Always fun to drive, with sporty performance & handling; a real pocket rocket ! Car is used around town & for the school run with the occasional blast along the highways. It is also the preferred ride for the missus.
Comfortable & refined cruiser at legal speeds on motorways with the punch to safely overtake when the need arises. Engine hums in the background when using the cruise control.
Good petrol consumption
High tech: Super charged & turbocharged engine with a 7 speed DSG.
Sporty but comfortable tartan seats at the front. Solid build & high quality paintwork
Low road tax.
Some turbo lag when accelerating hard
Hard suspension but ride improved when tyres were changed to Continentals
Rear passenger & boot space limited
DSG sometimes hunts for the right gear especially driving up on slight inclines
To improve
A bit more space for the rear passengers & boot.
More low down torque to minimise any turbo lag.
Yes, I would recommend this car
