Should I swap my Audi A6 TDI for a petrol Audi A4 Avant?

I currently have an Audi A6 TDI 190 and I'm nearly halfway through my PCP. I'm considering swapping for an A4 Avant, but is the TFSI petrol (252 Quattro) a good choice over the 190 diesel? I do 12,000 miles a year with occasional long trips, but on a daily basis 10 miles a day to work.

Very definitely. Not as many mpg but infinitely nicer to drive and far better to keep (if you want to) at the end of the PCP.
