Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Great, magic carpet ride compared to previous Audis. Much more of a cruiser and much quieter than the B6 + B7 models. Avoided the S-line and ultra low profile tyres deliberately.
What's it like to park?
Feels a bit bigger than the previous A4 and to be honest it is as big as I'd ever want to go in any car for negotiating some of these hatefull multi-storey parks.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
No. Stop start function is a silly gimmic though, but this is on most cars now.
What's most practical about your car?
Larger interior than previous A4's and great bluetooth phone interworking. Thought I'd hate the electronic handbrake, but this turned out to be fantastic.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Music on SD card media slot.
