ed35 or just a Gti...
« on: 06 January 2012, 18:11 »
Bit of a dilema...i currently got an A4 avant black edition 140bhp diesel in white, swapped a 10 plate s3 sportback in the hunt for saving a few pennies, i only do around 9000 miles a year at most so although not a massive saving it is still nice only paying half the fuel costs approx of the S3. Been looking at trying to do a deal on a new gti 35 but just working out to expensive so what are peoples thoughts on the gti and 35 i would def want xenon's so even with discounts i wont be far away from 35 prices.
Just after peoples thoughts really as the mrs is fed up of new car talk!!!!

If your looking at buying new you'd be daft not to go for a 35 imo, especially if you want xenons as well. Whats up with the A4? It can't be that old if it's a black edition? :huh:

Not old at all, 11 plate so about 9 months or so, tbh i just get itchy feet and swap normally around this time, the right thing to do is keep what i have untill at least later this year. The a4 looks real smart and isn't as slow as the 140bhp would suggest once on the move also great spec.

keep telling myself stop going on tinternet and looking at sites like this!!!

I'm going to be totally predictable and say an Edition 35, purely because of the std spec.

This is probably going to sound stupid, but if you have looked at the deals and feel that it is too expensive, then why  change?

Why not retro fit xenons to your A4, and drive around in that until you can actually afford the car you really want?
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

Why change ever...see what you mean but could afford just dont really want to spend £440+ a month  an a car!!! thats a lot of money, the A4 has xenons, aslo has bang & olfsun stereo, leather 19" wheels heated seats etc etc more spec than you could want  really, big thing is it isn't an S3 or gti!!!
