It just screams "family" to me so its a big no. 
How's that A1 p3asa anygood ?
Right now I preferred the Golf if I'm honest although when I bought the Golf I'm sure I preferred my previous car before that

The Golf seemed more planted on the road whereas the A1 seems light compared to it and gives a bit of torque steer when accelerating.The panel gaps aren't that great compared to the Golf.
At £20 road tax a year, I'm sure I can get used to it.
