FINAL REPORT
Darren appreciated his Q2’s blend of a classy interior and lower running costs
IN THE 2017 film Downsizing, Matt Damon’s character decides to shrink himself in an effort to live more sustainably and make his money go further without compromising on the creature comforts that he’s become used to. And I embarked on a similar experiment with my Audi Q2.
When I started running it, I’d just come out of a full-fat Range Rover. But while I wanted to reduce my running costs – as well as the stress of trying to park on increasingly crowded streets – I also wanted to retain the sort of luxury I’d enjoyed with the larger car. So, did I manage to have my cake and eat it by choosing Audi’s smallest SUV?
