...and just over 500 miles)

Very little makes me smile these day's but this little beauty does!

An absolutely perfect 'city car'. Ideal for buzzing around MK and its environs.

Lovely to look at and offers an extremely comfortable driving position - for someone who likes to think they're still 6' tall - i.e. bags of space above my head, but perhaps a little tight for any adults sitting in the rear?

Very well spec'd in the Premium trim. Have yet to deploy Cruise Control and Limiter as don't get much opportunity and when I do I forget they're available!

I can't really tell you anything about (accurate) fuel economy as I've never been that obsessed about that aspect. I'm clearly not doing journeys long enough to get any real idea. Max journey mileage in any one direction so far has only been 28.

It really is a pleasure to drive, so much so that I only now ever use the A3 at weekends or if I'm doing 100-miles somewhere midweek in one hit. Feels very precise when you point & steer it. Smooth gearchanges and adequate acceleration as/when required.

So, yes, at the moment I can't speak highly enough of it as a 'fit for purpose' purchase...
