Driving it
What's it like to drive?
It is a very comftable car to drive, although duer to its size can be difficult to park in multi storey car parks, this is not a fault of the car as I purchased it for its size. I use it for towing and the fuel economy is great and it has plently of power if required.
What's it like to park?
The car is long and is fitted with parking aids. It can be tricky to manuver in to tight car parks but no worse than my previous car Mitsibushi L200. Very light steering and good turning circle .

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
The horm module failed recently and was replaced under warrenty. Cars have advanced a lot as I thought a horn was a button and a relay not a £250 PCB.
What's most practical about your car?
I use the car for towing a caravan, it has great power and sits well on the road. The boot is a great size and accomodates a German Shepard in luxury.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
As always with Audi the basic model comes with a lot of toys and each one makes me smile just as much as the next.
