I own a Audi A3 and love it. The drive of this vehicle really make you realise that you are not in a less priced manufacturer. The gear box is smooth to use, the engine humms as you guide the acclerator onto the throttle. The comfortable seating position gives you the satisfaction that the car will make the distance to where ever your heart desires.
Even though I would go for the 1.9TDI 130bhp version the 1,8T is nothing to be snifted at. This car is very nifty and needs to be driven to be fully appreciated. Drive it and you will love it.
The Audi A3 is a very well built car and as excellent fuel economy and are still a good group in insurance for a presigage car. And a good small family car.

Advantages: Great build quality, lots of toys, pretty nippy and a name you can trust. Disadvantages: Fuel consumption, fault on stereo and uncomfortable on really long journeys.
