Default How light is the A3 steering when parking?

How do you rate the A3 steering wheel effort required when standstill or parking? Can you compare it to other cars that you know well, MB, BMW, Volvo, etc.? -please state model-

I've not driven the other cars but the new A3's have servotronic steering. That means they are very light to turn at slow speeds and stiffen up the faster you go. Have you test driven yet?

Yeah it is lighter though than most cars. A lot of people are adjusting the amount of assistance via a Vag-Com.
