my mate has one of these in black. Not the ultra version but looks the same. Really smart.
The led lights are a bit bright!!!

Yeah the LEDs are bright but didn't have the budget for them so this had xenon plus headlights
Got a few extras and it feels quite nippy considering its size

Nice car. I really liked mine when I had one.
'Ultra' is a nice proposition. Mine was 129g/km from memory for the auto box. Does it have the twin pipes either side?
Audi have actually closed order banks for these as they have sold so well...

yeah twin pipes either side - yeah they have closed orders but the facelift is also due next year which has helped as the discounts were huge
Very impressed with it so far

Is yours a manual or DSG/S-Tronic or what ever they call it these days?

So far cannot get completely comfy, but I think its because the pedals are offset.
Apart from that I am loving the car and it really has some road presence

That's what I didn't like about the A4 when I had one on loan

I am getting used to it
No doubt the BMW was more engaging to drive, but the ride is so much better and the steering is not that bad in Dynamic mode but BMW still has better feel
However its not a car that you will want to chuck about anyway - its more for eating up the miles which is what I wanted

Nice. Wheels a little bit Reventon/some sort of boomerang thing I had when I was a kid, was pretty cool.

Audi really have got it perfect on this car imo. All the proportions look correct and everything suits everything else.

Agree, smallest niggle is the front wheels could do with being a bit more forward like the mercs and bmw but price you pay for FWD
They have angled the bumper to try and reduce the overhang
Other than that its superb and enabled loads of things through vcds which adds a personal touch

I'm 30... and that car seems way to sensible and grown up even for me! Blooming nice though, especially the interior.
