Wanted TDI cheap Audi

pimpdriver · 19-03-11, 10:15 PM

WIth the high price of petrol, I'm looking for a 80TDI or 100 TDI (2wd). Not too bothered about bodywork, just has to have decent mechanical bits......... High mileage is fine too......

£500-1000.

Will travel for right car.

Cheers

How about an early A4. Mine does 50mpg and impossible to get it below 44mpg no matter how hard you try

Rear legroom is crap.

We had a 99V reg. Also not as well built as the B4. Also suspension problems.

Agree about rear legroom but then only i drive it now for work, suspension has a bad reputation but only changed mine once in 135k miles

Worse issue for me has been the alternator, pas belt idler pulley, had 4 on now..

Never had a build quality issue still no interior squeaks or rattles and you'd think it had only done 30k when you're driving it. Have to sell soon as Pete learning to drive next year

I was going to suggest an A4 as well, although rear legroom is indeed crap. Ive one with 240k or there abouts and still pulls strong( for 90bhp).

A4 is a definite no no. My wife and I will use it occasionally to carry kids in car seats, and I won't be amputating their legs so they fit in it!

That is the reason we sold our A4 originally.

Jonathan, who works as THE Audi Specialist at my wifes garage just of J29 of the M1 is an absolute guru. His own cars are a testament to him, his work and his knowledge, but judge for yourself.
