New to Audi and looking to buy a3 quattro - but petrol or diesel?
Hi,
Undertook a limited test drive of an A3 quattro sportback today 2.0TFSI - and have to say was impressed.
However having driven a 1.9tdi golf mk 4 for 10 years (206000 miles -having spent so very little on it and still on original clutch), am inclined towards the 2.0tdi quattro.
But read some horror stories about reliability in particular the DPF. and couldnt think of a better place to seek advice on the audi brand
I am about to move to Scotland, and will also tow from time to time a trailer with a caterham 7 aboard, however the torque on my current golf is less than either of the two motors noted above (albeit delivery in the petrol will be different) so dont see this as an issue, but then some of you may know better.
So then A3 sportback quattro petrol or diesel?
If you can help, thanks in advance of your reply
cheers
Darren
