Take a look in the paper, selling any german vehicle. They are all at of near 50,000. Many past owners have figured this out, These cars fall apart at this mileage. Once they are fixed They are great cars again for another 50-100k. Typical issues; cooling problems (really bad), transmission leaks and weird electrical bugs. After $1,500 in repairs we are good to go for another 50k. Don't take your car to Audi, for repairs after the warranty runs out. They will make you want to sell the car after you get the bills.

I absolutely love this car. It's like a rock on the road. Extremely comfortable, ample power, very good handling in all types of weather. Very smooth shifting (auto trans). My only complaint is the location of the cup holder.

I was lucky to find this car(2.8L Quattro), I brought it with 215,000miles on it. Had to replace the engine($1500). Now it runs like a champ. I baby it, but if you see me at a red light, she can get up. Its an over all great car performance and comfort wise. Gas mileage can be better but it's still overall a great car to own. So if you don't have one "YOU NEED TO GET LIKE ME"

Buy a USED Audi

I bought a 1997 Audi A6 with 70,000 miles about 3 years ago for $13000 CDN. It needed a steering rack when I bought it. Since that time I replaced the catalytic converters, ignition switch and brakes and tires. Probably 1500.00 average for repairs. It runs great and if you do the math, it is the only way to buy a safe luxury car. I absolutely love it. About a year ago I was rear ended. The other car had to be towed away, and I had a small licence plate mark in the paint. Id buy another Audi in an instant.
