Description

September 2009



Seeing mom's new car for the first time at the Audi factory in Neckarsulm.

Now it's almost September 2012, so it's been almost three years, which means that the lease contract is about to expire. The car will therefore go back to Audi, while we will fetch a brand-new A1 from the factory in Ingolstadt next week. It will be petrol instead of diesel powered, with a 1.2 liter TFSI engine. I did the numbers several times to convince mom that it wouldn't make sense to buy a diesel, since she only does city driving most of the time. So despite diesel being the cheapest fuel around here, and despite diesel engines getting the best mileage, it won't offset the higher cost of the car unless you drive a lot. And while I rack up the miles like crazy, driving 500 kilometers per week, mom doesn't, so petrol it is! And if we go on longer roadtrips, we'll take my car anyways, for more space and better mileage.

So, the future:



Yep, I had my way with the colour this time, it will be BLACK, just like my A3!



Because black > white, obviously.

So, that's it then. Farewell, white A3, you were a reasonable car, though nothing special.
