a valid point

but in the long run, i think you would lose more on the audi

my friends mum has a A6 V8 and it was almost 50k when it was new, its now only 5 years old and only worht a quarter of what it was.

i reckon in 3 years or so you would lose around 5k on that A3 at least

sell the FRS now and buy something like the focus TDCi, pocket the 5 grand difference and use that

plus the do better mpg than the A3, but have less power
