AUDI has rationalised its A2 range by dropping the two more powerful variants and upgrading the equipment on the petrol and diesel 1.4-litre models.

The new A2 Special Edition models have electronic climate control and a CD/radio over the previous base specification cars and are priced at £12,715 on-the-road for the 1.4-litre petrol model and £13,695 for the 74bhp 1.4 TDI.

Standard equipment also includes 15-inch alloy wheels, electric front windows and remote central locking. All options currently available in the A2 range are available on the Special Edition model.
