Other Audi A4 (2000 - 2005) models:

  • Summary

    4 out of 5 4.0

    What does this car say about you?

    I don't try to make a statement with my car - it's just a car. I run a 10-year old car because it continues to do the job.

    What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

    No idea. I don't think about it.

    Would you buy this car again and why?

    Probably not an A4 Avant because we don't need the space now children have left home. Happy with the Audi brand, so may look at an A3.

    What are you likely to buy next?

    As above - maybe an A3. Possibly even a MINI
