Audi A3

[4D]

I currently own a civic type r, which is able to legally carry four.  My circumstances may change where I need to have a car that carries five. Has anyone got an experience with the Audi a3 2.0T (200 bhp)?  Other cars I am considering are BMW 320d or mk5 golf gti or newer seat Leon fr.  All advice welcome

Am i missing something? I've been in a civic type r that could very much carry 5 people, had the correct no of seatbelts etc......

Mine's the ep3 version not the fn2 (new shape)

Quite clearly forgetting the Alfa 147 GTA on that list...

Ive got the golf gt diesel, and its great. Good mpg and really torquey. I guess u would have a good choice, as tnefe's loads around.

still dont understand why he can apparantly only get 4 in a civic type r

are they fucking obese or something?

i drive an a3 sport 1.9 tdi 58 plate. absolutely love it but previous cars iv had to compare it to are saxo,freelander and ibiza. so not sure how my opinion will rank. really good on fuel and a top drive. u wouldnt be dissapointed although i recommend not walking round the showroom as the one your buying wont seem as gd
