...but that looks rather quiet.
My wife's A2 was bought 2nd hand nearly two years ago, and we've started to think about what might be a suitable replacement. I think our opinions of the car are pretty similar:
Likes:
Looks and individuality.
Light weight and good ride/handling compromise.
'Quality' feel.
Economy.
It's a far better 'workhorse' than my car.
Dislikes:
The dealers aren't brilliant, and aren't cheap.
It's a 1.4 petrol, and lacks a little low down.
I've been told elsewhere by ULP that the 1.6 is similar to the 1.4 unless you are further up the rev range, and (without wishing to open what I believe is a periodic debate) she doesn't want the diesel.
Has anyone thought ahead enough about what you will have as replacements? Does the A1 look like it'll be too conventional when it arrives? I can half picture my wife having an A-Class (which she considered before the A2) but I'm really not keen. If the A2 was still in production, the choice would be simple.
Any suggestions are welcome!
Oh, and hi, by the way.
