Hi Klaus,

to be fair I don't know anything about the Audi, but, I did think about them before I bought my 98 S70 T5.

However I was put off by the All wheel drive, having heard that AWD cars require all the tires to be exactly the same dimensions. Meaning if you have a half used up set of tires you need to buy 4 new tires rather than just replace one, plus I wondered about the extra complexity of the AWD system.

On the plus side AWD might be safer up there in Ohio winters?

Tough choice

Woody
