Used 1996 Audi A4 2.8 Sedan FWD for SaleNationwide

Another one of my brother's cars. This one seems to be putting up with the rough justice of being owned by my brother quite well. It is 12 years old, so there have been a few items that have needed some work lately - but that's to be expected. A comfortable car, the A4 was Audi's first successful attempt at cracking the BMW 3 series and Mercedes C Class market. It was the model that really put Audi on the map and has been the foundation for what is an impressive model line-up. Audi dispensed with its venerable 5 cylinder and inserted either a new 4 cylinder engine (with turbo option) or the new V6 of either 2.6 or 2.8 litres. The V6 is a torquey and powerful unit, and when attached to a manual gearbox, makes for exciting performance. The trim quality is typical VW/Audi - just about faultless. The interior is made of high quality materials that wear well and look attractive over 10 years on. Occasional electrical faults are to be expected, as with any German car over 10 years old. Well equipped in even standard form, the first series A4 is now a relative bargain and servicing costs aren't as crippling as some people will have you believe (especially compared with some Asian manufacturers). A sensible choice for someone wanting a quality car at a reasonable price - but make sure it's got a full service history.

Grip is fantastic, you can throw this things round bends all day long without sliding off thr road. Speed also, even though it is heavy it does still have a good kick, because of the 2.6 V6. Fantastic drive. The high maintanence costs are worth living with as problems with these cars are few and far between.

Performance- accel, braking, handling, top end quality- no repairs needed appearance- sporty, great interior features cost- premium gas, parts expensive if need repair fun factor- this car was a blast to drive So I highly recommend this car to all!

Performance: Quite Good. We thought this was a 1.8 when it was a 1.6. Brakes very nice, handled very well too. Build Quality: Very Good Appearance: Good, a bit dull to look at Cost of Ownership: Cheap to run Fun Factor: Quite Good to drive

i love the drive but the electronics are a mission must be careful about who is fixing up the car if its not the agents,it will be good to have a maintenance plan on these things very comfortable large luxurious
