What is the cheapest Audi?

The cheapest new Audi is the A1 Sportback 7 Speed Auto, which is listed at $28,900. For more info on the latest models, check out our pricing and specs page, and you'll find all Audi reviews and news here.

Audi was caught up in the same DSG automatic transmission problems that afflicted VW, but you would hope that those problems have been sorted out on the later models such as the 2015 car you're looking to buy. Apart from that doubt the A1 is generally a sound car. As for servicing costs the A1 is about the same as the VW.

Is the Mini Cooper the best small sporty car?

If she has fallen for the looks of the Mini it's probably game over. But you should still test drive the Fiat 500 for style and the Audi A1 as a driving alternative.

Veloster vs A1 vs Polo GTI

The Veloster has just had an update and is better, the A1 is all right but the Polo is a ripper little thing that gets The Tick and is my choice.

Audi/VW parts sharing?

Historically you are correct but the current situation is that Audi mostly uses “tool boxes" of platforms and parts developed by parent company Volkswagen. It dresses them up nicely and adds quality but it's still a fact that an Audi A1 is a VW Polo under the skin and that an A3 is a Golf.

Audi A1 Sportsback keyless entry

It might be misleading in that it suggests that it should work on all doors, but it's done that way for safety so anyone with malicious intent can't jump into the car through the other doors while you're getting yourself organized and getting into the car yourself. If you feel sufficiently aggrieved about it you could complain, but I wouldn't be complaining about it myself.
