New gen Qashqai Tekna or Audi A3 Sportsback - which?!

New generation Qashqai Tekna or Audi A3 sportsback S-Line. (both diesel, 1.6 versions, used - probably 2013/4 models)

After spending what seems like an age deciding on what car to get I've narrowed it down to these two. Now, I know they are very different and both meet my needs in different ways.

The new Qashqai has a lot of nifty features, there's no doubt I'd be very comfortable and enjoy the drive. There's park assist, reversing cameras, a new suspension for bumps, adjustable lumber support.... (lots to go wrong lol) It's slightly bigger than I might of liked... I sold my x-trail to downsize!!!

I love driving the A3 too. Not as many gadgets tho in my price range. Perfect size. MPG better than the Qashqai. I'll be doing over 12k per year.

I plan to keep the car for some years so want to get this right. I know ultimately it's down to me, but any words of wisdom please!! Would love to hear from any Audi owners too.

TIA

Buy the Skoda version of the A3 it will be more reliable...

I looked at your post and the two you have shortlisted have virtually nothing in common. I'm confused.

I've already acknowledged that!! I'm confused too. Hence why I posted for some wise words, thoughts etc.
