Let me hear it, I've found a nice, auto, forest green with audi 17's for sale near my place. It has 109,00kms. The polo is gone and i'm after something crusier.

10k ish, preferably less. Want an auto, medium to big. Nothing too normal..

An A6 is much larger than an A4.
I'd much prefer an A4 to a Passat also.

I don't like the V6 because it is an auto.
Best option is the 132kw quattro.

Because for $8500 you can buy a V8 quattro.
Had mine for a year and luvvin it!
Drive it sensibly and you can get 10-11 litres/100.
Drive it stupidly and you get that unique, metallic v8 howl that no six can produce!
The car is for sale on carpoint.
Do yourself a favour and enjoy it before we are all forced to drive Piouses!!

PS pm me if you want more info. I also have a string of 5 cyl Audis as well, so I'm biased!!

It's called an Audi V8 quattro.

They cleaned up in the seppo imsa(?) racing in the early nineties. (So the yanks banned 'em from racing.)

In the end I figured that when I'm in the position to buy a resonably new Audi, I'm gonna get one (2-3 years tops). For now I don't really need the potential drama of a 90's auto audi..
