Hi guys,
My first post here as im looking into a new car.
In the past ive have a focus ST 225, now ive had to save for a house with my lovely lady i have a VW GTTDI Golf 130bhp Remapped to 185bhp.
I have to say i was a little sceptical coming from a 2.5 litre turbo petrol but i love my deisel! hell of alot of grunt for a little car.
Now thinking of family cards and ones big enough for all our needs ect, im looking at an A4 estate. Im trying to find a good all rounder that can still put a good smile on my face on the drive to work.
the A4 Quattro TDI 170 estate seems a good bet. Audis usual high quality (had Audi in the past) TDI so not too bad on fuel and remapped i see they go to around 215bhp with a heap of torque thrown in.
Im just wondering if anyone knows of any issues (im still going through the site looking at every bit of info i can fine but also if people say its worth doing? i was shocked at the difference it made to my golf and think the A4 running 215bhp would not even do badly against the likes of a focus ST.
This way I still have a fun car but my ladys hapy too! also it only adds around £20 to my insurance!
Any info is welcome and any reports off anyone that has done this to an A4!
Also as a side note - Quattro....worth it?
Thanks guys!
Stephen
