    Audi A6 1.9 Tdi or 2.5 Tdi Multitronic

    Max The 1.9Tdi you drove doesn't sound healthy. Mine is superb. Floor it and it pulls from about 1,500 - 4,800 rpm effortlessly. Plenty of torque. More than enough to kick the **** of those boy racers in their chaved up Nova's & Saxo's.

    Does this sound any good? 2.7T - £5995

    [ QUOTE ] I should also add that during those 170 miles no TDI's have passed me. Come to think of it nothing has passed me in those 170 miles. [/ QUOTE ] Thats rediculous. The number of times you have to stop and fill up to do the same miles on one tank of a Tdi... A Tdi will do 550 - 600...
