New A3 5 door
 

I like the new Audi A3 2 litre FSI Sport. However, I've never liked 3 door
cars, and have been waiting for the 5 door version.

Speaking to an Audi sales rep last week, he mentioned that the 5 door version
has been delayed until late 2004. Asking why, he said it is going to be quite
different to the current A3; it was going to have a longer boot.

That sounds bad. I just want a new A3 with 5 doors. Can anyone confirm when
and what the new A3 5 door version will be?

Hmm, wonder what they mean by "longer boot" exactly.

I've seen many people comment that the new A3 looks just like the old
one, but frankly I couldn't disagree more. I love the look of the new
A3, but hated the old one, and the main thing I hated about it was the
protruding rear.

The way the rear end bulged out at the base of the rear screen never
appealed to me. I wonder if something similar to this is what they're
planning to bring back with the 5-door?
