    My Mom went to trade in her 2005 1.8t A4 with 61k miles... needed a new convertible top motor, AC unit and radio. Dealer offered her $1000....I bought it from her for $1500 and put in a new satnav head unit and fixed the convertible top myself. I love this thing!! Ive had it for 3 months now. Northeast US.

    Lovely car, I had one for about 5 years. Dark blue, with that interior cruising down to Cornwall top down it was bliss. Shame a bus thought otherwise

    A
    Very nice car. I have one of these for summer in the color silver. It is the 2.4 170 hp V6. The engine sounds a little better, but feels a little slower. It is my comfortable companion for the summer months as an additional car. It wasn't expensive and I would buy one again and again. No matter whether 1.8T, 2.4 or possibly also as 3.0.
    Tomorrow I will take another tour through the "Erzgebirge" (Ore MMountains) with my wife and two children. We are looking forward to a relaxing Sunday. :)

    So the book says 9.2secs to 60, but you ‘feel’ that it’s ‘slightly quicker’ and probably 7 secs. You do realise that to knock 2 seconds off the time needs a hell of lot more power?? No way it’s 2 secs quicker if it’s unmodified.

    Yep and all that aside this B6 era one really looks great still, especially with the roof down. A 3.0 quattro or the V8 S4 is incredible value yeah. The electrics can play up but the engine is solid. Amazing value right now

    I've picked 3.0 V6 for a grand two weeks ago. Grey body red roof and interior, etc. You can easily find a bargain this days on the market 😊

    My mum has a 2005 1.8T S line one in black. Was a nice car, but near the end of her ownership the rear glass kept falling out of the roof 😄

      Yep common fault with them....roof material shrinks with age and the glue gives up the ghost. Just re-glued mine, but still a lot of car for the money, love mine ;-)

    Needles to say, my 03 Leon Cupra 1.8T costs £365 PY to tax currently. And £700 for your Audi A4 1.8T on that mileage is great value.
    Curiously though, which engine & gearbox code does this use?

    Don't look at car tax as annually look at it monthly like the Insurance. I know it's the same money but not 1 big hit.
