    Picking up my 35 TFSI on Thursday. I like it, it was within my budget and after test driving Polo, Ibiza and Fabia I thought this offered the best package for the money.

    Test drove the 25 tfsi I think sport back model for my aunt looking to part from her 12 year old Yaris. 21 reg with only 8,000 miles on the clock. The A1 is definitely more refined interior wise, noise isn’t bad inside at all for a 3 cylinder, light controls too. Power could be better but it’s more spritely than my aunts 1.33 4 cylinder Yaris and surprisingly quieter. I guess it depends on what your used to and for normal town trip it’s perfect, She’s picking up hers in a week!

    Great review but I have to say that the plastic inside - even on the S Line - is appalling. The inside of my 2018 S line felt more luxurious, not as stylish maybe, but it felt more luxurious. I feel Audi have really cut corners and I think they’ve lost me as a customer, whatever the drive quality. Really disappointed. Plastic as far as the eye can see. And are my seats leather or faux leather? Hard to tell.

    • @rivervalegroup
      @rivervalegroup  Рік тому

      Thanks for watching 👍 We understand how crucial the interior feel is for a satisfying driving experience, so it's disappointing to hear that the plastic interior, even on the S Line, didn't meet your expectations. We appreciate your honesty about your experience with the Audi A1 Sportback.

    No, none of these small German cars are worth the money. All are mega overpriced and underpowered. If you really feel like you "need" to get a small German car though, go for a clean, low mileage, used BMW 1 series with rear wheel drive - that's the only one worth having in my opinion.
