Yeah the A1's are way too high standard.

Im going down the Air route with mine for practicality

if you dont mind me asking, how come your going from an astra vxr to a bagged a1?

Work are imposing emissions limits on all cars for employees now so the vxr has to go as its over 200kg/m3.

Sad to see it go but onto better things

The new rules stipulate 120 kg/m3 max so had to drop engine size and always loved the A1's so went for it at the 1.4 petrol TFSI with 150ps is 119 emissions

What the hell do you work as?? Haha if my work tried to tell me what I can and can't drive I would tell them to do one and be looking for a new job not a new car haha

Civil Engineer mate, only have to stick to the rules as I get a car allowance in lieu of a company car as having a boring company car would drive me mad.

Because im taking the allowance then I have to stick to the company car rules too even though its my own private car.

Im happy enough to be getting rid of the vixxer though at its done 93k in 4 years and will need money throwing into it soon enough for turbos etc.

New car should be more efficient on fuel too so save me abit
