1.4 TFSI S line 125 S tronic Auto 5dr

As Good as Expected

After 7 months ownership and only about 2000 miles of mostly urban driving we are very satisfied with overall quality, performance and comfort. The criteria for changing from an older A3 was petrol, automatic, metallic grey preferably and 'S' line with the flat bottom steering wheel and this fitted the bill. Our previous A3 was a also automatic and 2.0L and I was hesitant about whether the performance would be suitable with the smaller engine. On all fronts this car is vastly superior to the old one even the comfort with S line 18" wheels and lowered suspension is fine.
The only critcism we have is the brakes are extremely sensitive and the slightest heavy footedness causes all occupants discomfort. It has been looked at and declared to be 'perfect' for a modern car and something we need to get used to.
Our previous cars have been mostly BMW, series 1 and Z3, Z4 and the Audi may just edge on BMW for quality and refinement.
Using the old adage of 'would you buy another one? the answer is yes we would.
