Audi A6 Quattro Black Edition 2.0 TDI or BMW 520D MSport

[ddsull]

Hi,
First time posting. Just looking for a bit of advice.
I’m looking at leasing a 520d touring M-Sport (I’ve signed up to the lease but have a 14 day cooling off period). However, I’ve also seen an Audi A6 Quattro Black Edition 2.0 TDI for exactly the same price (9+35, £317 a month).
The A6 is being changed this year (i.e. a new model coming out) but it does have 4x4 and bigger wheels (20” on Audi and 18” on BMW). The BMW is great car but rear wheel drive (can’t afford the x drive!). The BMW also had more modern kit, nicer inside etc and new model.
So what are the thoughts on the above.
Many thanks in advance.

I recently had a new 520d on test, it was fantastic, really enjoyed driving it.

I also ordered a few years ago a 3 series M Sport, had it delivered the month before the F30 model came out, i regretted it for the next 3 years as felt i should of waited for the new model.

A6 is a nice car, I've just come out of an A5, I found it screwed together better than my BMW but have gone back to BMW as they drive much better IMHO anyway

Thanks for the reply. Yeah, the A6 has been out since 2011. Nice spec though. Agree the 520 is a great car.

Those particular Audi wheels would be the deciding factor - if that's what does it for you then go for it! Lol

Sounds painful ha ha

BMW all day long. I had one leased that went back,awesome car,latest engine variant and tech. The Audi is long in the tooth now. Have a look at the mms screen,very low rent and not high definition. Front wheel drive as well.

I would also pick the BMW over the A6, it’s really too old now.

Cheers guys. Yeah that’s my plan. The AUDI was a Quattro though which would be the biggest plus. However, getting replaced soon so BMW it is!
Thanks again
