Audi S1 hatchback owner reviews

"The Audi S1 hatchback competes in a crowded marker, but the company has done more than put a 'quattro' sticker on it – this is a seriously fast car"

I love this car, it's so much fun to drive. However, mine has suffered multiple electrical faults due to bad wiring. Even worse, the faults came just after the warranty ran out! It's cost over a thousand pounds to fix so far.

Loved my car when I first bought it but have been consistently disappointed with the frequency and expense of repairs required since! An engine bracket failed (just before the warranty expired, fortunately) but since then the glovebox has fallen off and numerous electrical faults have arisen all of which are very expensive to resolve. I've had much cheaper and older cars that have sailed through life with none of these issues so definitely will not be spending my hard earned cash on another Audi.
