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

In their own words

I think despite it's two main flaws - being lied to about fuel consumption and being lied to about emissions, this is a beautiful looking car, far better looking than anything owned previously. It has been reliable with no faults although I only got 28000 out of the front tyres (76000 on my previous Mazda 6). The body work is where these cars score highly as there are no dings, blemishes, scratches and it looks like new after 6 years. Servicing costs are actually reasonable if you take account of how long between services. Road tax at £30 is cheap, but there is a question mark over how they arrived at that figure. Would I buy an Audi again depends on what else is on offer, as I don't like being lied to.

How reliable do you find the car?

No reliability issues whatsoever, but only covered 14000 miles so far.

Does the car do everything you expected it to do?

It may seem a bit harsh but I think any Audi diesel needs to be judged harshly due to the emissions scandal. Plus this car has not delivered on the MPG either as I expected more than 50 MPG. I also think the equipment level is low, but I knew what I was getting.
