Wow, the size difference is really quite somethings isn't it?
I don't now about others but it really proves to me how well designed the D2 is. I still struggle to 'fall' for the D4's looks in the same way that i did when the D2 came out. That said, it's taken a few years for the D3 to grow on me but it has...  What was the reason you got to drive it Neil? (nice pics in the link by the way). Oli

1) I had asked if I could try it sometime 2) They know I'm due to change it this year (probably for something bigger) and 3) Im liking the A7 Sportback a lot and they are trying to tempt me with one of their 2 demonstrators when they want rid of it in a few months! Im trying the sportback next week but wont be able to "borrow" it for a weekend or for a few days until a month or so when the A7 is further away from last week's launch. The inside of the front is very similar to the D4 but I'm liking the Coupé looks and also the hatchback would be handy for me for work, as would Quattro, so I'm looking at a 3 litre tdi quattro with s-tronic (245ps and only 158 g/km of C02 whiich isnt bad at all. The A6 Allroad 3 litre tdi that I had for a week recently averaged an amazing 44 mpg based on my week's motoring and I wasnt hanging around lol My A4 may have to go back in for some warranty work for a week soooo. . . hmmm hehehe maybe another report to follow soon!!

I Drove my D2 today and whilst I know it's got a new tiptronic gearbox it did drive smoothly quietly and just felt "sportier" in terms of driving position and didn't have as much road noise or gearbox engine noise in the car, or didn't seem to! It didn't go as fast of course and I'm sure the fuel consumption is less and I KNOW the toys are less but it didn't feel terrible after the D4 - I guess I'm saying they both have plusses and minuses but both are enjoyable
Ok, now where's that A7 to try next . . . Lol
