Thanks all

So many options, will go and talk to a few dealers, Audi, BMW and Merc and see exactly what options I have. Have decided it will be one of the three but I know Adz is going to look after me so probably wasting my time at the rest and will end up with a Merc.

May have to slum in it something I don't exactly want for a couple of years until the AMG becomes a reality. The CLA250 Sport could be the option to pass the time.

I haven't exactly driven in loads of euro luxury sport cars but if I had to pick a marquee I'd pick Audi over BMW or merc . Audi's are just sexy.

I have to agree, Audis look amazing on the outside, but once you get inside it's a completely different story. The ones I have been in felt cheap and plasticy.

I went straight from the Audi dealership to Mercedes, and the difference in quality is night and day.

Don't get me wrong, they're not to the cheap level of interior as subaru, but it reminded me of what you'd get in the commodore.

Good luck with your purchase though!

Ps. These are my personal opinions and observations, and should not influence the OPs decision.

WHat about a VW Passat? They come with a variety of engines, including diesels. The Passat CC looks mean

Just outside of your fuel consumption target but should tick the other boxes for rear seat space, luxury and performance (straight line at least)
2006 Audi S8 - Cars - Automotive Holdings Group Limited

Or there is this one, my personal favourite
2007 Audi RS4 quattro
p.s- plus will leave you 30K for mods...mmm

I should have mentioned I really don't want a vehicle older than 3/4 years old.

Thanks for those comments Goosey as I will also be looking at a New Audi S3, 0-100km is similar to the S4 (S3 5.0-5.4 sec, S4 5.0-5.1 sec which I assume it is all weight related with the S4 being 250kg heavier than the S4.

As I said above the end goal is the AMG, if I need to wait a few years I am happy to do so, I just need to find what fits for those couple of years
