Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Fantastic. Have previously owned a 07 BMW 318d, this car just blows the beemer off the road. Light steering at low speeds, firmer steering when going fast. Lovely motorway cruiser, stunning cabin, less wind noise than BMW. Just a beautiful car to drive. Plus no run-flats, so car is smooth over bumps and pot-holes. 170bhp 2.0 tdi engine is seriously fast.
What's it like to park?
Easy with light steering and parking sensors, although the wife did struggle the first time she tried to reverse park the car due to its sheer size.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Too early, but so far so good
What's most practical about your car?
Rear space and boot size, excellent for class
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Bluetooth, rear parking sensors and AMI option. If you opt for AMI, you can select your ipod music tracks from your steering wheel buttons (Artists & Tracks etc) as well as on the MMI console screen that comes standard with all Audi A4 cars. Bluetooth option is also fantastic as you can also dial and receive calls from your mobile using your steering wheel controls.
