Default What Car?

Audi A4 1.8t sport cabriolet or Saab 2.0ltr vector cabriolet, looking at an 04-05 plate Audi or an 04-55 plate Saab, the Audi is about 300 quid more a year insurance, your thoughts please ladies and gentlemen.

I wouldn't buy that year of Saab, General Motors had let their accountants get too close to Saab at that point at their build quality was nothing short of utter crap. My Aunty had a Hirsch performance Saab 9-3 and that pretty much reduced itself to its component parts in front of her house.

SAAB. Except for the small matter of them being likely to go the way of Rover. If you know a good mechanic, the Saab is a nicer car. If you like main dealers to do your servicing, you might be safer with the Audi. Although, obviously, you will then look like a c0ck.
