Which one of these 5 models should I buy?

Hello, I've been really struggling to find cars that best sastifies my interest. I've narrowed the list down to 5 models and I am going to buy one of these 5 before December. If any of you forumers have actually bought this before, please comment pros and cons about these cars. Btw, I reside in Australia however, I assume you are also familiar with these models...

Okay, here are my priorities list.

1. The quality and reliablity of car

2. How slowly does the car depreciate? (For re-selling purpose)

3. Which one is the least expensive in terms of repair/parts?

4. Price (Although I also put importance on price, as long as the car's renowed for good, I am willing to pay more..)

5. Least Fuel Consumption.

Thanks for your comments in advance,




A. New A4 2.0 / Silver - RRP A$ 48,300


B. New Honda Accord Euro Luxury / Silver or Gold - RRP A$ 42,800


C. Used 2002 Peugeot 206 CC Convertible / Silver - RRP A$ 32,000


D. Used 1998 Alfa Romeo GTV / Silver - RRP A$ 27,000



E. Used 1999 BMW 318i E46 / Silver - RRP A$ 31,990

I think you have too much money is what I think.

Either that or youre taking out a loan, those cars are quite upscale, drive them all and see what you like then buy it. If you can afford those im sure you can afford repairs, drive what interests you most

I am taking out a loan.

Yes, I also do consider them high-priced cars, but it is my desire to drive one of them.
