Audi A1 Spy

Audi has gone the typical swirly exterior applique route with its upcoming new Mini-fighting A1 hatchback, but our intrepid spy photographers still managed to snap off a series of shots that show the premium little city car out and about undergoing shake-down testing.

We’re also a wee bit intrigued to see why Audi was so careful in concealing the area behind the side windows.
