OK, picked up my courtesey car this morning and.............
its an 04 A2 Sport.
Shiny black with very nice multi-spoke wheels and a depressing charcoal black-hole interior. Oh God, manual petrol.
Well tried starting it by standing on the brake and the gears would not engage.
Clutch you fool!
Funny how 30+ years of manual driving is forgotten over 6 months of DSG.
The 1.4 petrol is very difficult to get off the line smartly without revving the gonads off it. (But that could be the oil burning influence over the last 3 years)
Very quiet in the cruise and the brakes are as good as ever.
The suspension has definately been changed since my 2001 SE. This sport is much more compliant, even with the larger diameter wheels and tyres.
Fuel consumption on my drive using DIS is MORE than the 2 litre diesel.
Interesting.
The thick A pillar seems much more intrustive now than it did at first delivery.
NEVER attempt a battle of wits with an unarmed man.
A2 1.4 SE TDI replaced with A3 2.0TDI DSG, the transmission of the future - today.
