I was talking about a 3.0 petrol, though diesel’s come a long way – to be honest wouldn't worry too much about having a quattro unless you're planning to drive it hard and really want the 4 wheel drive, the 2 wheel drive versions still offer plenty of grip.

In terms of other stuff its down to preference and number of desired toys! my preference for Alcantara/leather instead of full leather - it feels and I think ages better and doesn't get so hot if you leave the hood down, make sure the car comes with a wind deflector, also manual seats over auto, the manual is much easier to use rather than waiting for the motorised seat adjustment.

Sat nav is good, two versions available the CD based one that uses the drivers information window and the full DVD based one with a full-size screen – both are good.

I’ve really enjoyed owning mine, they are a good car - fun yet practical for a convertible - Good luck – hope you find what you’re looking for J
