[QUOTE="megan's diamond, post: 228192, member: 7665"] i guess i went through the same thought process... a4, s40, 1 series, or mini cooper s....it's used car for me though... my deductions are.... a4 - love at first sight....love at 2nd sight, 3rd n etc etc...but i test drive the 1.8T vs s40...no where near the s40...a4 really smell smoke....it's just so responsive but handling wise...i will say they are both at par....but the new s40 model is coming up next year, 2nd hand value plunge at ridiculous rate, maintenance kills...that's why the volvo tagline is "for life". when you own a volvo, you better keep it for life...underwise, you will just get pennies back when u decide to sell...hehe then came the mini cooper s...had the chance to ride it for a week...took it for a 200km/h spin...no sweat...a pleasure as i was on hols...but since it's a manual car...not too sure i am prepared for the daily ordeal thru city traffic on a daily basis...any minis without supercharge is just another car (sorry if i offend anyone!) so i started looking at the 1 series...kinda have to agree with tensai & mini jeff...i like the front, like the back, but don't like when the front is pieced together with the back....just couldn't bring myself to doit.... so right now...i am just looking for a easy way out...2-3year old e46...ok for handling, ok on 2nd hand value, ok on looks, ok for everything else....sacrifices sacrifices... hi everyone...i'm a newbie... :) cheers.
