    Loosing two thirds of the original value over 6 years isn't unusual. Suppose it's still too dear, hence it's still for sale.

    Also, the seller is overstating the power: a 2001 S3 has 210bhp, not 225.

    seems a decent s3 is 11k sterling for a 01 5k vrt so they are about 20ks worth believe it or not!

    i doubt your friend traded an s3 man, if she did she was robbed :)

    Don't forget the S3 was IR£40,000+ when it came out.
