Looks like I'll need to drive a Suby or two. Was looking to stay German with an Audi A3 or another VW but small car, AWD and manual gearbox... pick any two. I like the idea of a Golf R but the prospect of not having a sunroof bugs me as I use it nearly all the time in summer in preference to A/C.

Would love to try a small BMW but I don't love the 1-series 5-door's styling, we can't have a coupe, and it's RWD only which I may not want to foist on Mrs dienstuhr.

I think if we go with another VAG turbo we'll need to trade it before the warranty's up ;-)

Keep em coming boys!!

I traded in my VW Passat Wagon (v6) for the Subaru. Best choice I ever made. VW broke constantly and repairs weren't cheap.
