Hi guys i know it's not an lc question but i need some help here
After driving around in 3 door polo diesel for last 10 yrs the wife and daughter have given me an ultimetum on buying them a decent newish 4 door saloon and after much disscusions they have decided to go for an 08 or later audi A4,my inclination would be to go for an auto but after reading some horror stories about the multitronic box and the habit of the newer diesel engines to go bad i am having some doubts
My question is that do audi do an ordinary auto and if not are the m/tronic as bad as they say and also would i be better of just buying the pre 08 model which had the older vag diesels
they also delibrated about the bmw 3 but chose the Audi for it's looks.
Frankly if i had to choose i would go for something that gave me the most value for my money but you how it is(badge snoberry comes to mind) with women.
Thanks in advance
looking forward to any input, specially from somebody who owns/works on this brand.
