Hi guys, I am new to the forum, currently have a mk4 golf but since finishing uni and starting work I fancy treating myself a wee bit.
I would love an S3 but they are slightly out of my price range just now, so an A3 it is. The only features that are a must are that it is an S-line and is quattro (basically because once I set my mind on something that's what I want ha ha).
I was thinking about the 170 diesel due to travelling 44 miles (there and back) a day for work. However I did notice that the diesel is £1000 or so more expensive than the 2.0 T. Coming from a diesel golf I quite fancy the 2.0T just for something different, however when I put my sensible head on I think the diesel is the one to go for.
Basically was wondering what kind of MPG figures people are seeing in both models and is it worth spending the extra for a diesel? Also what like each model is to drive would be good?
I know there are a lot of variables to consider but just looking for a general idea to help my decision along.
Thanks
Justin
