New: Recommend a New Car or just moan about random cars 🙄

I’ll go to hell for this, but I quite like the look of that.

TBF, it’s not the ugliest Audi by some margin.

freefallrob · 25 November 2018 20:22

I have to say I quite like it too…

Craig · 29 November 2018 16:12

They said they’re not now gonna make it

I can see the point of it, though what I found more interest in was the initial interest in producing this INSTEAD OF the TT coupe / convertible because of falling demand.

Really? People in the market for a TT ragtop would rather have a 4 door Coupe thingie?

(And yeah, I’d have had happily one too )

browellm · 29 November 2018 17:16

That surprises me. I hold Audi responsible for kicking off all these niche-within-a-niche sub-classes and now they’re getting cold feet? Pah!

Shame, possibly the only audi ive looked at in the last 20yrs and genuinely liked / would consider driving.

Nearly as stupid as a 4 door Porker

its getting close to decision time… shortlist so far (in no particular order):

Another Macan, perhaps the GTS version and not the Turbo one…
Ghibli
and strangely, the Volvo XC60, twin engined hybrid - which would suit my commute… and save me money.

browellm · 3 April 2019 08:32

Looking at new?

Beobloke · 3 April 2019 09:10

Ghibli.

The other two just scream “I know nothing about cars”

ICHM · 3 April 2019 09:15

Urgh.

browellm · 3 April 2019 09:22

Ha, I really like that.

ICHM · 3 April 2019 09:24

I am not sure if it’s the curry shit brown or the tyre mark seats pads, but it’s feckin’ horrible.

crimsondonkey · 3 April 2019 11:52

Volvo SUV FTW

anon14766838 · 3 April 2019 15:36

Just back from Volvo

Well the XC60 T8 Hybrid Inscription, tuned by Polestar is a rather nice place to be. It off the mark it feels just as quick as my Macan Turbo, although the handling isn’t quite as tight. Cabin is a much nicer place than the Macan, but it doesn’t sound like a Porsche…It is about £200 less per month than the existing car. Certainly food for thought.

Next stop Ghibli land…although I prefer the driving position of an SUV. Ghibli is 300mm longer than the Macan, so it’ll just about fit in my garage.

Jim · 3 April 2019 16:02

Which Ghibli…the V8?

Professor_Chaos · 3 April 2019 16:02

That’s racialism.

Oh wait, this is a car thread. That’s actually quite fucking sensible.

anon14766838 · 3 April 2019 16:03

unless I am mistaken, they dont do one in their current lineup?

browellm · 3 April 2019 16:08

Interesting. I’ve also found the Volvo interiors to be a refreshing change and high quality.

Are you also going to look at a Levante? They had some very aggressive finance offers knocking about on these, recently.

MGOwner · 3 April 2019 16:14

To match their very aggressive grill
