That was exactly my point - some people are only driving an Audi A3 because someone else is paying towards it. They would probably be like you and decide not to if they had to pay for it all themselves.
I'm one of those.
If it were my money,as opposed to the company's,you wouldn't see my anywhere near an Audi garage.
I could easily get more driving enjoyment for half what an A3 costs.
To be fair to Audi though,I wouldn't go for any £20K+ car if I were spending my own money.
Simply no need to spend that sort of dosh,IMO.
One can get new,or nearly new,cars of decent pedigree and spec for a LOT less.
I quite enjoy trawling the motoring press looking for bargains.
Many Audi owners will snear at the makes involved (Vauxhall,Ford etc.) but they're all decent motors,IMO.
I saw a brand new (pre-reg) Vectra ctdi (150bhp) in Sri trim for £11995 the other day,for example.
That's less than half what my A3 cost.
It's not half the car,no way.
I'm 39,BTW.
Until Saturday....
