Why I love my A3

Advantages: lots of comfort and room!!
Disadvantages: Almost all small comforts are extra :(

I love this car. . well worth the money. . it drives so smooth and grips the road excellently, especially with the recent heavy snowfall. I get looks when the car has just been washed I love it The only drawbacks are things such as an temparature gauge and TRIP computer are all extras whereas my old car a 2001 Clio had all of that as standard. It has nice features such as when the key is taken out of the ignition to leave the car the internal ...
...belongings before you leave the car and the light only switches off when you lock the car perfect at night!!! Also the central locking is very powerful and is great at night or day in a busyy car park to find you car!! Inside is very stylish and there is plenty of room in the car front and rear. I also only fill my tank up once a month for around £40 whereas my clio would be twice a month at £30 per time! Very economical and sooooo quite once ...

Review of Audi A3 1.9 TDI

German technology at it's best in a compact car

Advantages: Great looks, excellent road handling, reliability
Disadvantages: Not very soundproof, expensive, and other minor issues

...who are considering buying an Audi A3 1.6 Special Edition (SE) in the future. A little explanation The difference between Special Edition and standard A3 is that the former comes with 16” alloy wheels, ESP (about it later), air conditioning and is a 3-door car. If you like this car but would prefer a 5-door version, then you will need to look for Audi A3 Sportback 1.6 SE. I remember quite clearly a school trip to France about ten years ...
...visiting my parents I entered Audi website to see what cars they had on offer, not really thinking seriously about this, but I noticed there was one specific car I liked in a dealership close to my parents’ place. We all went to see the car, spent about 2 hours viewing it from all angles, checking specs and interior. I was getting excited like a child who just wanted to jump up and down with joy, just by looking at it. After a short test drive around ...

Review of Audi A3 1.6

Public School Hooligan

Advantages: Rocketship quick
Disadvantages: Licence eater

...Steer” write-up on the new Audi A3 3.2 Quattro in Top Gear Magazine, thought “Ooh, that looks like a little belter”, and decided to give my long suffering Audi salesman a ring to see if I could blag a test-drive in one. Fair do’s, the lad come up trumps and got me one for the day. Result! Have you seen the new A3 yet? No? Well, you may have and just not have noticed. It’s very similar to the old one really although to ...
...variant in each of the Audi models gets an “S” (and sometimes even an “R”) in its name to warn the unwary. Hence we have had the S3, S4, S6, S8 and the completely barking RS4 and RS6 models. However this little chap has to make do wi’ nowt. You’d think that 250ps in a little hatchback would warrant something, but no. In keeping with the low-key theme, there are no aggressive lumps, bumps, spoilers or air dams to ...

Review of Audi A3 3.2 quattro

Audi A3 blows away Golf and 1 Series

Advantages: Super looks, great build quality
Disadvantages: Audi service..AVIOD

Audi is a german company. I could leave it there, but audi currently i believe lead the german luxury car market, the A3's competitors are the VW Golf and the BMW 1 series, this mercedes currently not offering a sporty hatchback. The golf firstly won't give you the same luxury that the A3 will which justifies it being £6000 cheaper, and the 1 series will give you the luxury at a slightly most expensive price and without the sporty looks of the A3. ...
...that make up the great audi package. The sportback being the 5-door version is exteremeley spacious im 6ft tall and i would get into the back seat with no problems with a 6ft driver in front! and compfort is no afterthought you sink into the seats and feel very secure and in control. The boot aswell is incredibly spacious i plpay cricket and honesly i could easily get 4 cricket bags in with no problem, for those who don't know each one was around ...

Review of Audi A3 Sportback 2.0 TDI

Excellent car, AUDI A3 head and shoulders over the rest

Advantages: Fast, elegant, superb to drive, top quality
Disadvantages: boring interior, very hard seats

...the best has been my Audi A3, I can say with authority that it is a far better car than 9/10 other brands of car. It's as simple as that. Every component seem to be of the highest quality, you can tell it's an Audi mainly by its superb braking and its perfect handling. Consumption is high-ish, although that is to be expected from a car that is quite heavy, and it's very good when compared to cars of similar class to it. The low pints, for me at ...
...might as well be in a Ford, and also how hard and, compared to other cars, uncomfortable the seats are, although they look well made and of good materials. Apart from that, I have to say that attention to detail is everywhere, the electric sunroof in particular is something amazing in this car. To summarise, I would never look at this car as a status symbol, it is a necessity for someone who needs a really good and reliable car, apart from being ...
