She doesn't like them its the tartan seats that get her I would happily have her in a GTD/E/I but no

yeah its about £1k more than what I have been looking at but spec wise its best I have seen in my search and it will come with Merc warranty too - not overly important but I guess with it being Merc and NI, its hiking the price up. If it isn't a good deal for us then we can walk. Will be genuinely sad to see the Q5 go as I love it. If I could afford too, I would keep it as my daily and take the S3 off the road for weekends/good days/track/etc...

I think if bothering to pay more for a dealer over private a main dealer is the only way to go on something normal, small independent dealers don’t want to know if something goes wrong. Especially when its your main family car it gives a bit of peace of mind.

What women want....

Personally I do like them and if I had given her free reign, god knows what she would choose. Can also add wee bits and pieces to them from the likes of the A250/35/45 which make subtle differences. I do think the black wheels are making it look "dull" and I am not normally a fan of them anyway but its a minor detal.

Happy wife, happy life eh bud?

Looks a decent enough car, but yeah maybe a bit expensive for what it is. Can't really speak given the price I've paid for this newer A4.

• Bit pricier than we want
• Not an A220 (but decided to include the A200 for more options and only difference between the two is power and a map can sort that)
• Manual (not a deal breaker, she is in a manual currently and happy enough)
• No Harmon Kardon speakers (tbh quite a rare option I have found)

But...

• Local
• Keyless
• Merc Warranty
• Grey
• Pan Roof
• Electric Seats
• Within mileage
• Carplay option (maybe) and cruise control

My bother in law has a lovely CLA220 AMG line that he’s gonna be selling soon if that’s of any interest. Nicer looking option than above

My wife doesn’t drive and has no interest in it, maybe that’s the answer.

The only thing she asks when I’m buying a new car, is does it have heated seats

Beyond that she really couldn’t care less.

CLA is lovely, especially the estate

She doesn't like saloons

Surprised she married me tbh based on how fussy she is

My wife’s the same but when I start looking at cars she’s starts giving off that there’s nothing wrong with the car we’ve got

She really does seem them like white goods.

Mine tuts and says "Is it wile loud again?". Fair to say we are chalk and cheese when it comes to cars lol

100%. Buying anything German of that age without main dealer warranty is financial suicide.

My wife knows that cars have been “my thing” since I was a kid, so she doesn’t say that much to be honest. Just drives her mad when I take the notion to change it, and that’s all I talk about

 

[Boydie]

Just drives her mad?

 

[Chris100]

Just drives her mad?

I only change my car every 3 years or so, I can take a bit of complaining for a week. And to be honest if I didn’t mention it and just turn up with a new car she wouldn’t care less.

 

[Boydie]

Never mind the A Class sold there this morning by another sales guy

Back to the search

 

[Coog]

lol at all this wife consulting business when getting new cars.

I mess. If it’s the easy life… fair nuf. Most them are absolutely mental

 

[gary1365]

Tbf when I bought the Passat I came home and told her I’d bought the car she was more concerned that the fiat was the car we brought the baby home with.

For what’s supposed to be a family car the 500l was terrible. To fit a baby seat in you either had to slide the rear seats all the way back and have no space for a pram in the boot. If I slid the front seat forward I couldn’t see past the wife’s big head

 

[NickR]

I've reduced the price of this and can be talked to when viewed. I'd also consider a part exchange for a nice estate/SUV for up to around £17000. Cash either way.

I bought a new driver yesterday, came home and told her "I bought something silly"

She said "what car did you buy?"

Granted, last time I said that I came home with a Cayman
