Quattro question?

[WilkoS5]

Guys,

I'm looking at weighing in my S3 for something a bit more "sensible".

I've got my eye on a 1.9TDi Sport Quattro Avant. Is the quattro system the same as on the S3 (haldex) or will it be permanent four wheel drive?

All other Quattro other than S3/TT is Torsen permanent 4wd.

is that a good system? as my next car in a year or so will be an audi will permanent 4wd

yeah its very good, i got larger audi mainly cos of that handling is very good on such a big car

but S3 is more nimble, and quick point to point.

Does this mean cheaper servicing costs then?
