In Europe traction and grip are referred to under the umbrella term 'Road Holding'. My friends never believed me, now I have found a video to send them as proof.
i like the car alot but it's 10k euros too expensive, in Belgium it costs 32000 euro for a full option 143 hp diesel, that's just too much for a car that size :D
@MrLondinese u have no idea what ur talking about...drive both..then i want to see u saying that again..haha...i work at volks/audi, and have driven both...no comparison..its even unbeliveble that this audi is so cheap, because the car quality is really comparable to a3s and even a4s...alfa mito? ur kidding right? please dont answer..
The reason behind that is Audi manufacture so few A1s.
I was told in my local Audi dealership that BWM manufacture 3 of their Minis for every A1.
The Mini is a common sight on British Roads and it's rare to see an A1 simply because its not built in large numbers.
Audi deliberately want the A1 to be seen as a up market alternative to the Mini and there is still a three month wait if you order a new A1 as there are so few around.
The Cooper and Cooper S is more expensive than certain A1 models.
I know because ive got the price list and have ordered a new A1 TDi. As for building 50,000 A1s that is probably for the whole of Europe because i have to wait until near the end of March 2012 until i take delivery.
My granddad works at Audi so he had the A1 home tonight, it is LOVELY. it's SO nice on the inside, and it is amazing how much space there is, there's more space than it looks possible for there to be, and it's clear that this is the A8's wee brother, as it has the same frosted glass style LED's outside and the same interior LED's, the same great multi-function steering wheel, and excellent HD graphics on the MMI screen. It runs smoothly and is comfortable to be in. Great wee car, they start bra
I love Audi a1!

I have compared both A1 and the Mini and the Audi build quality shines through in the A1.
The Mini is well put together but the A1 is s step up in quality as you would expect from Audi.

I think the BMW Mini will have had its day now that customers have a choice between this new A1 and say the Mini Cooper.
The layout of the Mini is poor and rear visibility in the convertible is shocking.
Ive sat in the new A1 and the build quality is remarkable.
The MIni is well made i know but the A1 is a significant step up in quality.
Pricing for both cars are quite similar but the A1 will no doubt retain more of its value.
Move over Mini the A1 has taken your crown.

@llandudnoboy seems like you were completely wrong, 20.000 A1 sold and 50.000 Minis sold last year

@MrYision
The reason for that is that for every three minis manufactured by BMW, Audi manufacture just one A1.
The Mini is a mass production vehicle, you only have to see how many are on our roads.
Outside Queensferry near Liverpool is a Mini only agent with nearly 180 cars new and second hand.
The Audi dealership on Anglesea has only three A1 and if you want a new one there is still a four months waiting list.
The A1 will always be a rare sight the BMW mini is everywhere.

@llandudnoboy In 2010 Audi built 50.000 A1 and sold 28.000. It's a nice car, but it's just too expensive.

@MrYision
And you call the BMW Mini cheap.
It's similarly priced to the A1 here in the Uk.
The Cooper and Cooper S is more expensive than certain A1 models.

I could have a new Mini in six weeks.

This A1 is full of clever kit, just like the A8. I guess this is the top of the range model. I don't like S tronic. I prefer a manual gearbox.
