Buying an Audi A3 - 125PS or 150PS?
I am thinking of buying a new Audi A3, with the seven-speed s tronic auto box, but cannot decide between 125 or 150p engine. Which would you recommend?

The 150ACT. It's a brilliant engine. Lots of torquer. Very smooth. And shuts off a couple of cylinders while cruising for better economy. However, you won;pt find me recommending an s-tronic or DSG. Manual much better.
