[scotty]

I am looking to buy one of these two cars in the next week,but not 100% sure what to go for.

Any input welcome

am looking at a 2002 plate audi 100k full history sport model £5300
Thers a beemer silver 2003 130k full history sat nav Msport dont think i will get for less than £5800 the guy might not even go below 6K

Which is right at the top of my budget.

done a fare bit of research, but can never have enough input

suggestions and why you make them please,i know theres a few of you guy's that know your stuff on german motors aswell

Thanks in advance

Well, the BMW is 204bhp and has an extra cylinder. Fuel economy? Probably about the same for both vehicles.

Is the BMW the 6 speed version? I would assume so - Fantastic engine due to it's naturally balanced straight-6 configuration, and definitely worth a map!

Performance? BMW would win hands down.
Reliability? Draw
Fun Factor? BMW
Cheaper Insurance? Audi

I'm after a 330CD myself, but they're still a bit pricey for my liking - I'm currently driving a 57 plate 3-door (hatch) 120d (177). A nice car, but my mates 335d is so smooth I just can't help thinking that I need one! Which also has the same engine as the 330d but with twin-turbo configuration.

Ok, my bad. The Audi is a V6, not a 5 cylinder like I thought... still the BMW has a smoother engine by a long shot

You'd think the V6 would be smoother than the straight 6. I was in one of them Skoda Superb diesel V6's a while back, couldn't hear a peep from that engine, I understand it's pretty thirsty though.

What happened to the juggernaut you were driving mate?

scotty, still havent gt my handles...i think 2 months is a little bit long to wait for a set of handles dont u??

Hardley the place,to tell me shaun,but since you want air transactions on here,the two sets that i have sent have cost me as much in posting and time as what you payed for the bloody handles.

Never mind the the price of them.
