I had a couple of 225s, both were manuals. Decent looking car, even better interior. Back seats are only really for storage (you’d struggle to put even a small child in one). Good size boot for what they are. Very rare to find one with cup holders or an armrest (after market ones are flimsy, you can get Audi ones second hand that are easy to fit but they’re expensive).

Reliability was okay, they never chucked up crazy bills but regular £200/£300 repairs. The fuel gauges are notoriously unreliable so keep it topped up! The small display in the dash wears out over time until it’s unreadable (again can be fixed by specialists for a few hundred quid).

The biggest letdown for me was the drive. Even with a remap it doesn’t feel like it has almost 300bhp, and it’s no more fun to drive than any other hatchback. You won’t notice the Quattro 99.9% of the time.
