Good looking car, shame about the oil consumption

Now having had the car for 3 1/2 years the oil consumption has shot to approx. 1 litre /700 miles and Audi say this is OK!! I will not be buying an Audi again and would not recommend them.

Other issues, when the car is wet and you open the window water falls inside the car on the seat. The lights need to be on auto so that you can see the petrol gauge.

The gearing is very high, although with six gears this is not an issue, you need to be prepared to use the gear box out on the road, pulling off is great, the power from the engine is efficiently put down, but I feel the 180 runs out of steam, this may not be the case with the 211 and may justify almost £2k for the extra 31ps of the 211.

The Audi packages offer best valve for adding extras, combined with a 10%+ discount from the dealer (2011MY) and one of the best looking cars on the road for the price - if you can afford the oil.
