Trying to decide between 2 cars

    2 very different cars.

    Could you let us know your thinking that lead you to this point?

    I just like the look of both of them

    A3 unless you really need the space of the Tucson

    Ok, but the Tucson is a diesel commercial vehicle, and the Audi is a small petrol hatchback.

    They do the Tucson in a passenger version, they also do it in petrol, they do the Audi in diesel. It all comes down to what you need.


    The Audi strikes me as being a bit in the cheap side for a 2016 S Line.

    Bolands have an annoying habit of advertising cars at the net price of including a scrappage allowance. If your trading in an existing car I'd expect to add another 2k to that advertised price.

    I have a newer model of that A3, the 1.5 150bhp version. Mine is automatic.

    It really is a beautiful and very responsive car to drive.

    Would be very different from a Tucson as others have said.

    I also think the price is too low on it.

    The Tucson is 22000 + VAT which is over 27000 if you can't claim the vat back. It's aimed at businesses. The A3 is 22000 to you.

    It's a 2 seater too. All things considered if you just want something to drive and dont carry bulky goods its a no brainer to go for the a3, apart from anything else it's much nicer in my opinion.
