Hi all,

just wondering if anyone on here had driven or even owned one of these? on paper they seem fairly quick, 6.5 to 60. any reviews?

no, not driven one but i have driven a mk4 golf r32 with the same engine.. they are as fast as ****. but then i've always prefered driving n/a cars rather than turbocharged ones.

they are as fast as ****.

6.5 seconds to 60mph ain't fast as **** :P:rofl: The old (Mk2?) Astra GTE used to do 60mph around the 7 seconds mark.... :rofl:

yeah and my lupo can do it in 5.6 but who's complaining?? would you feel safer driving an r32 or a vauxhall ashtray??

I love'em not super fast, but respectable and make quite a nice noise too

more likely to get stolen from outside your house by ch4vs tho

steering wheels used to snap off at the splines when the ch@vs tried to snap the lock off , drove a Belmont(ashtray with a boot) once with mole grips attached to column to steer it

back on topic, no more reviews then?

Here's a useful link. http://uk.cars.yahoo.com/car-reviews/car-and-driving/audi-a3-3.2-quattro-range-1003926.html

Chap at work has one in Yellow with the 19s from the RS6. Looks the mutts nuts and he loves it. I drove the Mk4 R32 which was nice, but the ride was very crashy and the exhaust was very boomy at 3000 rpm. Don't know if the Audi is the same.
