Inked Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 After 2.5 years of owning the Fiesta and 2 previous Fords (Puma 1.7 and Focus 1.8) I traded in at my local Audi dealership for a new A4 Black Edition 2.0l TDI. Couldn't be happier with it so far, hoping that I have more luck with this car than the Fiesta and that the 19" rims are a bit stronger than the 17" rims I had on the Ford.

You've made a good choice, since Audi is really good brand. Not the biggest fan of the A4, but the car looks nice! Anyway, were you disappointed with the Fiesta?

Anyway, were you disappointed with the Fiesta? Cheers, I really liked the Fiesta when we first bought it but as time went by I was getting more and frustrated with the few problems we had. It was also starting to feel a bit small and underpowered (being the older 90bhp engine didn't help). The A4 feels much safer to overtake in and is very comfortable for the type of journeys we do which are mainly motorway miles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the small and underpowered, I once again get it, since the 2.0 turbo that you have on the A4 is really nice one and also the size is far from the Fiesta.

All minor problems, seatbelt warning and engine management lights coming on, did go through three front wheels due to potholes. It was a shame cos overall the Fiesta is a really nice car. It was also a struggle for my OAP parents getting into the back when I was giving them lifts due to it being a three door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irononreverse Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 I ind getting anyone in the back of a three door car is a bit of a faff which is why I bought the five door model. Unfortunate to hear about your problems with the fiesta, but good choice on the Audi. Hopefully you'll get a lot of enjoyment out of it.

If there were minors then I feel relaxed because I've recently got mine two weeks ago. As for the interior size, no comparison between the Fiesta and the A4. :) If I am totally honest I bought the Fiesta because I wanted to get a new car, not because I was a Ford fan, that's why I hope I won't regret my choice. Enjoy your new car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
