2024 Audi A1 Review | Should You Buy One?

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Today on Buckle Up, Rob reviews the newly face-lifted Audi A1 35TFSI S-Line - which is quite a mouth full. This is Audi's smallest and least expensive offering, but does it live up to the four rings proudly fixed to the grille?
Up against the VW Polo, Seat Ibiza, Skoda Fabia, Renault Clio, Ford Fiesta, Vauxhall Corsa, Citroen C3, Peugeot 208, MG3, Dacia Sandero, Kia Rio, Hyundai i20, Toyota Yaris, Mazda 2 and Honda Jazz.

    That’s different to daytime running lights which are on all the time, regardless of how light or dark it is. Auto lights turn on the headlights and rear lights when it gets dark.

    Can you sit in the back 'not particularly well' is a massive understatement, the actual answer is 'no, not at all. It's sh*t'. It's not a 4 person car, let's dredge up the 80s description '2+2' actually for 2 people and maybe for a short drive 2 extra people can be transported in the car as well.

    A1 was worst brand new car I ever bought, broke down day one, dealership hopeless, repair after repair, after two years I was glad to see the back of it. Every fault would be described as a characteristic of the car, later I saw Audi bottom or close to bottom for reliability.
