As it stood outside the garage on September 1st it looked fantastic, couldn't wait to get the keys and go for a drive, anyway paperwork done etc, i unfortunately kerbed it on the way home 
oh well accidents happen, (bus drivers going down roads which are far too narrow) anyway, was in love with the way it looks, and the interior is phenomal.
Then to drive, the car is fantastic, apart from a whirr sometimes in the morning upon startup probably because it's cold, generally the engine is so quiet! I find it amazing how quick it is from 3rd gear onwards, and then you physically see the engine and you can't believe how small it is, ok it's a 1.4 but you would think thr the engine is bigger in the engine bay. The steering was ok at first, now I've discovered it sticks at speed, but it's going into Audi to be looked at so hopefully they sort it.
Practically the car hasn't been tested, I've had to take some things to the tip and fold the seats down, but for me the car is not challenged this way and there's plenty of space inside, especially with the hidden cubby under the boot floor! Ok it's a 3 door but in my opinion the sportback doesn't look as good as the 3 door anyway.
The sat nav is a great feature, got me out the poo a few times although it almost led me once to the back of the m40 traffic jam! Love the Bluetooth system, anyone can ring me, was nice when i was told about mis-payments i was owed back when I was 15....
The iPod goes under the armrest and plays my songs so im happy with that. Sadly i cant control Spotify through the system which is a shame.
Cleaning it has been difficult, however I'm pleased with the shine it gets once it's cleaned, I pop to my local town to get it done and only costs 6 quid so I'm happy with this.
Economy has been better since the engine has been worn in, drives down to Bristol and Manchester twice have been positive. Last week I went up to Manchester and got around 54-55mpg which is fantastic! Especially when averageing around the speec limit then back through the 50's along the M6 plus town droving etc.
So thats it really, almost 6 thousand miles on the clock and 6 months old, it's going well so far, and I hope the same for your 64/15 plate cars
