| Hi all, Just got my two year old 2.0Fsi 4x4 and it's great! Unbelievably quick (no comments from the vRS brigade please). Managed 42 mpg on the motorway but only mid 30's otherwise which is a bit steep having driven diesels for a while. Built like a tank as well. Even my rain sensor wipers seems to do what it says on the tin. Well chuffed. Anyone else got comments on the 4x4? ![]() |
