Areas for improvement: Nothing yet...
I downsized to the A3 from the Seat Alhambra (bought the wife the people carrier instead!). So far the car has surpassed all my expectations.
The 170PS diesel engine is absolutely superb, pulling from low down the rev range to past 5,000 rpm - this thing has more torque than a Porsche Boxster and it really can shift.
The SE spec is great too, with cruise control, auto lights & wipers, armrest and the very nice interior lighting pack that adds a touch of class to the car.
Overall, this car is superb and highly recommended.
The running costs for Audi A3 Sportback 170 TDI turbo diesel Manual are normal
