why not take a td of the new c as well? its got 170bhp. BUT.. you seem to have made up for mind for the a4.

. i would take that too with the s-line kit and all.

Since you already have experience of the Audi, why not try the BMW this time?? IMO with their maintenance package it's a really sweet deal & hey, you won't have a new model replacing your "New" car in a few months time!

BMW has no stocks now & no discounts

they are talking of Feb Mid or End for stocks to arrive. Maybe I should try finding a 2007 model 320d in the used car market

Many congrats for the new ride. Drive Safe & yes, pics please

mobike008 · 31st January 2008, 12:50

Congrats Ricky for the A4. Hope the color that you have chosen is White. It looks a killer in white. And, then change them to 17" black rims, there you will have an exclusivity hard to beat in entire Gurgaon or is it Delhi area?

Ricky_63 · 31st January 2008, 14:07

AUDI = EXCLUSIVITY

So I believe LOL LOL

Totally agree, as for the rims & all :-( not yet. As you may agree I am not going to risk the warranty....Y E T

Cheers

Audi does have the exclusivity factor going for it. If you can opt for the S-line , that would be absolute killer.

IMO, BMW's have started looking like they are made by Koreans!!

Happy purchasing. Good-luck
