Hi,

I'm now about to post something here that actually doesn't really belong here, but I just want your choice over this one...

what would you choose as a first car:

- '98 Honda Civic: 1.4 gasoline, Auto trans, aircon, cd-player,
silver-met.

OR

- +-'94 Audi 80 Avant: 1.9 TDI 90hp engine, manual 5-speed,
aircon, cd-player, dark couloured metallic, 'Avantgarde' (audi-
individual) wheels, bumpers and lowering.

The civic costs nothing, the Audi around $1500;
the civic is about $200 tax, the audi about $350 tax;
the civic is about $1000 insurance, the audi the same.
the civic consumes about 10litres/100km GASOLINE ($1.00/litre), the audi consumes about 6 litres/100km DIESEL ($0.70/litre)


I would pick the Audi, but I would like to know what you guys think.
It's actually for a friend of mine.

thx for any input,

best regards,

matteus.:incar:

Matteus, you're absolutely correct your question doesn't belong in the RS6 section so I moved it.

Also, there is no need to post in all the other forum as well... :eye:

Matteus,

First off...Welcome aboard!

Secondly...The Audi is the way to go..Just make sure it has had no accidents, full service history with the correct mileages at the correct intervals and it's a generally good, clean and tidy car.

Best of luck with your friend's decision.

:cheers:

thx for the input,

yes, the audi must have full service, and must be a very clean car.:0:
The civic has only 50.000kms, but it looks like it already has 150.000 in my opinion. The audi would have around 200.000kms, but this shouldn't be a problem if well kept.

greetzz,
