How much are they? :suss:

by **The Swede** » Sun Oct 29, 2006 6:22 pm

A lot as you'll have to go for a new one.

But a second hand E55 Kompressor (500bhp and 515lbft) should be reasonable I assume.

Black one !

Any recent testdrives, Chris ?

If you wait for a bit longer still, you'll be old enough to go and testdrive a C6 :lol:

I'm going to call the Scooby dealers tomorrow to see if they have the Spec B and the Tribeca in for Saturday. I've driven both but Lisa wants a go.

I have to say if we do change the Spec B is top of my list (as i don't think that the VW Toerag won't fit in the garage :roll:

).

by **The Swede** » Tue Nov 14, 2006 10:11 pm

I thought that shed of yours was pretty big :wink:

Spec B is nice, but very thristy.

Have you ever considered a BMW 535d otherwise ? Sure a beemer image. But there are nice BMW drivers, see mrs Bro.

The auto is meant to be a lot better and the MY07 car has switchablr ECU settings.

The car's now doing around 80 miles a week so i can probably relax the economy part of the search a little.

The shed will hold around 8 cars but it's about a mile away from where i live; too far to walk for the car each morning!

So if you don't need economy anymore... you can get a Phaeton V8 or an Audi RS4 :woohoo:

I could do. The VW dealer said the staff at the garage all felt like they needed a peaked cap to drive the Phaeton...

The RS4 would mean dealing with Audi again...

I've seen the resale figures on the Spec B, it loses about

by **The Swede** » Tue Nov 14, 2006 10:43 pm

Who cares what image you got?

I say the Phaeton is one nice piece of technology.

Plus, there is no reason to drive such a car like grandad.

by **Houdini** » Wed Nov 15, 2006 12:04 am

Double vote for the Phaeton - an excellent purchase option.

by **The Swede** » Wed Nov 15, 2006 7:35 am

I feel a poll coming. Chris has been looking for a car for too long.

Just remembered, the Phaeton won't fit in the garage so that's out.

Looking like a spec B. Now do i go salon or wagon?

Good thinking. I may well look into those.

I currently have a Spec B wagon sitting outside the house. :mrgreen:

by **chris** » Sat Nov 18, 2006 7:55 pm

Piccie of the Spec B Culverwells kindly lent me for the day.

I think i'll have a MY07 in black the spec seems very good and the thirst wasn't too bad, we averaged just under 25mpg with a mixture of driving.

Did the Spec B not have a small scoop normally ??

Tht'd be the GTB and the RSK, both JDM cars.

by **chris** » Sun Nov 19, 2006 6:23 pm

The next question is, do i go for a wagon or the salon? :lol:

Simple answer: How quickly do you plan to get your wife pregnant ?
