Best car from these 3?F92,C Class or A5.

[Diddle1]

I have about £11k to spend on a coupe.Have narrowed it down to these simply because of how they look.These are just random pictures rather than the exact car.

2012 320d or 320i



2012 C Class



2012 A5




All of them will be lower powered models because my insurance will be high and i will only be sitting in London traffic anyway.

My favourite of the 3 is the 3 series.One of the nicest looking cars i have seen.It's the one i would go for but have read that there was problems with the timing chain.Does that apply to all models?Just how common is it?Was gutted to read that as i have wanted one since i first seen them.

A quick Google suggests there wasn't really any major problems with the other 2.The Merc is my second favourite looks wise.The Audi seems like it would be the cheapest to run.

Which should i go for?

If you're going to be driving in London be aware that you might not want a diesel of that age especially if you drive within the North & South Circular, so go for the petrol.

Have you perhaps considered a 1 series coupe like this? http://www.uskcarcompany.co.uk/listings/bmw-1-seri...

With £1-2k spent on it ive fallen in love with mine all it really needs though is a new headunit, remap and depo headlights.

seems to be a car you don't see many of on the road either which is nice.
