    Some questions regarding A4 Avant 1.8T

    I also get mid 20's in this cold weather in my 1.8T B7 commuting in stop start traffic (7miles). The MPG is probably down to the weight as the A4 isn't that light. But it is better on a run i find, (mid to high 30's).

    VW polo

    Had a 1.9tdi 2003 Polo before my A4, The 1.9 made it fairly quick. Good cars, Only problem i had with it was the front ARB (the plastic collars broke). If you go for a sport version see what you think of the ride, as mine had 16" wheels and I found the ride was pretty hard with only one up.
