    Your thoughts about rear visibilty ?

    I would say its reasonable, I came from a Leon and would say the A3 has slightly worse visibility but I think this may just be me getting used to the dimensions of the car. New cars always feel more awkward at first while you get used to it, give it 3 months and you will be sliding it in gaps...

    1.2 engine - thoughts?

    Engines of today are not comparable to those of yesterday. 1.2 would once be considered a small engine on any car but with all the millions spent by car manufactures on efficiencies and technology 105bhp is more than sufficient for a run-arround. I went for the 1.8 because I was coming down...

    Aircon question with Dual Auto Climate control

    Could this just be because you are switching the driver modes, if I recall, some driver modes put the air con in Eco mode, I haven't noticed if the light says on in Eco but perhaps this is the difference.

    Rubber mats.

    Probably not, I say that because my 8v came with the wrong mats from the dealer who put the 8P ones in and hoped I wouldn't notice. The driver side just didn't fit the gap at all. Needless to say they changed them when I raised it but you will probably find the same problem.

    Changed forum style, now i cant change it back

    Embarresingly i cannot find it. Clearing cookies makes no difference, its a profile setting which i foolishly changed and now whenever i logon, even to a new device i get the mobile theme instead.

    Advice: xenon headlights or leather

    I think parking sensors are more usefull on some cars than others. The A3 has good visibility and is small enough to be reletively easy to put into any parking space but I had an A6 avant which is a monster with terrible side mirror visibility so sensors are a must.

    Advice: xenon headlights or leather

    Xenon's get my vote but your two options are very different.

    A bump up my side side 2 hours ago in my Corsa has made me nervous!

    Don't get me wrong, I have a foot in both camps. I have two children, 7 and 2. It gets a little easier but I find myself acting as a doorman to my 7 year old. We have 2 cars so i managed to justify a 3 door which does have the problem of huge door syndrome, but I just open the door let her climb...

    A bump up my side side 2 hours ago in my Corsa has made me nervous!

    This is exactly what I do, I will always find myself a nice exec car to park next to knowing he/she will be as careful as me when getting in and out.

    Opinions please

    I can't say I have had any personal experience but I have read several posts that suggest 6-7% is what people are getting off the list price, your offer is closer to 10% which isn't too shabby.
