I know this forum will be slightly biased, but would like to know which i should choose.

I have roughly 20k to spend.

My requirements are:

- 4 doors
- smooth ride
- comfortable
- sunroof
- leather

I don't do a lot of driving but when i drive, i would like it to be comfortable =-)

Any comments welcome =) Thanks everyone!!

 

The key for me was when you said you don't do a lot of driving. If you're going to be doing a ton of driving, a Honda is always a good route to go. They are extremely reliable and not as expensive to repair.

But considering you said you won't do too much driving, go with the Audi. So much more fun to drive.

 

Do you want a car that is enjoyable to drive or just an appliance. If you want an appliance get the accord, no real maintenance but not enjoyable to drive. The A4 is moderate to high maintenance but very enjoyable to drive. Depends on weather or not you want your car to move your soul or not.

 

thanks guys

i've been reading up on the major CVT problems, which has put me off the audi a4 a little........ should i consider not the a4 b6?

 

If you get an Audi get one with Quattro, not the cvt. The cvt will fail for most owners, myself included.

 

Just find one with quattro, which quattro is worth it anyway, makes a huge difference in bad weather.

 

you mean the 3.0L semi auto quattro?

 

3.0 or 1.8T, either way as long as it's quattro, it's not CVT.

 

great thanks for the advice guys =)

 

Ummm.... You guys do know CVT is what Audi calls the automatic transmission right?

It has nothing to do with Quattro or non-Quattro.
