| No brainer. I've got the 3.2 version of the A3 with DSG. Makes for a very relaxing drive. It does 30mpg on the motorway at ~80 - can't realy ask for much more.

| The clerk of the court doesn't fit in at all, he/she has nothing to do with the safety camera system. I wrote in a previous thread that died when I also said: I've also heard quite a few stories about how the "clerk to the justices" can be far from impartial?

| Was I right? Was I wrong? I was mightily impressed by this lad's honesty and awareness of safety while driving. There was nothing about his driving which caused me concern. I'd prefer him to be driving at less than 85, but that's nit picking. I saw other motorists that deserved and got their three ... |
