Well then chaps, as you'd probably relised by now i'm am a bit biased towards petrol power with the internal combustion engine in what ever form that may take.
I don't mind diesels , I have had a few in the past, but never really found them to have that something special if you get my drift.
The last diesel I tried that was a bit nippy was an A6 Quattro Allroad that west London audi let me have for a few weeks whilst they fixed my old bus, and I must say it was a nice car.
Now I still have this almost new A4 2.0tdi s-line avant and after a week its is growing on me, for a 2.0tdi it does really fly, now its not on par with my old bus but If I was thinking of changing sides to the oil burner brigade again this would be a good reason .
I don't really like the overall styling to be honest of the car and that applies to 99% of most audis now and other brands but from a performance and driving viewpoint it is a nice car, stick it in dynamic mode and its away like a scolded cat...lol.
So still stuck with it for another week and by next Monday it will have probably grown on me even more, by then would it have swung my mind, probably yes, would I buy one , probably no but that's down to styling etc but the engine is great.
with all this info to hand now i'm almost inclined to look again at a well sort B7 oil burner avant ,not to replace the trusty tfsi old bus but to use as an alternative.
