Some SUVs feel like appliances. This 2013 Audi Q3 TFSI Quattro feels like a small luxury car that just happens to sit tall.
Silver paint, compact premium footprint, and that unmistakable Audi front end that still looks sharp a decade in. The kind of car you don't mind parallel-parking in Fitzroy, and the kind of car that behaves itself on the way home from Mount Hotham when the weather turns.
TFSI under the bonnet means turbocharged 2.0-litre petrol - eager when you ask and civilised when you don't. Quattro means all four wheels get a vote when you're pulling out of a wet Melbourne intersection, which is every Melbourne intersection in August.
S tronic 7-speed dual-clutch shuffles ratios without fuss, the cabin is tight in the Audi way (materials that age well, switches that click properly), and the 5-door layout swallows a Bunnings trip without making you feel like you're driving a hardware store.
At 82,000 km this Q3 is barely at the halfway point for a well-cared-for German SUV. One careful previous owner, roadworthy, registered, and ready to walk out the door today.
If you're the sort of buyer who wants the posture of an SUV without the fuel bill of something bigger, this is the pocket-sized German that gets it right - and our Nunawading showroom has been quietly matching cars like this to Melbourne owners for a while.
Last thing - people ask whether a 2013 Audi feels its age. Our honest read: it feels like a car built when Audi still gave a damn about interior knobs. Which, depending on your taste, is either a slight on modern touchscreens or a compliment. We know which one we'd call it.
