Looks nice, much better than the rather awkward Mercedes CLA.

 :laugh:

And? Not sure why you take offence?

I have no need for rear doors. And yes, it does effect my decision to buy cars.

agree that this looks very nice. Going to be a real dilemma choosing between the saloon and Sportback - looks v's practicality

I simply cannot, with the exception of the TT, tell any Audi from another.
Sideways yo!

Lol, I must admit I did almost mistake it for an A4!

Regarding the coupe thing, I can't even see imagine how it would look from those shots.

Its nice, but i dont get what its for?   :confused: It cant much smaller than the A4, however 2 door saloon version would make more sence.

The same is happening with Most manufacturers, models are all getting harder to tell apart ... I understand it from a financial perspective, but :indifferent: none the less.

Even though my last million cars have been hatches I much prefer the shape of a saloon, so looking at the package this comes with I'd be seriously tempted!
