Audi Security is lauded yet again in Thatcham

Six Audi models have today been the recipients of coveted category trophies in the British Insurance Vehicle Security Awards, held at the Motor Insurance Repair Research Centre in Thatcham, Berkshire.

As usual the judges used the New Vehicle Security
Assessment (NVSA) process to assign NVSR star ratings to vehicles based on 'theft of' and 'theft from' protection. The new Q3 compact SUV has undergone the process for the first time this year, and has come through with flying colours, achieving the top rating in the compact SUV category. The four other winners were already members of the Thatcham hall of fame and have remained at the top of their game - they include the A1 premium subcompact, the A4 compact executive, the A5 Cabriolet, the Q5 mid-size SUV and the A8 L W12 high performance luxury saloon.

"I'm delighted to see so many Audi ranges emerging from the rigorous Thatcham judging process with top marks - in most cases our cars are second only to our homes in terms of the investment we make in them, and these awards prove that Audi takes the same absolutely uncompromising approach to protection of that investment as it does to every other aspect of vehicle development," said Director of Audi UK Martin Sander.

Peter Shaw, Chief Executive of Thatcham, also added his take on proceedings, "Audi has regularly featured among the top performers at the vehicle security awards and with six separate category winners in 2012, this year is no exception. Audi has once again demonstrated an unswerving commitment to keeping its customers safe and secure, no matter what class of vehicle they drive."
