    I bought off these fellows before www.ma-motors.co.uk
    and they are going to take it back as a trade in as I want an automatic I have a stick at the mo.

    Thinking of getting a DSG VW but would prefer another audi.

    For an 05 or 06 VW 2.0 Diesel Se they are looking for 6 to 6.5 sterling

    for an Audi it will be 8-9000 sterling.

    Just doing the maths again for VRT.

    I dont know what Im getting for the trade, but they hope to give me aquote soon.

    Id like to sell privately (black leather audi 2002 a4 1.9 tdi 130 BHP 125k miles on clock, garrage serviced) but may not have the time.

    Avoid the Audi Multitronic autos, they have a bad reputation. Stick with DSG or conventional autos.

    I heard the DSG is the dogs and Multitronic run a mile.

    05 / 06 - Is there a huge difference between the quality / look of an Audi a4 versus a vw Passat ?

    Awaiting a quote now for a trade in on mine.

    They are quoting for their "new" car: Year 2005 - 2006 Automatic DSG

    Audi TDi 7 - 8K Sterling (circa 100 K miles on the clock ex Lease car)

    VW Passat TDi 6 - 6.5K Sterling (circa 100 K miles on the clock ex Lease car)

    Excellent body work / interior, if its anything like my current one.

    Full leather.

    What is a top spec car in euros worth?

    Im going to do the Maths soon. It has to be worth the journey, the last one was.

    A4 is the size of a golf the passat is bigger.

    I am over 6 foot and found the A4 notably smaller with no leg room in the back behind me, Passat was fine..

    He is right but it is a tad bit bigger than the golf:)....have a 05 audi myself and has yet have had no problems just the servicing....my girlfriend bought a 06 vw passsat sport and has a hell of alot more space than mine....fuel economy is better in the audi....but power ratios are similar enough(both are 2ltr tdi) which ever ya choose diesel wise i dont think they will let ya down but like the above say stick to the manual gearbox

    try ac autos enniskillen www.acautosenniskillen.com or www.usedcarsni.com
