I am sure if you give the audi a wash and polish /wax you will like it a bit better white is good when clean and the garage will be delighted to get the car back cleaner than when you got it .
Haha! My dislike of the A3 has nothing to do with it's colour or whether it's clean or not. I'm not
that shallow.
It's only a temporary arrangement but that doesn't stop you taking note of the handling and detail etc. There are many things I don't like about it. It understeers more than any other car I've had. Steering lacks precision, a bit flabby. The seats are exceptionally uncomfortable (no lumbar adjustment) and have given me back ache, which I've never had in my life before. The centre console is a barren zone that attracts dust at three times the rate of the Mk6. The same might be true of the piano black trim in the R? I don't like the lack of headroom compared to a Golf. The rear view mirror is minuscule. The driving position is odd and no amount of adjustment has helped. At it's lowest position the seat belt still rides up and cuts across my neck, despite me fiddling with seat height to counter this. Never had any such problem on a golf. The STOP/START seems to work only intermittently and is inconsistent. It lacks a full auto electronic handbrake like the Mk7. I could go on.....lol.
The good points? I may never have to fill it up due to the increased mpg (diesel) but I'm actually beginning to miss my trips to the petrol station. It is marshmallow-like over the potholes, which helps with the backache it has given me, haha. That's a new experience for me as I'm used to bone crunching 19's. But would I trade them for this? No.
There, I feel better now.
Now where's my carnauba wax?
