Xenon headlights produce light that is much closer to daylight and about twice as much as comparable halogen bulbs, and make night driving, particularly in poor weather, safer and less tiring for your eyes. Xenon headlights are standard on the Audi S3 Cabriolet.

The optional adaptive lights swivel in the headlamp cluster. When turning, they follow the steering wheel and cast a wider angle of illumination so you can see round the bend more clearly at night.

At the rear, the Audi S3 Cabriolet's lightweight LED tail lights offer greater visibility, penetration and an overall safer driving experience, as well as lasting longer than conventional halogen bulbs. Rear LEDs are available with Xenon headlights only.

Audi lane assist helps the driver to stay in lane alerting them if they move off.

Audi lane assist detects lane markings by means of a camera on the front of the vehicle. The system is operational as soon as the camera detects road markings on both sides of the vehicle's lane.

If the vehicle starts to drift towards one of the detected lane markings, vibrations in the steering wheel warn the driver the vehicle is moving out of its lane. No warning is given if the driver is indicating with the turn signal.

The system is designed for driving on motorways and main roads, and works at speeds above approx. 60 km/h. Audi lane assist does not actively intervene in the driving situation.

New life-long MOT test offer applies to privately owned Audis of any age or model when the cam belt is replaced

  • Complimentary MOT tests (usual price of £49.99) for the life of any Audi model where the cam belt is replaced by an Audi Centre or Authorised Audi Repairer
  • Offer is fully transferable to subsequent owners for the life of the vehicle
  • All privately owned Audi models of any age are eligible
  • Cam belt replacement fixed at £449 for engines of up to 2.0-litres, and £599 for higher capacity units (excluding RS models)

As part of its far-reaching initiative to de-stress the ownership experience as fully as possible, Audi UK is eliminating MOT costs for Audi drivers who entrust a cam belt replacement to participating Audi Centres and Authorised Repairers across the country.

Many Audi Centres are now offering free MOT testing for the life of the vehicle for any Audi model which undergoes a cam belt replacement by Audi approved technicians, potentially saving customers hundreds of pounds by bypassing the usual £49.99 MOT test fee. The offer is fully transferable to subsequent owners, who can also take advantage of free MOTs at participating Audi Centres at any point in the vehicle’s life.

Audi UK recommends changing the cam belt once the mileage specified in the Audi service schedule is reached or at every five-year interval, whichever comes first. One of the hardest-working components in the engine, the toothed rubber belt can deteriorate over time, ultimately leading to cracks, rips and tears, and in the worst case scenario, it can snap whilst the car is running. Major engine damage can result which can be extremely expensive and time-consuming to remedy.

Fortunately, replacement is a simple process that can be booked at any Audi Centre in the UK. For Audi models up to 2.0-litres in engine size, a fixed price cam belt replacement costs £449, increasing to £599 for engines over 2.0-litres (excluding RS models).

While booking, customers also have the option to specify a courtesy car and to benefit from the Audi Cam video-based diagnostic service, through which Audi technicians can send customers video footage of any other problems that are identified whilst their car is being worked on.

Exacting standards
During every Audi cam belt replacement, the engine is disassembled and the belt itself replaced along with the cam belt tensioner. Naturally, only genuine Audi parts are used, and once reassembly is complete, each vehicle is given a thorough road test before the job is recorded in the service book.

The benefit of unparalleled specialist Audi knowledge and the reassurance of genuine Audi parts can also be enjoyed at a fixed price for many other items on the maintenance menu, including major and interim servicing. These are just some of the added value features that combine to make 'The Audi Difference'.

The Audi Difference refers to the fundamental practices and services which set Audi Centres apart. In addition to the convenience of Audi cam video diagnosis, other advantages include the availability of a free vehicle health check conducted with the benefit of the very latest Audi software updates whenever required, the option of car collection and return for service and maintenance jobs and on-site tyre sales and fitting.

Customers wishing to take up the cam belt replacement and lifetime MOT offer can find out more at their local Centre, or by visitingwww.audi.co.uk/owners-area/servicing-maintenance-mot/mot.html

Mighty twin-turbo V8 engine retains its rightful place at the heart of the new-look RS 7 Sportback but is now even more efficient

  • New headlights and design details for a dynamic five-door coupé
  • 4.0 TFSI with 560 PS and efficient CoD technology
  • Four per cent reduction in C02 emissions to 221g/km
  • Fuel consumption improves by three per cent to 29.7mpg combined
  • Board Member for Development Prof. Dr. Ulrich Hackenberg: "Audi RS 7 Sportback is an outstanding piece of sports equipment"

The RS 7 Sportback – the most potent five-door coupé in the Audi range - now looks even sharper and performs even more efficiently, yet no less formidably. The new generation RS 7 Sportback, which becomes available to order in the UK later this summer ahead of first deliveries in late 2014, combines subtle styling enhancements with new LED lighting, upgraded infotainment features and revisions to the 560 PS V8 TFSI powerplant which enable it to comply with new EU6 emissions regulations.

“The Audi RS 7 Sportback confirms the reputation of the RS models as the superior, top athletes of our brand,” states Prof. Dr. Ulrich Hackenberg, Member of the Board of Management for Technical Development of AUDI AG. “The combination of a powerful four litre V8 engine with Cylinder on Demand technology, quattro drive and intelligent lightweight design makes the RS 7 Sportback an outstanding piece of sports equipment for any fan of dynamic and yet efficient driving.”

Even at first glance, the Audi RS 7 Sportback reveals its dynamic character – the long bonnet, flowing C pillars and the sharply sloping rear end form an aesthetic overall impression. New design details add striking touches. They include the Singleframe grille with the black honeycomb typical of RS models, with the corners now even sharper and more distinctive. Three optional packages – matt aluminium, gloss black and carbon – make the look of the RS 7 Sportback even more distinctive. Subtle modifications have also been made to the bumper, with its distinctive air inlets. The headlights, also adapted to the new singleframe grille, now feature LED technology as standard. Matrix LED technology is available for the first time on the RS 7 Sportback, with integrated dynamic turn signals on the front and rear. The tail lights also have a new interior design. New to the paint palette are the colours Floret silver, metallic; Glacier white, metallic; Mythos black, metallic and Sepang blue, pearl effect.

In the elegant black interior, dominated by the RS sport seats, the designers have made judicious changes to the instrument cluster, including the air outlet controls of the vent nozzles, the shift paddles behind the steering wheel and the quattro emblem on the instrument panel. The standard MMI navigation plus with MMI touch now uses the modular infotainment platform of the latest generation; its highlight is an efficient graphics processor from Audi partner, Nvidia.

The EU6-compliant 4.0 TFSI engine in the revised Audi RS 7 Sportback provides the same prodigious 560 PS, with a constant 700 Nm (516.3 lb ft) of torque at engine speeds between 1,750 and 5,500 rpm. The engine catapults the five door coupé from 0 to 62mph in 3.9 seconds; the optional dynamics packages allow top speeds of 174mph and 189mph respectively. On a combined cycle however, the resonant V8 twin turbo returns up to 29.7mpg, and emits 221 grams of CO2 per km. A key factor in this efficiency is the Cylinder on Demand (CoD) system, which can shut down four cylinders during partial load operation.

An eight speed tiptronic transmission tuned for optimum performance also features a tall final gear to contribute to fuel efficiency. The might of the V8 engine is harnessed by the quattro permanent all wheel drive system and used to best effect by the standard Sports differential, which apportions torque in precisely measured quantities between the rear wheels according to driving conditions.

RS adaptive air suspension is fitted as standard, together with adaptive damping, and is controlled via the Audi drive select driving dynamics system. Audi offers the tauter RS sport suspension plus with Dynamic Ride Control (DRC) as an alternative. A further option is dynamic steering, which continuously varies the steering ratio for greater agility.

The revised Audi RS 7 Sportback is fitted with 20 inch forged lightweight alloy wheels as a standard. Optional 21 inch cast aluminium wheels are available in three different colours. The four internally ventilated brake discs have a weight saving wave design. Alternatively carbon fibre-ceramic discs are available as an option. Electronic Stabilisation Control (ESC) features a Sport mode that can be deactivated altogether if required.
