Should my Audi A6 be juddering in first?

Hi, I am driving a 2009 Audi A6 with 91,000 miles on the clock and a manual gearbox. It shudders on take off in first gear, mostly after starting in the morning. Any idea what it might be? I have had it to the garage and they tell me its a "feature" of the car. Not convinced!! Can you help? Gearbox oil has been changed.

Am I crazy to buy this MINI Clubman Cooper D?

I'm thinking of buying a MINI Clubman Cooper Diesel with about 83,000 miles on the clock. Am I crazy?!! Is there anything I should be alert to or questions I should ask? The only obvious problem is a sort of blistering on the alloys. Would this indicate any misuse? Also is there an issue with timing belt/chain? It's a UK import. Thank you
