Audis are great, but they cost. Question is, are they cost-effective enough?

I like RS4 Saloon a lot! But I don't dig NA engines generally.

yes, you are,  :rolleyes: because:
1) you talk about it
2) you say things like "pay thru the nose"

Don't worry about it, it already happened, and you cannot change a thing.

Well technically, I was gutted but not any more, especially when I realised the fun I'd had in the last two months of ownership.

and with petrol prices coming down 40% I think I'm laughing :cool:
I'll believe that when I see it. Read in the paper on Saturday that supermarkets where dropping it to 99.9p but the massive tesco down the road from me is stil 106.9 :( along with everyone station in my area.

My local has been at 99.9 since last Thursday.. With me getting a nice average of 27mpg since calming down a little I think Im doing quite well.

As for when my car lease expires late next year, I will be in the market for a new car with no car to part ex. Sounds like it will be a perfect time to buy if things keep going the way they are :cool:

The only fly in your ointment R32 is that the leasing company's are currently paying very high interest rates to their lenders which is keeping prices steady  :sad:

It strange how many people have noticed that R32's are sat on forecourts not selling. Havent seen that happening at my 2 local dealers. Prices have remaind quite stable and seem to be shifting fine. Im hoping for a drop over the next year to be honest :lipsrsealed:

there was in Derby when i last went, i could have had a same age r32 for less than the ed30, that said my Notts dealer has had an nearly new Gti for months and have dropped the pice by 4k since they first advertised it  :shocked:

Yeah i seen that at derby vw also. I reckon when i went i saw 2 r32 around 14k 15k.

I really want one or a gti. Damm being 23 lol.
Diesel power all the way
