That's a nice daily Julien. I like those little hatches. We need more compact diesels over in the states. Great mpg and good power!

I want a Audi S3 really badly. If I could, I'd buy one tomorrow. AWD 265hp / 255tq

I just joined a couple TDI forum's, and there are some sweet looking cars, thinking TSW wheels...

No and I wouldn't want one either. With a tune they say you can break 50mpg's with it and pick up some good power. These diesels are some of the cleanest motors around when it comes to carbon ratings.

Yes, however...my RCSB is easier because the visibility is much easier!

Yeah me too, I spent 4 hours at an Audi dealership yesterday and reluctantly walked out, depressed. They have TDI A3's now but they are brand new and none are used, and OTD price for one of those would be mid to high 30's. At some point I had to walk out so as not commit Financial murder.
And a regualar A3 wouldn't of given me the mpg I was after.

This little corner carver will out handle alot of cars surprisingly. Motor trend said it was one of the best handling cars they'd ever tested. It's fun!

Julien, I think you miss read my post. I was talking about an S3 not an A3. Personally, I like the Golf TDI over those 4 door a3's. You made a much better choice and you saved mad coin with the Golf imo.
