New family bus ? - anyone had one of these: A6 Avant 3.0 4wd

[jimbom30cab]

will do ..

It really was silky smooth to drive, odd really as it's a diesel but it was like a petrol engine, no major power band, pulled through the whole rev range and was very quiet.

Part of the deal was a Audi inspection and any work done that needs it. The front bumper had a dissagreement with the kerb and had a couple of stone chips so they are replacing that also.

So should have it in an week or so.

Are they worth re-mapping for some extra MPGs etc?

[Gert_8]

Wrong person to ask about re-mapping, never considered it, or done it, as it's not the sort of thing that interests me. MPG gains is usually the reason given for re-mapping.

I'd be tempted to run it for 1-2 years and then make a call on that.

Cool

The best thing is not having to pack the kids in the back of an e30 2 door anymore

I have to say nice looking car and have to say the a6 would be top of my estate list only trouble is my budget is around the £5-6k

Sorry but that just looks like a bland boring blob of silver to me.

[jimbom30cab]

LOL, that's because it is !!

Requirements list:

1. Estate and large for kids bikes stuff etc
2. Diesel for mpg and low tax
3. not a BMW (I have 3 already)

And actually I prefer the interior to the F10 or E250, it's more driver orientated

Other than that, it's a 1850kg blob of silver !!!

As long as you're happy that's all that matters.

Got a cast iron warranty?

[jimbom30cab]

Very happy thanks. Yup all sorted but not that bothered really, it's a second hand car, if it brakes i'll get it fixed or buy another one.
