Default 2009 vs 2010/11
Just musing.. I guess that is old D3, last D3 vs D4

Choices:
1. Keep with 2004 L 200K km $0
2. 2009 A8 (SWB) 160K km for $10K
3. 2011 A8L for $20K
Assume all are in v/good condition

I'll keep 2004 D3 or get 2013 D4 (kick the trunk open) or 2015+ face lift with matrix LED head lights with massage.
Cheers,

I came from a 2011 D4 to a 2005 D3. I adored my D4 and would just love another one. At this point, I'm waiting until I can get to the point where it can be an S8, though. There are quite a few ways that the D4 is incrementally better than the D3. It's faster, more efficient, the electrics are better, and it is a much more modern appearing vehicle. Also, the massaging seats available are pretty awesome.
