Generally excellent. A couple of issues rectified by the dealer early on. Now one or two electrical gripes creeping in (at mileage of around 56K) - electric window switches faulty, coolant warning light fault etc

Excellent car (third a3 i've owned) let down by unreliable alarm system when new. Eventually fixed under warranty after i threatened to follow the 'sale of goods' route. The problem led to a redesign of the alarm software on all new a3 and tt audis.

The car is excellent, almost the best purchase i have ever made, the arrogance and rip off prices of the franchised dealer service department is the only poor experience i have had. Worrying they don't seem to know how the service regimes work for their own vehicles!!

Very happy, does exactly what i expected it to do, just a shame it is not a little bigger as i struggle to pull my caravan comfortably. Also hatch back style boot is not as good as a proper 'estate' boot for access and loading.

Best car ever owned, so far. Good balance between performance when needed and outstanding fuel economy in a practical package. I will buy another in due course.
