The Audi S1: watch out, Mini Cooper S

Being an Audi, Quattro four-wheel drive will be available – so S1 and Q1 derivatives will have the added traction gains allowed by all-wheel drive. The S1 is said to gain flared wheelarches and a 200bhp turbo engine for genuine pocket rocket thrills.

I persnally think it looks quite good for a city car, normally don't like city cars.

They better do a 3 door version. With five that is vile.

Just looks like a smaller A3

(not a terrible thing, but would have been nice to see something completely new)

Am I seeing a similarity to the Astra there?

SilverTongue · 4 Mar 2010 at 08:54

added pic of the 3 door version

to be honest i prefer the look of the 5 door

Remove silly silver strips. Leave black roof on the car...Passable.

Looks like the sort of thing my wife would like.

Note: "Artist's impression".

Treat as BS untill further advised.

I quite like it, not sure about silver roof though.

However if you read the article that is linked in the story (http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/Green-...reen-First-Pictures/Audi-Metroproject-unveil/) regarding the Metroproject (A1 Concept car) it says that the design will only differ slightly from the concept, so I think the artists impression is pretty much spot on

This.

Not a bad looking car at all.

i think it looks like the scirocco at the back, it looks cool with the silver roof

SilverTongue · 4 Mar 2010 at 09:36

hope it goes into production soon tbh, wouldn't mind seeing it on the road

Skidder · 4 Mar 2010 at 09:49

I'm sure it will sell well, not to me though.

K1LLSW1TCH · 4 Mar 2010 at 09:53

I wonder how much it'll cost.

SilverTongue · 4 Mar 2010 at 09:56

not as much as an Aston Cygnet lol

Abraham · 4 Mar 2010 at 10:07

looks shedloads better than the A2

SilverTongue · 4 Mar 2010 at 10:08

anything looks better than an A2 though

Mucky_Pup · 4 Mar 2010 at 10:49

Would rather have one of them than an A2 *shudders*

Think it's going to be cheaper than A2?

That is horrid.

Haven't they had an A1 for ages? Or am I thinking of something else.
