I had a go in one my bosses A1 sline that he had as a courtesy car, apparently it was the dealerships "pack" car?? So i imagine it had the sport suspension fitted, it handled really well imo but our journey took us along a section of the M42 which is concrete paved and it was far too hard for that type of road.

like you say though it's one of those things that not everyone can agree on, unlike DSG vs manual!!
Hope you enjoy your new motor though mate, tis a lovely car!
