i'll only say it's not gay, if you tow my pug to the ring

Rhys

Anyone got any inputs now, as might go and see one tomorrow (if in any fit state after Rugby).

Are they boring to drive? problems etc.....

'Personally' i'd rather go for an E46 convertible that the A4... the audi's do drive nice dont get me wrong, but you get up to any decent speed and i find the roof a bit flappy!

330d convertible

Rhys

330d convertible are way out of my price range... as they are still fetching 23k+

Never been in the Audi convert. SO havent a clue what they are like, and seen a 2.5 TDI with good mileage for good price. SO may be tempted to go and look at it tomorrow.


Its just doing ym head in waiting for 330d sport

Maria.

i am still keeping an eye out for you fella!!!!

But there are none with the new engine with the kinda spec you want!!

Sorry! I do check every day though!!

Had a S4 version for a short time and found that it suffered from bad scuttle shake.

Rhys

AH is it? THats one thing that has put my of convertibles of old. But thought modern BMW and Audi mights have cured that.


Thanks Maria appreciate it! Money is burning a hole in my pocket atm Plus i dont like driving the Mondeo about, especially when the weather is nice

northerner

As a cruiser, its great but suffered from interior wind swirl when the hood was down.

The scuttle shake was prominent when driving over poor road surfaces or booting it.

However, its the only 4 seater convertible i've driven so have nothing else to compare it to.

jr

horrible cars, and i work for audi

rattle like fuck, overpriced, loads of issues

Rhys

Have been reading up and see they suffered from a few problems Hmmm

Rhys I had a '03 A4 2.5 TDI convertible last year for about 3 months, to be honest I quite liked it, was quick and very economical, also the general feel of the car was pretty good, I enjoyed the driving experience, took it on the motorway a few times and it was awesome on fuel and just felt very comfortable at high speed, didnt really get the scuttle shake all seem to be going on about but did suffer a little interior wind swirl, but when the suns out and the roofs down...who cares

Oh by the way my brother has a 330ci convertible at the moment and thats just lovely..did I mention its for sale

My mate has a 3.0L convertible, think it's a 54 plate.

Nice enough car, his is dark grey with 19" RS6 wheels and looks the part.

He does say though that the handling isn't ideal being a cab.. but then again it's a fookin cabrio, you should be posing not setting lap records!

He's got a brand new S4 hard top at the moment and did comment that his cab with the same power would be a recipe for disaster.

He was selling it

Rhys

Thanks TABZ, sounds ok.. Think i need to go and test drive one as i have never been in one let alone drive one!

PM details of your bros 330

Rhys

lol James about the the power in the cab.

Yeah im not lookin to something i can go on track with. Just something thats a nice cruiser really. As why do you want to go fast in a CAb, me i just want to waft along enjoying roof down in the Sun
