So a basic ecu tune gets your gen 1 A7 to around 400 German neddies and over 500 torques

Superchips will reprogram on your drive for £260 but probably not your drive in NZ....

But there will be someone local to you I am sure.

Hope that confuses you even more.

Most people don't know the difference between an a5 s line and an s5.........
But they will won't forget the a7....specially not this one

Or this one....

Hi Botch, 2018 on you are right, and it would piss me off too. Drilling through menus to change the temperature or turning off the music to use the voice control is just tech for techs sake.

Over in Blighty the first mainstream exponents of screens and no knobs was Peugeot.
That saved the dealers quite a lot of money as they didn't have to give you a bag to save the knobs in when they fell off on the first trip home from the dealers, nor buy industrial quantities of superglue to put them back on with....

However OP specifically states first generation

Plenty of buttons and knobs....and buttons...
