2008 Audi A4 Avant Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Owners of the 2008 Audi A4 Avant generally love its impressive performance, luxurious interior, and sporty appearance. The car is praised for its speed, handling, and fun driving experience. However, some drivers find the price to be on the expensive side, and a few are not entirely sold on the wagon design."
I have now had this 2008 Audi Avant, mileage 79000-88000 for five years. It was a one owner car from Massachusetts bought without inspection during Covid. I had only a Carfax and a few pictures. I had it inspected when it got here and got a laundry list of needs which I have addressed over the past years and found some unnecessary. The conclusion I have is that is was a very well made car with very good materials. After 17 years there are no signs of body corrosion, although springs and some suspension parts showed corrosion. Engine belts were changed, valve cover gasket changed, and a couple of costly surprises were repaired. The interior still shows minimal wear. I really like the size and the zippy performance, especially in sport mode. Even though it is a 2.0 turbo, acceleration is pretty good and easily revs to redline at 6800 or so. End result is a 17 year old wagon that is still enjoyable to drive. No wonder there is an enthusiastic following and why these cars are kept on the road with 180,000 to sometimes 240,000 miles. Can be expensive repairs but a fun car to drive, very good on highway, twisty roads, or in snow.
October 15, 2025Performance - Great styles Build Quality - Amazing cars Appearance - Excelent styles Cost - is expensive, but worth it Fun Factor - It is incredible that a car is worth what it is. The comfort and technology, mean that this vehicle is one of the best in the world
July 15, 2009This was a nice car and i can imagine someone wanting to get one, but the whole wagon concept was just not for me. If you look at the front of the car only however, you would never be aboue to tell it was a wagon. of course every part of the car was perfect, weather it was the nice metal details in the interior or the flawless paint, this is definetley a sporty wagon.

January 8, 2008For a wagon, this is a fantastically great handling car and for a small engine has outstanding performance. The six speed manual is nice, 6th gear could be a bit higher for US speeds. Sports car handling in sheep's clothing.
May 11, 2015fun, fast, easy to drive car. can switch into sport shift when you want to take control or leave in auto when you want to kick back. great car to get into audi line of vehicles. unique sport wagon style.
January 26, 2014love the speed, stability and 4wd take off! Interior is absolutely luxurious and the extra features are really useful. S-line package really makes it look sporty. It smokes all other 2.0 litre luxury cars. 243km/h plus speeds and 200bhp of pure power. Looks like a family car but performs like a sports car.
