Default Audis on vacation in Europe

So i am in Europe for the next little while, landed in Amsterdam and going through the parking lot at the airport = Audi overload. Engines and cars that I have not seen yet.

An S3 for example bright orange! An A5 with a 2.0TFSI Engine? A S5 V8 in this country. Gas here is 1.6 Euro which roughly converts to $2.30 cents per liter. There is a car out here that I have not been able to narrow down what it exactly is and having very limited access to internet cant really look it up as I did not bring my laptop here. But my guess is A1, A2? Maybe? Not sure it is a very compact vehicle that somewhat looks like a Yaris? I will try and figure out whaht engine it has and take a few photos. Most cars are debadged here and it makes you wonder whats under the hood. There was a B6 A4 with a1.6L Engine and another not 100% sure might have been B7 with a 1.9L engine. The gear ratios and HP must be toned down a lot as there is a lot of stop and go driving. By the sounds of the engine everything seems to be diesel but it isnt, they run 95 Octane as their regular fuel.

I am going to take a ton of photos and post them up here, hopefully hit up a dealership to see what exactly they got. Thats it for now from "Holland", take care guys!
