Audi or Dacia

[thinfourth2]

Okay you have £13500 pounds handed to you

Option 1


For yourself
and

For your mate/wife/girlfriend/nanny
with a grand left over to install a stereo in each

Option 2

A poverty spec Audi A1




Option 3



For yourself

and

£7500 off the mortgage


Oh and an option 4 for those too stupid to understand the question

[m8rky]

I assume I can use the cash to get something for the weekend?

[anonymous-user]

E46 M3 CSL is always the correct answer isn't it?

No? Well 1 Dacia and the cash in a sports holdall please.

[Mastodon2]

I'd take a non-knackered barge for the same price as a knackered one and take the rest of the cash.

[6fire]

mortgage, mortgage, mortgage.
But I'd take option 4. An old shed and £12k off the mortgage.

You will need the 7.5k to drown your sorrows after driving a Sondero...woeful

[Dave Hedgehog]

B5 RS4

[Speed addicted]

Surely the only sensible option would be an MX-5?

[y2blade]

Dacia + ££££s

Yes. MX-5.

You could have both?

[kiteless]

A nice wafty barge from the 80's + 5k into the bork pot + 5k off the mortgage.

Job - as they say - jobbed

1no Dacia for me, and £7500 to either do up the Triumph, or buy another barge, so I would have a fleet of 3 cars and a motorcycle (which I could also restore.) I'm not a badge snob. I would have a large RWD barge with a multi cylinder engine, even if it came with, I dunno, a Dacia badge. Whoever it was who was prattling on about the Audi A1 in the other thread really does belong in the knob thread.

[F1GTRUeno]

I fail to see how it's even a question.

If you were after an A1, or had the money for an A1 or something similar you'd never, ever consider the Dacia.

If you had the money for the Dacia then you wouldn't be able to afford the A1.

What if you could afford a Dacia, or an R8? What if you could afford a Veyron? Perhaps money is irrelevant, I'd rather buy the Dacia than spend twice the money on a crap Audi mini hatch. It might be a "better" car than the Dacia, but it's nowhere near as good VFM, nor is it even close to competing with what 14k will get you on the used market.

I have enough money sat in savings to buy about 4 Dacias

I drive a crappy old micra

I have better things planned for the cash
