The model

Read full review

The Audi A3 Saloon impresses with its agility in corners, comfortable ride and respectable fuel efficiency. A mid-life facelift has given it a sharper, more luxurious interior, but if you prioritise spaciousness and cruising performance, an Audi A4 or BMW 3 Series might warrant the extra investment. If you do buy an A3 Saloon, we recommend the 35 TFSI petrol engine with Sport trim.

The trim

S Line benefits from includes 18in alloy wheels, sports suspension, S line front and rear bumpers, stainless steel pedals, a flat-bottom steering wheel and customisable multi-colour interior lighting, and a rear bench that folds in a 40/20/40 split.
