Thanks to all for the contributions and answering my question, particularly John for the clear explanation. DaveW I've just ordered your book on Amazon.

Mine is the S3 3.0 V6 Roadster

3.7 is the 3.7 V6 model Roadster it shouldn't be classed as part of the 3.0 series iteration IMHO

Quite right - too many differences, Engine, GBox, Non-galv chassis, dash, gauges....

It still says Roadster on it, though.. And it has a galvanised chassis..

And no engine ground clearance issues..!!
