Not planning on hitting any poles, or anything for that matter, its a bit expensive to fix.

But I like Audi's safety record, and its a heavy car. After one of my friends where in a crash with his Audi 500, I got respect for Audi. He never wears a seatbelt and he hit a Ford Ranger on the side,as it turned in infront of him. He didn't even have a scrape on him, while then Ford was lying on its roof, both people inside unconscious. He would have driven the car home if the water and hydraulic oil didn't run out.
I always said that when I buy a car I'm going to buy what I want. By buying 2nd hand and saving up instead of financing the car, you get a lot more bang for your buck. If I brought a new car over 5 years, the only thing I could have gotten cheaper is a compact car like the Ford Figo, etc. Makes no sense to me.
The fuel consumption on the open road is not that bad, about 10l/100km. In city traffic its insane I have to agree. About 20l+/100km. I drive mainly open road, its doesn't bother me.
If you have any info brochures, please send them on. After spending this much on a car, I can't justify more money on it now, but I am interested. I would like a more free flow exhaust, without catalyst converters, it should give a bit more power and a V8 should sound like a V8. Not that it sounds bad in sport mode, but it can be better.
Saw that video on Youtube after I did a test drive and I was like "There goes my car!" Sadly here is no tunnels near me, would like to test that.
Guess my thread title suck, gonna change that.
