Audi 1996 A4 Avant

Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

  • Economy

    Value

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Not cheap to buy, but worth the extra pennies.

    Costs

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Very economical on diesel. Avoid the terrible Audi dealers. Find a good garage or buy a Haynes manual - the car is very easy to maintian yourself.

  • On the road

    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Fast and smooth, feels like new at 100K.

    Performance

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Excellent for an estate.

  • Living with it

    No major trouble so far.

    Image

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Great image. Great design, doesn't look like a big estate, but with the seats down you can get loads in.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Bags of space in the front - a bit cramped in the back.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Alarm and immobiliser as standard.

    Service

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Audi dealer garages are snobbish, too expensive and the work is poor - avoid! Unfortunate, as the cars are great. Doubt if 'Full Audi Service History' means anything.
