nfbr Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 I was looking at them when I bought the Bora. The main problem with them was that they'd all done a million bloody miles. As and robust a car as they are, at higher mileage repair costs are quite high, especially if bushes start to go on the front end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitchell Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 still have mine and its the facelift s line 2,0 tdi 140bhp fully loaded bose etc cant shift it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Do it Craig, loved mine to bits and better looking than the golf. The only think that went wrong was a wheel bearing in the year or so I had it, did like a drink though (remapped 1.8t and quattro and tosser behind the wheel) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyW Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Is it not just swapping one slightly dull car for another (presumably newer) dull car. The S4 at least has the pretty meaty engine and sleeper looks going for it though. Unless you are super tight and/or can't be arsed refuelling often I don't really get why you'd swap your already diesel cor another equally diesel car with a slightly bigger load space.Unless of course you like that, in which case go for it!

MattyB Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Boss at work has an S4. Lovely V8. Not cheap though...the V8 Avants still go for £15k, and for 15k I'd probably get a B5 RS4 instead.I do like Audi estates, but I'd imagine you'd get bored of it fairly quickly - if I was in the estate mood, I'd be getting a 159 Sportwagon....guy on the Alfa forum has on lowered on 19s and it looks absolutely stunning. So good infact, that if they actually made a 159 with a decent engine, I'd take one over an RS4 without blinking...and I like RS4's! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only think that went wrong was a wheel bearing in the year or so I had it, did like a drink though (remapped 1.8t and quattro and tosser behind the wheel)see thats it , the golf i can live with it being a bit boring to drive, however im fed up of looking like everyother golf out there. i want the 130bhp diesil and map it up to about 170/180bhp as any more than that where i stay with the mud and rain is asking for a BIG accident. the number of times i almost binned the ibiza due to hitting rain on a muddy road and the front wheels spinning......
