Title: Saying "BYE BYE"
Post by: martininwillerby on May 01, 2009, 07:54:20 pm
As you all know I am changing my car next month for a Audi A4 2.0T Quattro.

My GTI will be going in on the 7th of May (part of the deal).
They are giving me £11,100 for it as a trade price.
If you want it it's yours for the same amount, no offers.
The car is as it stands, It needs two new front tyres before it's MOT end of June.
Next service due end of June (4th service), TAX end of June...
Still a cheap car IMO.
Better than paying a dealer mark up.

Cheers and thanks again

I drove an A4 for a week and I hated it. The door handles are complex rich sophisticate lift-up type handles instead of proletariat pull-open handles. When your hands are full it makes a difference! I really enjoyed everything about the A4 but those door handles just turned every drive into misery. It's the first point of contact with the car!

I've got a new S4 to play with for a week soon - Supercharged V6 7-speed DSG quattro+diff etc. I'm absolutely sure I wouldn't want one though! I'll write and post a review afterwards.

I don't know yet what colour 'mine' will be - Audi do limited colours on the new S4. From pics, I think white looks the best. 'Mine' has been delayed a few days - DSG issue!

....Don't believe everything that journo's write. Yes, it's the very latest new V6 supercharged 7-speed DSG etc saloon. Hoping she's fixed in time for me this Saturday.

Looking forward to your thoughts on that then  8)

Yeh...

Looking forward to hearing what you think of it Mr RR...
I know you'll give us a good account...
I like to hear what you think of the 'Drive' with it been a big car.
As well as your thoughts on the new S Tronic 7 speed box.
And last of all Quattro.

I ended up going for the A4 as you know but with the 2.0T FSI engine, Quattro and S Tronic.
So all in all a very similar car, but bigger.

I'm looking forward to writing my review but it can't be that of a professional driver or motoring journalist and it is bound to have comparisons with my beloved and much modified GTI.

The 'bigger' car aspect is not likely to excite me and I'm not sure just how much I'll be a quattro fan as it may encourage me to drive faster, but I expect to enjoy the power and I'm very interested in the 7-speed version of S-tronic aka DSG.

It would be interesting for you to drive and compare the new S4 with your A4 version.
