Audi A6 Saloon

    Value

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Much better equipment levels and build quality than anything else for the same money.

    Costs

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Excellent on petrol (average 32.5mpg). Parts are rarely needed, so price is less relevant. Quality pattern parts are available for less money at Eurocar Parts anyway. Also, I know 2 very good Audi breakers.

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Very smooth engine. Suspension a bit harsh driving on bumpy roads. It does wallow on corners, but I am not a Max Power type kiddy. I drive like a gentleman.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Plenty of power available, just in case you need it. I hardly ever use it.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    5 out of 5 5.0

    It's German. Of course it's excellent.

    It's a smart car. A 6 year old Audi has 100 times the appeal of a 1 year old Ford.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Nice comfy seats with plenty of support and adjustment, but very hard suspension.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    4 out of 5 4.0

    It has a built-in alarm/immobiliser. No one has tried to get into it, but I won't take it into cities like London.

    Service

    5 out of 5 5.0

    I have only called Audi customer service twice, but on both occassions I found the staff to be extremily courteous and helpful.
