Hello folks,
Are A6 estate 2.5 turbo diesels any good?
I was looking for a BMW 525TDS, but an A6 estate has popped up.
It is an N reg older shape, and looks generally in good order.
I have generally had BMW's until now and would be very grateful for any advice. ie consumption, any inherent problems, performance etc etc...

Thank you in advance.

I'm told they are indestructible - as witnessed by the large number of A6 tdi taxis you see. Sky-high mileages if looked after. Everything about these 1991-1997 shape Audis is built to last.

I don't know what the driving experience with FWD models is like.

If you want some advice call Neil at Four Circles in Bedminster.

Did you buy?

I'm thinking about one of these at the moment.

I ended up buying a BMW which is an excellent car, but I had nothing but good feedback about the audi.

I think you made the right choice. I think keen drivers should avoid non-quattro Audi's.
