It is a sexy car, the white must be the brightest white on any car, I drive on the motorway almost every day, and I’ve seen a few of these, a good eye catcher, which will turn heads. What’s the rrp price on this actual model. This is the 35model 1.5 turbo 150break???

The 1.5 TFSi engine on an A3 has all the power you need. Unless you wish to consistently carry heavy loads and still have the pull or you want to drive aggressively. With respect to the latter that kind of driving is likely going to get you into one form of trouble or another.

I’ve enjoyed looking through your videos! I’m thinking of buying the same car in blue . I would be interested in seeing a video about what you think of the car now, after having it for a year. Maybe your top 10 favourite features and things you don’t like. Is it expensive to run, have you had any issues with it? How comfortable is the car and the seats for long journeys? This is something which I would be doing quite often! Cheers!

I have got a 2020 sept 35tfsi sline in White which is an ex demo car. So did not get option to add anything it has however got matrix headlights , heated seats, (standard audio) electric lumbar support, lane keep assist which I’m not keen on I find as I live in a fairly rural area unless there are TWO white lines it keeps on warning that i am straying out my lane do find it works ok on a major road with white lines on the near side as well as centre of the road also don’t know if it’s standard on all 35tfsis but it also got cylinder deactivation which I find works very well only know when it cuts in is when message comes up on dash it’s absolutely seamless as I’m an old codger I have to look after the pennies so normally use effiency mode and on a decent run according to on board computer easily get mid fifties mpg. The only real criticism I have is tyre noise which Is obviously down to tyre size this is my third A 3 and they have all had the same problem but I have learned to live with it.

Very interesting. I've heard (and this is purely anecdotal) that sometimes on the production line, the seats or doors, or what have you, that arrive to be fitted might not be the standard ones. So they sometimes fit such components with options instead to avoid slowing or stopping the production line. For heated seats for example, I've seen heating elements online priced at less than £20. So for a company like Audi you can bet they pay less than that. Given also that the electrical loom of the cars is pretty standard too, it is possible that they'd just plug heated seats in when fitted. But it would be pot luck, perhaps? The only 'direct' info like this I've heard, to make this more than a pub story :-), is from a windscreen fitter. He was replacing the windscreen on a 3 series I had, before I had to sue Marshall BMW for £2000 - long story!, and told me a related story. He had just come from a job fitting a windscreen to another BMW. He had already asked me if my car had road sign recognition, it didn't, because that needs a slightly different windscreen type due to a forward facing camera in those cars. Well this previous car he had come from didn't have that feature. But when he came to replace the windscreen, the car did actually have the forward facing camera. But it just wasn't activated. So that's my 'proof' that cars can have optional equipment fitted that hasn't been ordered. The lane departure stuff is interesting. So currently we have an A1 and a TT. The A1 has lane departure warning. So it shakes the steering wheel when it thinks you are about to cross a white line. But it doesn't really put in any steering input. The TT has the next level up - it will put in some steering input if it thinks you are getting close to a white line. So it acts earlier and will actually steer the car to keep it in lane. Though you aren't supposed to drive like that. Audi also hae one further level 'up' - in the £1750 driver assist pack - that locks the car to the centre of the lane. I agree about not liking the idea of that... but actually finding it pretty useful! :-)
