I am buying a German high-end car and have shortlisted the Mercedes-Benz C-Class 200 K, Audi A4 and the BMW 3 Series. I am interested in a petrol car as I believe they are more silent than diesels, also the engine is smoother. Further, the car will be driven about 600 km per month, add two trips a year to Mahabaleshwar and maybe a trip to Mumbai. I live in Pune and am 65. I am looking for comfortable ride quality and easy handling within the city. I have just read that Audi has introduced the A4 in 1.8 — and 2.0-litre petrol versions. Kindly advise me as to which car would be most suitable.
