Awesome car. Some interior shots?

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Cheers Chaps,

Garage roof.... gym to keep me in this shape top shape (NOT).

Engine.........2.0T (NOT)

I demo'd a 2.0Tq which was swift but nothing like wifeys. MPG was BAD.

Its my work hack so a sensible 2.0TDI 143PS but with Multitronic which is super smooth and with paddles as well.
Run out at the weekend I managed 51.5mpg and it still only has 450 miles on the clock.
Interior


Thats the only shot at the mo.

Seats are leather/alcantarra with silver stictching which looks the muts.

Also added Exec pack (cruise, B/tooth), 19" alloys, folding mirrors, interior light pack, hill hold and 3G Multi Meadia Interface. Sat in traffic today watching The Office.

The Lava Grey paint is amazingly sexy.

Lovely looking A4 there! Lava Grey is a stunning and much under rated colour IMHO! some nice options on there, but why no B&O sound system??

ta to all  :smiley:and I post some interior pic's up hopefully at the weekend.

It is a lovely super smooth car. New common rail is whisper quiet and gearbox is a dream.

I was thinking it is quite lively, but just had to pop out and took the Golf.......It makes the A4 feel like you are driving in treacle.

Its funny really that both cars are from the same stable, but things are done so different. There are plus's on the A4 but there are things which I think 'the golf does it why not the A4'. Its amazing.

anyway there must be method in their madness.
