Should I swap my BMW 3-Series 1.8 for an Audi S3?
I currently own a BMW 3-Series 1.8 F30 M Sport diesel which is great on fuel but I fancy an Audi S3 instead. What should I do?

An S3 is a very quick 150mph + car and quick on corners if driven properly by tucking it in to the apex and accelerating hard. If you lift off in a corner it understeers strongly. Forget mpg. You'll be looking at about 30mpg.
Real MPG enables you to register the fuel economy you are actually getting against your make and model of car, its engine and type of transmission.
Every time you enter an average consumption figure against your car, the overall average automatically adjusts to reflect it.

Brilliant to drive, powerful and fuel-efficient engines, good interior space and practicality.
Powered by smooth 2.0 TFSI engine with 300PS. Quattro four-wheel drive means superb traction. Lighter weight helps economy with an official 40mpg.
