, if manual is fine I’d suggest Honda Civic Type R FK2. Prices are stabilized, Hondas in general reliable and that car is a pleasure to drive (fast). Not the most comfortable car, although for the driver seats are so good that it does not matter IMO. People will either hate it or love it due to its looks, and it is much more ”brutal” feeling car than any VAG-car ever is or has been. Keep up with the good content! Keenly waiting what is the next daily.

As a fellow (26year old) A45s owner, sell it. these cars will lose a ton of value overtime.... Bought mine new and lost an insane amount on it after 15k miles. Either enjoy it or sell it, not worth the financial headaches! None the less, lovely content

I have one and i haven't had a car that I have enjoyed so much. I bought it with 12k miles on it and it's done a reasonable amount of depreciation , hopefully it won't be a too big amount of depreciation in the next 3years . What car can you buy that doesn't depreciate that's equal to an a45s? Hopefully when it gets discontinued next year it will keep residuals higher!
