The AUDI A3 (2008-13) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.6 TDI DPF SS EU5 105 is a premium-feeling, three-door family hatchback, sitting between mainstream models such as the Volkswagen Golf and pricier compact cars. Its smart styling and well-finished cabin give it a more upmarket impression than many everyday hatchbacks, while its compact size makes it manageable around town. The 1.6-litre diesel is suited to regular commuting and longer journeys, with modest fuel use helping keep running costs sensible. The three-door layout is less convenient for frequent rear-seat access, so it best suits singles, couples or small households rather than families needing easy child-seat access. A comfortable, composed drive and restrained design are key attractions. Mycarcheck.com recorded 591 look-ups across 247 distinct VINs.
