That has turned a good looking car into an awful one ! It actually looks as if they forgot to put a grille on.

At least that's my opinion.

1.4 Petrol Special Edition, Ebony Black, grey leather, heated seats, climate, opensky, five spoke alloys for SWMBO (Replaced a 2002 1.4 Petrol SE) Honda Accord Tourer 2.2 iCDTi for me.
 
I think it's due from about build week 17 2005. One reason I was put off by the three door was it's 'old school' design which is reflected inside the car too. No doubt the interior will be upgraded at the same time.
 
Only interior upgrade will be the Edward Munch (The Scream) steering wheel...

[Maybe it was Audi engineers that stole that painting to use as a model for the new grille/steering wheel! If memory serves the getaway car was an Audi 100 Avant c.1992...]

and also that is not an official picture... hence it looking as if it has no grille. The badge is blacked out.

Had to search a bit but found the picture I saw in the newspaper:

3_men_and_an_audi.jpg


From http://www.iconoduel.org/archives/2004/08.php

That is clearly an Audi Avant!

The end is nigh.

The A3 is dead.
Will someone not rid me of this troublesome grille?

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.
