Ditto.

When I started looking at Quattros, I looked at a 90Q20V, and a 100/200Q.
I decided that as my only car, the 90Q was too small, so I got the 100Q.

I do a lot of long distance travelling, with skis and luggage, and wanted
the room to stretch out.  Now that I've added several new members to the
family (wife, kid, dog), we really appreciate the space.

However, as a second car, Angela's 90Q20V is a very worthwhile addition.
It's a little classier than my older 100Q, and nice for 2-3 people to
jaunt out to dinner. She also likes it better for city driving (she
won't take my car into the city).


I guess it's time to wander down to A.E. Park and take a look.
