159 Crosswagon: why don't we have these?

[Raddors]

Returned from a recent trip to The Netherlands, saw what looked on first glance like a modified 159 estate, on closer inspection badged as a Crosswagon Q4.

I know we get a Q4 variant but this looked bloody fantastic, so much better than any Audi Allroad/Octavia scout/Legacy Outback etc.

Anyone got any experience of them?

For a start it's a 156 not a 159..

Yeah, a 159 version would be subzero. Talking of which, here's my wife's Q4 - quite a Q car...

It was launched in 2004, LHD markets only. There was only one engine option, the first generation 1.9 JTD 16 valve Multijet engine with 150 hp.

I've owned a Sportwagon on which the Crosswagon was based, I would loved to have owned a Crosswagon and very much regret this car was not available in RHD.
