Hi Guys,
I am due to change my company car next year and I am looking for some advice on what to get next. I currently have an Astra diesel which is mapped to about 200BHP and after shed loads of issues with this particular car I want something different and quicker and I want one of the following:
A3 - 2.0TFSi
A3 - 2.0TDi
S3
My head is saying go for the A3 Diesel because it will be cheaper on fuel & co. car tax and much better MPG but my heart says get the S3! So my questions are:
If I went for the A3 Diesel and mapped it would it be quicker than the Astra? Currently the Astra can do 0-60 in around the high 6's on a good run.
If I went for the A3 TFSi and mapped it would it be as quick as the S3 and are there any real MPG gains from mapping it?
If I went all out and got the S3 and mapped it would there be any real MPG gains from mapping it?
It will also come down to lease costs but having a quick looks at the A3 TFSi and S3 there isn't too much difference.
What are peoples opinions of these models? I know Audi's are very reliable solid cars but anything I should look out for?
Thanks very much,
Nick
