  • Living with it

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Have you had any problems with the car?

    Not so far..... except i'm getting a mere 39mpg against their claim of 56.7mpg and I get no empathy from the service staff who just say it will improve as the engine wears in... hmmmn??? Hate the stop-start system which I believe is potentially dangerous ...at best it is exceedingly annoying. I loved my previous A6 3.0 quattro but this is just a fairly ordinary 2.0 ltr saloon ... underpowered but with loads of gadgets. Also hate the multitronic cvt system ..... gives the driver a lack of feel about the drive of the car.

    What's most practical about your car?

    It's an ok and reliable drive.

    Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

    MMi system is good and easy to use.
