A2 reliability test in this weeks AutoExpress

[runboy]

This weeks Auto Express has a booklet on the front with a selection of cars they strip down after X number of miles and see what wear there is. The A2 is in there. I tried scanning but it would be huge so I'm afraid you'll have to buy one-well worth a read though.

I've emailed the page to Stuart to put up on the site if he can.

In summary though it got a good write up apart from some comments on the OpenSky roof.

Steve - 2002 1.4SE petrol, Silver, black/black interior, Then an identical replacement 2003 A2. Now a Toyota Corolla 1.6 T-Spirit

Their car did 40000miles and had problems with roof, mine has done 53000 and roof is still perfect... and I don't have a garage either...
