Did look at a A6 V6 TDI once and really liked it.

Have a Bora TDi Highline and it's great and well-equipped. Go for a 130 if you're not considering remapping as it's a good balance of speed & economy (and the 150 is only available in Sport trim). The Highlines have loads of kit and heated leather as standard. It also depends how big a car you need. I considered Audis but they won't fit on my drive.  :laugh:

yeah it really depends on what size car you're after first, big difference between the two. i'd have the a6 only if i had something smaller to chuck around too. the right bora  TDI can be a nice balance between the two??

The 2.5 TDI V6 only produced 153BHP.....poor in my eyes. 

But they are two very different cars.

Which 2.5 TDI are we talking about?  The 5-cylinder one or the V6?

Both 2.5s

Earlier one supposed to do epic MPG.

Both available with quattro.

quattro 2.5 TDI vs Bora TDI?  quattro every time.  More so if it's the five banger as it's a mint engine and more so again if it's the wagon as you can fit like, a whole antique dealer in the back or something.  And it looks much better than the saloon.

But then you might want to go hooning about the place, in which case the Borarse might suit better.
