Another what car...
Discussion
My wife has decided she isnt old enough to drive an estate, so the A4 is on the market.
Being the decisive type, there is no messing about with what she likes/doesnt like.
Must tick the following boxes:
4WD (muddy s
te lane)
No Estates
Not a fan of hatch backs
Thus coupe, or Saloon
Can be derv or petrol.
Min 6 cysls
Max 4-5 years old
Ideally in manufacturers warranty
Factory navigation and good spec, inc heated seats etc
At the moment, this is steering us towards TT coupe (V6), S4 saloon...
I quite liked the idea of a 335i, but this fails on drive, and also we dont really want 2 3 series on the drive.
Budget about £20k. Anyone with something that fits the above who is looking for a mint massive spec 3.0 tdi A4 avant, shout!
ideas?

If you're managing with the 320d, why does your wife's car need to be 4WD? I presume it's for snow so one of you can get out of the house at least?
Just to clarify, as far as I understand it, most of the 4WD cars mentioned here so far are FWD that bring in the rear wheels when grip is lost. That's ok though.
It's a shame they don't make the Celica GT4 anymore, but I guess the TT is a good call (although I know two people with TTs who struggled in the snow because of the low front bumper, and even on some rough back lanes which have grass and stuff in the middle of the road), or perhaps an Audi S3/S4?
And for a totally off the wall choice, how about you trade in the Audi for a 911 Carrera 4 and your wife has your 320d I guess you need the mpg of the BMW though?

Volvo do a nice V8 AWD saloon, S70 or something. Might be worth looking at.Being the decisive type, there is no messing about with what she likes/doesnt like.
