Well, it's official - there will be an A2 replacement and it'll go on sale in 2009.
It will be called the A1 and in a controversial move, it will be made in Wolfsburg, at the VW factory there.
It seems that the car will be based on the current Polo chassis, with the current Golf chassis being an option. The Wolfsburg plant has just lost the Golf contract (and 2000 workers!), so it seems that the decision to build the new car there is politically motivated.
I have also learned from a very good source that the Audi brand may well break away from VW parentage to become its own boss in the near future - that could be a mixed blessing!
Cheers,
Mike
