No lie, when i see A3 and Golf i just dont see any image difference whatsoever now, VW have pulled Golfs right up in this last incarnation.
Iv got a new shape one out there a diesel auto, the car drives blinding, absolutely superb, even that 2006 one me daughter has got has got a good feel to it.
I see the image thing between Skoda and VW , but not Audi A3 and VW.
You tell me how is that worse than an A3?
I've got one of those so I want to agree with you. However it's a brand new model and they've been facelifting the A3 for millenia. If they released a brand new A3 and a brand new Golf tomorrow, the A3 would trump the Golf in the image stakes. They've just got a better image amongst youngsters in particular in my view. I certainly see more young people driving A3s than I do Golfs.
I remember being lambasted for leaving my reg year visible on my car photos, so presumably the same crowds will be piling in on you any second.

I looked at the Golf and the A3 when I was picking a company car and thought the Audi was nicer inside and out. The Golf looked a bit lardy for my liking. [Badge snob moment]Plus if you're not paying for it..why pick a VW if you can have an Audi? [/Badge snob moment]
I'd take an Octavia vRS though. Love them! See I'm not really a badge snob.![]()
