I fully agree, 2.0 TFSI is the perfect tradeoff between cost and performance. Isn´t the 1.5 TFSI engine partially two-cylinder, e.g. the other two cylinders runs away to lunch or disappears for a smoke break. :friendly wink:

If you have selected S-line and in next step select 19" wheels you will in the next step have two options: 1) Deselect S-line package or 2) Exclude S-line sport chassis

2.0 TFSI configured with S-line package AND 19" wheels will not have the S-line suspension.

The Facelift A3 comes with the pivot towbar. It is invisible when not used and does not occupy any space on the trunk. I did a retrofit one on my previous A7. http://www.audi-sport.net/xf/threads/face-lift-factory-tow-bar.285124/

Same on my MY1 8

We politely present facts and opinions which is the purpose of a forum. Why becoming upset and raise your voice? I like both Petrol and Diesel engines and will not start a crusade.

A diesel with automatic transmission is a nice combination in SUV:s and I love it in our MB, but here in Sweden the sale of new diesel cars has dropped dramatically during 2017, and I think the trend will continue. But for a small care like the A3 a petrol engine that is rev happy and also has...

60 Nm more but at a narrower RPM range compared to the TFSI:s 7 gears (not 6) and 6 hp more. I doubt there is a performance difference. I have also seen tests that indicate that to petrol engine delivers between 200 and 210 hp due to unsuccessful downsizing. :yes:

Correct

From SSP 606 - Audi 1,8l- and 2.0l TFSI engines of series EA888 (3rd generation) It is stated for the A3: 95 RON but unleaded petrol RON 91 permitted, but however with loss of power and for the S3: 98 RON but super unleaded 95 RON authorized, but however with loss of power

I have my wife's MB or my A2 for cargo transports.

Good Choice, nice engine and nice colour!
