The Parkers Verdict

It’s been around a while now, but the Audi A1 still commands a loyal following, despite strong opposition in the premium supermini sector. For those looking for a slice of premium lower down the scale, the A1 ticks all the boxes. It also has strong residuals and excellent finance deals.

It’s an accomplished motorway cruiser, but on A-roads and in the city, it’s more ho-hum. So if you’re looking for a car that handles bad roads well, you might be tempted to look in MINI’s direction. Otherwise, a safe choice in a crowded market sector.
