Veryy hard decision, every car has its pros and cons, so it's all down to personal choice.

Don't know why they have used the 1-series coupe instead of the hatchback for this test

Very easy, 1-Series is my car here! Rwd is just too much fun, compared to fwd & awd!

I'm based in a country with 24/7 killing sun! And if for some reasons, I've to go in show, I'll get a X5!

It would be hard for me to decide between the Scirocco and the A3... both are cars I'd very much like to own. Voted for the Scirocco though.

Both cars are very good, the sirocco is much more stylish but it's lacking AWD, so I think I'm going to have to go for the A3

If I was to buy ant of these it would have to be the 125. It is the best looking by far in this bunch and the engine is really good. But, and there is a "but", for use in conditions like those in the test I would have to go for the Audi. Hard to beat 4WD in snow and ice.

1. A3 - best allrounder
2. Scirocco - best looking
3. 125 - still boring looking...

Since I've driven Coupe and its no different from my Hatchback, Im ready to try something new. I pick the Scirrocco.

The A3 have a boring design and I haven't driven a A3 yet which engaging to drive.

PS if it was 135i in this test then of course the bimmer.
