Daily Driver

[robert weinberg]

bernie, i drive about 22,000-25,000/year. i am learning, but at this point am 
not able to do anything more than simple repairs to the car. and i bought it 
with relatively low miles (110k at the time) - racking the odometer up to sit in 
traffic 3 hours a day wasn't my vision for buying the car.

couple that with the fact that i love my wife to death, but she spazzes out with 
a stick shift - and i want a car that we can both drive - especially being her 
A4 has 215k on the clock.

but you are right - the 200q20v is a hell of a ride! i'd just rather save it for 
more enjoyable occasions.

Regards,
Robby

If one has a 200Q20V in good condition why would he look any further  
for a DD? One of the most reliable, long
lasting, and lowest cost of ownership cars that I’ve owned. Why  
suffer daily sitting in junk?
