A4 OR CC?

wtd2008

Hi lads,

I am looking for a bit of advice. I have a 08 A4, 2lt, 140bhp import with 222km, I really love the car but want a change after three years. An 11 CC has caught my eye for €23, 2lt, 140bhp.

The inside of the CC is very nice, leather seats etc but can't make my mind up.
A similar 2011 spec A4 is about €2k + more.

What do ye think? Another A4 or CC?

Thanks.

You already have an A4, try something new

An A4 is classes behind a CC in my opinion. Seems ludicrous to spend €2k more than you would on a CC on an A4.

As an audi driver, I would pick the cc.

VW never did it for me. Way overpriced, trying to be a premium car.

Audi for me but it's a matter of what you want at the end of the day of course. If we all like the same thing, there would be no fun arguments

Lol. Do you not get the irony in that statement?

You're a marketeers dream

Its not as if the Audi is AWD, or has a better engine, or a better stereo, or nicer seats, or is quieter, faster etc etc
Sure a top spec A4 might be better than a Passat Cc, but a sausage-and-chips model is nothing to get excited about.

Could you define what you mean by a bit better in every way because I'm genuinely at a loss as to how a front wheel drive sparcly equipped A4 is in anyway better than a top spec Passat CC to justify spending €2k plus more it?

Thankfully not everyone gives a **** what others think of them or wear a fur coat and no knickers but enjoy your basic Audi. I'm sure your peers think your awesome along with numerous Audi dealers.

How much would you get for the A4? 10 500?

I'd go for the cc nicer looking car I think anyway and not as common.

Hoping to get €10,500 for the A4 alright.

Ditto. There are so many A4's around I'd prefer to have something not so common

Every second car I see lately is a Passat though. Neither are very niche so not much difference on that score.

Speaking as someone that works with Audi - go for the CC - unless the A4 is top spec S Line in a decent engine (quattro) with all the toys the passat cc is a nicer option. Inside of the A4 is unfortunately dating a lot. Still looks nice on the outside.

What color is it? Is it the new shape?

wtd2008

It is Black Metallic, new version. Interested?

Will probably get modded for that!

Sorry mate. I should have taken it to pm. I'd be interested!

The OP is looking at a Passat CC not a regular Passat. Passat CCs are still relatively rare espeically compared to A4s.

+1.

I looked into buying one at one stage but went for something else instead, but anytime I see a CC around town, I always do a double take. Audi A4s, while a lovely car, are ten a penny.

I don't buy a car because I think that other people might like it. I buy a car that I will like myself.

The only time other people's opinions come into it is when it's time to sell.
