That's one test driveImay have to take, ( then make my excuses and leave before they start throwing affordable figures at me

)

I wish Audi would drop the 245 bhp 3.0TDi engine into the Q3, I would be happy with that.

Wow, but then second impressions are that I'm not sure about it. Obviously it would be great to say to friends and neighbours that you have the quickest Q3 around, but then if accelleration and speed were so important would you not buy an RS3 and get better handling?Just reread what I've written and it's offical, I'm old.

I like the body coloured wheel arch option that I have on my Q3 and it appears that the RS version does not have them. It would probably be less effective in bad conditions-

Well those are my reasons for not buying one.......

The V6 will never fit in the Q3 and the one that excists is designed for longitudinal direction engine bays.
But, a twin-turbo TDI (4 cylinder) is not impossible.
