General Comments:

Smart little hatchback and solid Audi quality. Love this A1, my first car!

After passing my test I looked at the usual stuff from Ford and Vauxhall and other cars... nice I thought, but I really wanted an Audi.

I am no badge snob, but my dad has always had Audi and highly recommended them to me. He has Audis since the Audi 80 / 100 saloon days and now drives a very modern A6. I asked him what car manufacturer I should get first and I knew what his response would be!

I am loving this A1 Sport model with the 1.6 diesel engine. Punchy and still very economical and cheap to run which is what I need right now. A little expensive to buy initially, but worth it. Even used with some mileage they hold value.

Interior has all the electrics a 2017 car should. I still think it looks and feels as good as new for a car getting on eight years old.

Not had it long so long term reliability remains to be seen. But if it's anything like Audi of days gone by, I am assured it will be fine.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
