i've just bought an audi s4 avant(estate) it replaces my 328i touring bmw which i thought was a nice car... but the audi is in a different league.. a bit juicier but worth every penny.If you're after an estate and not worried about the fuel (about 20 mpg about town.... 28mpg on a run and 7.9mpg on a trackday at snetterton lol) i'd go for one of these,or if fuel consumption is an issue i'd buy a passat or audi tdi....
