I quite like the look of it - not too sure about the metalwork on the nose though.

Don't drink drive! Not only is it socially unaceptable, it also harms A2's.
Was a 1.4SE petrol. http://www.audi-a2.co.uk/uk14.htm http://www.audi-a2.co.uk/safety.htm
New A2 - Ebony Black, Red Leather, CC, Symphony + all the previous options we had.
 
Looks very grown up compared to the current model. I do like it.

Nov 2002 TDi Sport, Silver,Black/grey interior,climate. Replaced previous Mar 2001 TDi SE
 
The front lights look like those on the lateet revision to the 3 series
 
Agree about the metal work on the front, especially as it looks like it's polished chrome - if it catches the sun, surely it could blind other drivers!

Otherwise, it looks smart. The rear looks a bit like the rear of the A8.

I like it. Has a presence on the road. Maybe the front metal work reflects radar speed guns!!

is it just me or does it look just like the new 5 series????? Note the squinty headlights and bulb-like rear lights.... Side angles is very A8 though... The estate model also looks rather smart.

I think they've done a good job of making it stand out from the other mundane rep-jobs - looks good!

You're not the first person to make the comparison with the 5 series. There has been much debate on the Club B5 forum about the looks.
The estate looks like a Toyota Camry estate in side profile IMHO.

Only a minor detail, but the rear badge looks like its been randomly applied - should be in the bottom left of the boot!!
 
Looks good, pity it is coming out too late, am due to change mine in February and I don't feel like getting another "soon to be old car" to replace my 1.8T.

Why are NEARLY all the A2s in Lichfield are silver ? ? ?
 
The boot lid looks similar to the Seat Leon-have a look at how the half-moon lights eat into the vertical lid.

Looks good but it needs to handle better than the current model, after almost four years in a 1.8T (came with stiffer suspension than standard), the Mondeo is miles better, even the Octavia handles better than the Passat and the 130TDI goes like a rocket! Will see what the 128BHP Mondeo is like tonight.
Making the choice of a replacement difficult since her indoors won't let me have a 90BHP 1.4TDI!

Looks similar to the VW Pheaton just a smaller model
Suppose thats the look they want to go for so to make the cars look similar to each other since the VW Golf looks similar in design in the way the front looks.
Looks very nice though just wonder about the cost of the car.

;)

cheers
