The Audi's are always solidly built and you will probably find the plastics, cloth and leather are of a better finish and quality than the Skodas.

However, value for money and the Skoda Superb will of course win.

Don't go to the dark side Chan - resist the temptation.

I agree !

In the past!

Just realised the plastic in the Audi 12-plate is really tacky! Eeek!

New Audi looks lovely, i do agree much when you mention that in the audi you can see the indicator flash on the wing mirror from the interior, every year i drive my sister and her husband to the airport every year in her car, and then take it back to my house and leave it at the top of the drive for 2 weeks or so, she has a 60 plate polo bluemotion 1.2 TDI and it has the same mirror/indicator setup as the audi and i must say it is a feature that i approve of highly, back to topic, hope the superb comes back to you in excellent conditon!

The new Octavia has the same mirror repeaters, I'd guess if the Superb doesn't get them on the facelift then it'll get them on the mk3.

If you think the Audi is cheep to run Chan try specing one up the same as Audrey and seeing the price to buy! Also factor in the price of the chiropractor for your back ache.

Pull handle for rear centre arm-rest ... wish Audrey had it too ...

Cheers Denis!

Audrey in good hands (fingers crossed) with DM Keith (Leeds).

Matt (a member here) is looking after her :-)

Yes - u right Spence.

Nothing can come close for the Superb money!

Top of range A4 S-Line and no leather, electric seats, satnav, sunroof, fold mirrors ...etc etc :-)

Boot release in the cabin!

But the left foot rest too far away - Audrey s is raised - thn again maybe i am too short! :-)

if passengers want to put something in the boot i turn the car off pull the key out the ignition and hold the boot button pop the boot and then start the car again, hey presto

Tried that.

Maybe I need to try again ...

Still, rediculous to switch on/off for a boot release! Week!

Pull handle for rear centre arm-rest ... wish Audrey had it too ...

mine has a pull handle at the same place as on the audi, but not as big

U do, Dennis?

Any pics?

This review of the 2012 Audi A4 S-Line 1.8 TFSI 170bhp agrees with me

that the interior is just not upto normal Audi standards!

U do, Dennis?

Any pics?

yes here is a pic (had to unzip the seat covers to get to it)

Cheer Denis!

Now how come Audrey not have it?

I have to squeeze, scratch, dig the top of the arm rest to get my down :-(

don't know if leather seats don't get it? how is Audrey? any more news on the progress, how is the Audi fairing up? keep us posted!

I like the Audi ! Eeek!

No news from Skoda :-(

I find Audi quite like little touches.

- see outside mirror indicators

- little compartment within glove (i hide my garage fob in there)

- booth net storage right size for my 15eggs!

Obviously overall still no competition for Audrey!

I love the petrol!

you should phone them and ask how the car is getting on, i would personally go to the garage and look at it, as some of them can tell a load of rubbish over the phone, hope its getting on okay

Aw - thanks Denis, u really care about Audrey :-)

She s being repaired by Skoda (approved VW garage).

At the very least thy shudnt be like cowboys?

well i know how i'd feel if it was my car had been in an accident so nice to show some consideration, but when my car is in the garage i like constant updates as to the progress of the job, when my last octavia was in getting some major bodywork repairs done it was in for 5 days that involved, new bumper, new tail light, pulling rear quarter out, filling it, paint ETC, and every day i phoned for updates and went down to the garage twice to see what had been done

and they done a good job

turned this
