| Hey guys! Sold my A3 to my brother for the 2nd time this year (he better keep it this time!) So im looking for another VAG, been thinking about a few cars (another a3 1.8t, golf 1.8t, bora, leon... and so on and on) With my budget, a cupra R, Golf R32, or S3 are out of my league so, ive been looking at the cheaper alternatives! Seen a few nice V6 4motions about, with low miles that fit right in my budget. BUT, the only thing thats putting me off the V6, is the fact that theyre not as tunable as the 1.8T's. My old a3 1.8t was kicking out 220bhp, the V6's are 204bhp?? plus 4wd which in real world driving would make them a tiny bit slower through loss of power through transmission?? (i.e, my mapped A3 was a bit quicker than a standard s3 with quattro).... I know the V6's sound nicer, and are rarer??? any sugestions?? | |

| im going for the v6 4motion myself next, they are tuneable but not as much as a turbocharged. remap can get you to 220 but thats about it without spending a lot of money. | |

| I am biased towards another 1.8t, the v6's are quite hard to come by in a decent spec with decent miles! | |
