What will 18k get me?
I'm looking for something that can cruise as I'll be on the motorway a lot, but also something with a bit of power/fun.
I've been looking at BMW's even the BMW 730d M Sport .. but I just can't find what I want. Help :notworthy |
You could get a Jaguar XF r that's supercharged and it has 500bhp out of the box. If you hunt around you could possibly find an 11plate for that?
|
How about a 535d M Sport?

Winner.Lovely
|
Mmmm rs4
|
I adore the RS4 Avant but surely you wouldn't one as a motorway cruiser?! The high miles for servicing and fuel costs would be crippling.
|
15 to the gallon , everywhere
Pimmos rich anyway |
oh yeah I'm minted ...
Company covers fuel but I don't see them being willing for those motors :) |
also a 9 year old motor!!
(not that I mind running an "oldie" - my A4 is 15 years and 211k) but 18K does seem a lot for a 9 year old Audi Estate |

Petrol or derv, Mark?
A remapped 330/335/530/535 derv is a very quick car. Depends what size you want? My old 330d coupe with the DPF/EGR/swirl flaps gone was bloody good fun but frugal too! |
Not to mention illegal, LOL

Although a private sale, so I reckon turn up there with cash and make a silly offer |
If it was my 18K, I'd spend 5 or 6 of it on a well-maintained 10-year old 745li or Audi A8 lwb, and save the rest for fuel and servicing. Ridiculous amounts of toys on board, plus a good 350bhp through the rear or all four wheels to keep you moving along nicely, luxury bangernomics at its best ;)

Spec B Legacy - all the creature comforts, whisper quiet, and moves along with no effort required. AWD and a reasonable amount of power - although not in league with some of the marques stated on the thread.
Low miles, fraction of the price and will be up for sale soon. Attachment 35087 Attachment 35088 Attachment 35089 Attachment 35090 |
