Summary
What does this car say about you?
Understated but classy.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Nice but too fast.
Would you buy this car again and why?
Yes, any Audi S car. About as quick point to point as you can get in all weather conditions.
What are you likely to buy next?
Something diesel for economy purposes until I get the urge for the power and speed again.

Buying experience
Type of dealer you bought from?
Franchised
Did you buy this car new?
No
What price did you pay?
£18,999
When did you buy the car?
March 2014
Did you get a good deal and why?
I think so as it was the cheapest and best specced low mileage example I could find. Plus from a Audi dealer you get the warranty which is invaluable.
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
Pace and practicality with mildly real world economy.
What was the dealer like?
Seemed very good, however they sold the car with a steering noise/fault which has just had to be rectified under warranty.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Press dynamic button on the drive select, floor the throttle and prepare for your heartbeat to rise rapidly. Awesome car!
What's it like to park?
Easy peasy.
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Water pump/thermostat and steering rack replaced under warranty. You get a brand new courtesy car while they repair it, so not too bad.
What's most practical about your car?
It can fit the whole family in while keeping pace with just about anything in real world conditions.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
S tronic gearbox simply awesome. If you can get it with the two tone super sports seats they look great as well. Too many gadgets to list just one. Drive select button effectively gives you two cars in one.
