they are okay..Audi's are pricey when they go wrong, so get a warranty....

all she'll have to do is keep her licence.. they are quick..and a darn sight quicker than a punto..

When was the haldex last changed?
Was the water pump changed to the latest metal type?
Bose stereo is not as good as you think, no highs no lows that will be bose. Think of it as a standard set up.

Coil pack is a bit dodgy on many of the VW group's 1.8 variants, if you can find a receipt in the paperwork for a new one, so much the better.

Don't be surprised when it sounds like a diesel when you start it. All the VAG 20v engines do.

I never had a problem with coilpacks but knew a couple of people that did and they are expensive. Anti roll bar bushes it seemed to use, most people upgrade them.

I never really noticed that mine sounding noisy during start up. I know they were meant to be noisy for a split second. Remember it takes SUL petrol as well.

Rear seats are very cramped, even for children.
