I thought about an A3 but didnt want the repair costs of an Audi, plus the same year V50 is about $6000 cheaper.

Thanks Frost!
I noticed on autotrader that some places were really bragging about one being accident free.
plus the two I drove both had front end body work done to them.

I haven't seen one with a nav system yet but I'd like too :D

I've seen a few FWD T5's but not many in manual :( .
If it comes down to FWD or AWD I'll take what I can get.
No worry's I'm just looking ATM, gonna wait till spring to start shopping around.

Found this one on autotrader, only thing I dont like is no leather :angry:
