■ than anybody else is tap directly into the often deeply illogical subconscious of the buyer. It sows seeds of desirability
surround this latest A3. What Audi continues to do better
trap that most of us can’t wait to blunder into. Is that wrong? Is it qmical? Not really. The A3 serves a need and serves it veiy
engined version that will aver age 54.3mpg and'won’t break 120g/km either. It might have style, but it backs it up with a steady and quiet vein of sub stance. But then so does a Golf. So is the A3 is an artfully laid
and more economical than be fore. You can buy a punchy petrol
that are hard to bat away with simple financial rectitude. The base story is that it’s big ger, better built, safer, quicker
latest model. Nor will the fact that there will be many quite happy to pay that premium. Forget all the numbers that
THE power of the brand. It’s something Audi muses on at some len^h and it’s the driving force behind the success of the A3. After all, an A3 is a Golf in a posh, frock and which com mands a significantly heftier askingprice. That won’t change with this
, well. The latest model is, by any reasonable measure, a smart,
admirable and technically bril liant thing. The intelligent people who
will buy it will nevertheless have the self-awareness to ask them
selves whether they have been gulled, maybe just a little. Those with typical Audi
owner self confidence probably won’t mind either way. FACTS AT A GLANCE
