Car Deal of the Day: Get the good life for less, with an Audi A3 at only £264 a month

The Audi A3 is an upmarket hatch that won’t cost the earth to run. It’s our Deal of the Day for September 12

  • Refined and comfortable to drive
  • Just £264.62 a month 

The Audi A3 is officially one of the nation’s best-selling cars, and this’ll come as no surprise when you see the level of quality and refinement that’s on offer from this premium hatchback.

Despite its upmarket credentials, though, the A3 is amazingly affordable right now. Take this deal from UK Carline Audi, which, via the Auto Express Find A Car service, means you can get your hands on one for only £264.62 per month.

This deal is a 24-month lease agreement that requires a £3,175.49 initial outlay. Mileage is limited to 5,000 a year.

At this price, you won’t be surprised to learn that you’ll be taking the keys to the entry-level Sport model. But as the Audi A3 is a premium choice, it still has kerb appeal in spades and is packed with plenty of luxury features.

The goodies include heated front seats, a 10.1-inch infotainment display with sat-nav and 3D mapping, a 12.3-inch full HD screen for the dials, 17-inch alloys, LED headlights, Audi Drive Select and three-zone climate control. Audi even throws in Park Assist with Parking System Plus, meaning the car can even park itself.

Power comes from one of the Volkswagen Group’s trusty 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engines. Packing 116bhp, it’s reasonably quick while remaining refined, just as you’d expect an Audi to be. Here, this engine is paired with a slick-shifting automatic gearbox. 

Unsurprisingly, the upmarket exterior design is matched inside. There’s a real premium feel, and plenty of space with a 380-litre boot in the back.
