The engine is sorting else, compared to something like an A3 170 Quattro diesel it's in a different league. I think I've mentioned elsewhere that I back to back test drove a 120d F20 and a coupe (old vs new gen engine) and the cars are night and day. The F20 Feels more responsive, lighter and agile; so yeah really pleased with this one!!
Glad to hear this! I heard before that the gearbox improves doing km! And I also heard that his engine was far above the VAG group one!

Thanks man! Enjoy it
