Just had a read through of my original initial review of the car and I have to say not much has changed. Still haven't had to change the brake pads yet however at the last service the mechanic did comment that it was the first one he had seen that had worn pads and that they will need changed at the next service.
Points to be aware of are few, she hasn't put a foot wrong other than a broken ashtray cover. Stone chips are the biggest issue with mine, seems like it picks them up very easily. Servicing costs £1200, will let you know about the 3year as it's due. You can save a fortune by suppling your own oil. Audi charge £75 ltr for Mobil 1 and the car uses 8-10ltr at service so if you buy it from Opie for about £120 the service costs £520. Pollen filter is £280 but you don't need that every time.
Still love the car, probably not the sharpest handling but certainly good enough. The engine and gearbox, mine is S-tronic, are brilliant. Thing pulls like a train and will very quickly hit three figures if your not watching. It's reasonably practical, you can get more in the front boot than you would think.
All in all it's been a very good car to own. Proof of the pudding is in that fact I have kept her for 3 years and she now needs an MOT.
i keep threatening to sell it as we are doing up our house and really don't have the time or funds to use it like it should be. But then I take it out for a wee blast and that idea gets pout on the back burner
