Hi all,
new to the forum and to Audi so go easy on me!
So, having fallen in love with the A6 Avant, I'm looking to potentially buy one some time this year. I'm looking for a black edition (for the looks) and would like to know a few things regarding engine differences by year and what options to look for in the specs.
Ideally I'd like a 3.0 TDI but with my budget around £20k (I can spend more, but I'd also like a fairly low mileage car) that may not be possible. At the moment there are numerous 2013 2.0 models which are advertised with 175 bhp, whereas the newer 2014 models with 2.0L engines have 187 bhp and S Tronic gearboxes. Is this a significant improvement from the 2013 version? My current car is a pauper specced 2009 BMW 318d with 145 bhp so I think either would be an improvement but I am looking for something with more oomph than the Beamer.
I like the looks of the 2015 facelift version but at the moment the cheapest 15 plate models are more like £28k, would it be worth waiting for this to come down in price? I think sub £25k would be more palatable to me psychologically.
Any and all advice and experience is appreciated, cheers.
