2000 Audi A6 review from South Africa
"Without doubt the best sedan I have owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Drivers window electric motor replacement. $200.
Temperature Gauge faulty at 100 000 km.
Water Pump Replaced at 125 000 km $400.
General comments?
This is without doubt the best car I have ever owned. I have had Mercedes and BMW in the past and the Audi beats them both.
The ride comfort is outstanding, the fuel economy is very good (Average 10 litres per 100 km), the car performs well and has been totally reliable.
Even the little problems I have had have not inconvenienced me at all. The car has only spent a few hours in the shop since I have had it.
I have tried to replace it with new cars of all types, as I feel like getting a new car, but I can't find anything else in its range that I would rather have and don't see the sense in trading it in yet as I believe it probably has another 200 000 km of relatively trouble free driving.
