PS: apologies for the thread hijack!
Having owned three of them, I could not knock them.

Brilliant cars, all three evolutions, utterly reliable with way way better dealers than Audi, fun to drive, cheap to run. The last one, the JCW, would leave most cars trailing on a B road, including my M4

As for the so-called 'maxi' version, I could not believe how much better the fit and finish was on the 3rd gen car we had, compared to the gen 1 and gen 2 cars that preceeded it.

Dare I say, pishes all over an Audi A1
