    DRIVING:
    Few thousand kilometers

    I still remember, the day when I test drove the car with my family, and sooner the test drive finished, it was unanimous buy decision with a remark by all,"it is simply Superb!!!!". It was choice between 3 series and this. Initial 1-2 months were great and we really enjoyed the drive. and on an highway mileage was 15.1 kpl (1.8 tsi engine).However the first impression started blurring. with first visit to the workshop for a sudden mpfi lamp on the panel lit up, pathetic experience. Right from receiving yourself to fixing the problem, this does not happen at the other luxury car segments workshop in India. After the fix. don't know what happened the mileage went down to 12 kpl on highways under same conditions!!! Worst was to be experienced in first summer after purchase that you sweat at the rear!!!! Cooling is really bad at the rear.  You miss a USB port in today,s world of itouch. When you try to complain abt things they need chasis, engine number in the response mail from customer care for them to help. I would not be doing justice if I do not mention that it's a fantastic experience when it comes to driving, space. and I love driving this car if I forget the ac, after sales, workshop and fuel economy.

    Good Space , driving pleasure, safetyBad air conditioning , workshop experience, fuel economy, no USB port , no gps navigation
