As of 2026 Q2, 3,489 AUDI RSQ3s remain registered in the UK — an increasingly uncommon sight on today's roads.

Rarer than 24% of the 2,315 UK car models we track.
Audi S and RS models are a range of high performance versions of certain car models of the German automotive company Audi AG. These cars primarily focus on enhanced "sport" performance. Production of Audi "S" cars began in 1990 with the S2 Coupé, whilst the first "RS" car appeared four years later with the Audi RS 2 Avant. Today's S and RS models are based on the A/e-tron GT/Q models with the same number (e.g. S4/RS 4 is based on the A4 or the RS Q3 based on the Q3), but the "Ur-S4" from 1991 to 1994 was based on the Audi 100/200 later named A6 and the first S2/RS2 generation from 1990 to 1995...
