There is a perception that Audi's are unreliable...this is largely not the case. If your friends have examples of "I know a guy who had to buy a whole new tranny" etc., there are horror-stories for every kind of car....sometimes you get unlucky and get a crappy one. Get the car inspected before you buy it, then be prepared to maintain it properly, and it'll run just fine. I'd say the cost of maintainence for an Audi is a bit higher than, say, a Geo Metro...but that's the price you pay for driving a finely tuned German engine instead of some crappy junker.
I don't know much about the "Wolfsburg" tuning...similar to an Audi sport package?....but those two cars you listed are damn near identical....Audi=VW the same way Lexus=Toyota and Infiniti=Nissan. If the Audi has quattro and the prices are close, definitely buy the Audi.

you know they both use the same 1.8 turbo, except with the audi, youll have an audi, maintain the engine well and treat it nice and you will be fine
