How about an A4 Avant 1.9 or 2.0 TDI?

Come on, just get the VRs.

And despite this going to be the workhorse car for a year I would rather do it in the skoda :whistle:

Good choice to stay away from the (Peter) Griffin, we have new Astra estate for running to the shops and delivering its hateful car :sick:
The Skoda's are good cars but it will be known as "Chuff's Skip" even if does'nt have a sun roof :grin:

The 2.8 is a smooth lump but not that quick, esp in a A6.
Also check the timing belt tensioner was replaced with the belts. I had one go on my A4 and it a whole front off the car job to get access to do it.
oh and the cam cover gaskets weep too.
Any hesitation on acceleration is likely sh!tty injectors.
