Ive now ran this A3 from new for 1 year and clocked up 18000 enjoyable miles.
Popped it into the dealer this morning and drove away an A4 SLine Saloon courtesy car. Im guessing it was a 2.0l, very smart looking with B&O Sound system.
The A4 made me appreciate how good the the A3 is. The A4...

I was parked up the other day, an A1 parked along side, both cars Amalfi White.

Ive had the car a week now, MPG is a mix of good and bad.
My first run which was a good 200mile returned 67mpg if I remember correctly.
