Hiya, Im a newbie just wanting some opinions really please, Ive seen a gorgeous A3 1.6 FSI sport - lava grey, 05 plate 22,400 miles, or a Golf, 56 plate 1.6 FSI match, reflex silver, 15,000 miles (500 cheaper) and Im completely torn between which I want!!!

We have an X reg golf at the moment and Ive been told Audis cost a lot more to repair, is that correct?, do I go for the gorgeous A3 with a few scuffs etc inside & out, including a felt tip pen mark on the roof lining, or an 18mth newer car still in warrantly, still gorgeous, with all the odds and sods on it etc etc and a couple of minor marks but nothing to cry home about, help??? which would you buy?

Ps Hubbies father works for volkswagon so when audi year warrantys finished it would probably be serviced there, so would the parts etc be much more than were used to paying with our present golf.

Also the Audi doesnt seem to have a lot of pull in it ie when I put my foot down it doesnt just whoosh, great speed but wouldnt give me a lot of confidence for example if overtaking, is this normal?

Any comments would be appreciated, thanks in advance,
