Hi all, first of all sorry for the vague title I couldn't think of what else to put .
I'm looking into having another car in a few months, the current car is a 1998 A3 1.8T but me and the girlfriend are expecting our 2nd child at the end of the year.
I do like my A3 and I would like to keep it but it isn't practical for 2 kids as we only just manage with the one.
There's no way that I'm going to get a family box on wheels, I'd rather hand my driving license back to the DVLA before I do that .
Iv'e been looking at S4's like this one.
This one is going for £3995 which is more than affordable for me and the insurance is surprisingly low, only £80 a year more than the current car .
I just need to know a little more about them, obviously they are heavier on fuel which doesn't bother me, I'm guessing the road tax will be a lot more but there is a lot more room though.
Are they all 2.7 twin turbo or are there different sized engines/different turbo's?
What are the different engine codes if any and are some stronger than others?
Sorry for the life story and the daft questions, I haven't paid much attention to them before as I assumed the insurance would be ridiculous, any help is appreciated :icon_thumright:.
