I've done some more driving!

BMW X5- Total crap

BMW 730d- Nice leather, poor ride, cheap plastic and wood that i doubt had ever seen a tree

Audi Q7- Not bad at all. Didn't like the knee-under-chin-to-operate parking brake.

Audi A8 4.0 TDI. 8) One "extended test drive that only ended when the fuel light came on! :lol: I look forward to driving the 4.2 in the next couple of weeks. :D

Careful if you order an Audi in the UK. They tend to change the price after you ordered and put your order for your 55K car back for 6 months in order to supply 'important clients first'.

Well, they succeeded. I won't order an Audi from Audi UK anymore. And I sure well never recommend them to anyone either.

Just reminds me why I've been driving Merc's since 12 years.

I recently even saw a bunch of powerfull scoobs and Evo's nearly being outdriven by a foreigner in an old man's S-class ! :rofl::rofl: :rofl:

So what's next, Chris? Sounds like the Audi doesn't make financial sense at all :( BTW... when will we see you out on an event? Would be nice to see what you turn up in! :wink:

Well at the moment it's the Forester, unless i can find an A8 for sensible money...

Drove a few of them. To me one of the nicest 4x4's. Nicer than its brother Cayenne.

I wouldn't be scared of looking for a 3.2 V6. Underrated and going for low prices. I quite liked the sound of that V6. Went reasonably well even.

You tried the Pheaton already ? If you liked the A8 and the Touareg, you sure will like the Pheaton. Try it as V8. One amazing machine for no money ! 8)

I know, you keep suggesting the Pheaton. I'll try to convince myself, i can tell they're not selling well at the moment, 3.3% APR on the VW website! :shock:
