    Had been fixated on getting an Audi A3 again but it’s hard to find a petrol version. What do people think of the a class?

    Have you tried a Golf Highline as suggested last time :)

    They only sold under 100 petrol A Classes per year in 2017 and 2018

    Colm, you’re great for replying-thanks (again). Think I’m allergic to them. Lots of boy racers where I live and my boss has one!

    RWD = Rear wheel drive, ie the rear wheels are driven by the engine instead of the front. Makes the car a bit sharper to drive. Very few RWD cars in that end of the market.

    Fugly is in the eye of the beholder of course.
