Sounds awesome!

out of curiosity, how did you end up going on this?

Back in June I sat in an A1 on the Audi stand at Le Mans, I must admit I was a little disapointed. I was asuming it would be an expensive, but well equipped and luxury small car, somthing to outclass the 1 Series. Bassically a little Audi for the city, with the qualities of its bigger brothers.

The switch gear looked and felt very much like my grandpa's skoda, there was no fancy carpet, and things like the seat runners were clearly visible under the seat when you opened the door - no neat trimming.

To be fair to it I didnt realist it 'only' cost £15-16k, but I got out of it thinking it was a nice polo alternative, but not really an Audi. I guess the small car market doesnt sit with the higher prices that the usual audi standard is associated with, so somthing had to give. Im not denying that it felt solid and comfortable, just wondering where the little audi touches were.
