Default Audi S4/Scooby/Evo 4 or Cupra r???

Help,
I want a 4 door car again
So i am gonna sell the S3, i am looking at an S4/Scooby bugeye/Evo 4 or cupra r.

Now i drive about 15 - 18,000 miles a year and it will be my daily drive, but i also want a fast car.

Any ideas or comments will be appreciated as this is my 5th car in a year and i need to keep one this time.

Thanks
Nick

s4 would be fast and comfortable....

but if you do alot of miles how about a 5.30 diesel.... they're fast as hell and still probably do 45-50 mpg....

i wouldnt want an evo as a daily runner, 2 people i know had em and got rid as the ride is not for everyday.. unless you want all your fillings to fall out everytime you go over any bumps in the road at all

If I were in the situation you describe, personaly it would be a choice between the Leon Cupra R & the S4.

Have'ing covered a good few hundered miles across Europe on the way to the Nurburgring last year(as a passenger in 1), and a few laps around the Ring itself, I rate them highly.

Personaly I dont have any experience with the S4 but what I see I like.
Im sure the sound of the V6 let alone the power produced by the turbo's would make it a big hit in most peoples books.
My only reservation would be fuel/running costs!?

Mate,
Buy an S4, top build quality, nice spec, looks are understated so you dont draw attention to yourself .

Just make sure you buy a blue one.

I have also sent you a PM.

audi definatly, my mate from college had one his mate was lending him while he was working abroad. it was an S plate, had done 160k+ miles and still ran and drove like brand new. fucking lovely cars man, soooo comfy and smooth. we'd be sat on the M5 doing 120 on the way home and it felt like we were doing 60 across a sheet of glass.

DEFFO the S4!!
