Here's an article from Autocar about it.

So its based on the old A4? I never drove one of those - are they good to drive? I agree with some of the feedback in that article, it could be old technology that might not be that good, with 2008 looks and prices to match. Perhaps thats what VW/Seat deserve for putting that moose of a car, the MK2 Toledo out.

 

[Leonidas]

I'd say its the mk3 your on about. I was a bit of a disaster. I read somewhere that they went from selling 80000 mk2's per year to 5000 when the mk3 came out.
Also, the Exeo is not a replacement for the Toledo. And on the old technology, its proven and they'll get new engines (common rail diesels and TSi petrol's)

looks too much like an A4 with new lights

there is a good reason for that.....

 

[m0rk]

there is a good reason for that.....

it's almost like the couldn't be bothered.....

 

[andyb]

again, there will be a reason for that....


A shame, they could have changed the exterior sheet metal. Wouldnt have been hard (and Audi have done this themselves between the previous two A4's).

 

[Leonidas]

I reckon that it will be a little different from that.
The door handles on this are Audi and I read somewhere that this was done in 2007. I reckon that the dynamic line will be in there somewhere. As it is though I'm buying one in red with a 2.0TDi 140bhp

Exeo will getting side lines similair to ibiza and tribu

The bonnet seems different to A4's at least
