Default 450 Miles, 4 people, weekend supplies, and equipment...A2 is incredible

I am involved in rifle shooting here in Scotland. We had a competition in Sutton-Coldfield this past weekend which we traveled to by car. All I can say is wow! The car was comfortable for everyone and it held 4 rifles, a crate of ammunition, kit bags, overnight bags, and all of our fat *****. Cruising at 80-85mph average down the M6 we made about 280 miles per 30 litres. I maxed the car out, fully laden, at 110mph although I think it had another 5 mph in her. Really happy and quite impressed.

4 seats...car is too small to consider the rear bench as a 5 seater

Default I live in both places

I do research in the UK for 9 months and live in Florida 3 months a year. My S4 is driven more by my brother, who is looking after it, however I still own it. I am trying to secure a job in the UK that will allow me to stay. If that does happen, I will probably sell both the A2 and S4 for one A3/S3 model. However, that is almost a year away when I have to make that decision.

I may be staying in the UK for the summer to make some headway in my research. If that does happen, I am thinking of driving over to Nuremberg to visit a friend of mine. Should be interresting in the A2.
