So need a family load lugged as I don't own a practical car! Didn't want to spend the earth as its a work horse! So scoured eBay and found this and paid the princely sum of £550!

Had a few issues, heater didn't really get hot, oil temp and water temp guages didn't work! So replaced the thermostat and coolant and then it was all good! Then driving home that night the low oil pressure warning light came on! Gutted! So yesterday had to change the oil pump and the pick up pipe as it was all blocked! Thank fully caught it just in time!
It drives lovely! Little under powered but nothing a map won't change!

What engine, and size? How many on the clock now? I never seen that colour before on A6...
 
Bargain! 1.8t 150bhp at a guess?

You have been very lucky if you have gotten away with just a pump and pick-up!
