Audi A3

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

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 ...

Review of Audi A3 1.8 T

98 Audi A3 1.8 Sport.

Advantages: Reknowned build quality and reliability, sporty handling.
Disadvantages: It's the wife's not mine.

The hunt for the Audi A3 we now own began after we decided the escalating petrol prices were no longer for us. Running a 2.6 V6 tends to get expensive at todays prices. The only replacement to my wifes exceptionally well behaved V6 Vectra had to be an Audi A3. Something small and fun for the adults to drive, but also well behaved, safe and with an air of prestige about it for when the kids are on board. We picked up an 98 (R), one owner, 90k mile ...
...seats right through to the Audi concert music system along with it's multi disc changer. Materials are excellent and feel solid to touch. Doors "thud" closed reassuringly behind you. And although covering 90k miles our interior still looks factory fresh. What other small hatch with those miles could offer such outstanding build quality and materials. This car really is a true testament to German engineering and their pursuit of uncluttered, stylish ...

Review of Audi A3 1.8

Audi A3 1.8 T Quattro

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.

...would have to say the audi is a good car that I would definately reccomend to buy as long as your not doing long commutes in it! Very fun to drive and a beautiful cabin to sit in combined with the 4 wheel drive system and brilliant build quality you really can't go far wrong with this car. ...
