Which overpriced Car?

[requiem]

Audi A7 3.0TDI Or BIT Quattro.
BMW 5 Series? (535)
Mercedes E400


The old man seems to think the Merc is a winner - I feel the audi is a better buy?


Thoughts?

 

[MickeyD]

Service plan differences?
Insurance differences?
Status symbol?
Age of driver?

Let him have his Merc...you'll never hear the end of it if you talk him into something else and he ends up not liking it

 

[Arthur]

Since your OM is over 23 and an educated man, the Merc is the only rational choice.

Age of Driver 63.
They all average out at about R1.1M with the extras wanted.

He has no interest in impressing others, but wants safety, comfort, comfort, comfort, and luxury.

Merc

 

[FiestaST]

I would say Merc as well but that A7 BiTDI is mighty fine

 

[Kal86]

Merc FTW.

 

[Masataka]

BMW 535d, otherwise the Merc as a second choice

 

[Sepeng]

In that category there's no bad buy so if he likes the Merc, then he should go for it!

 

[DanH]

At that age only a Merc will do.

Look at getting the air suspension option for extra comfort.

 

[Priapus]

Just let him have the Merc. That way, he is doesn't like it - he can't blame you.

The E-class is fugly compared to the other two. If he wants Merc, why not a CLS? The thing's gorgeous.

 

[Pitbull]

I'd go for the Merc just because the 5series is bland, and the A7 is a HUGE sedan.

I'm more an SUV guy so if I had to choose between the X5 Q7 and the ML. I would choose the Q7.

 

[Waynedk]

Audi

 

[Billy]

Lexus.

 

[Rouxenator]

Mercedes-Benz, it is the ultimate car.
Audi is for cocks (according to Top Gear)

 

[unskinnybob]

The BMW hands down. 535d engine is a stunner. Incredible power, incredible consumption.

It is a good second place contender, but nothing trumps a Merc.
