1999 Audi A4 Quattro review from North America
"Great car for the 1st year or two"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have been a fan of Audi design and handling. I have owned now two Audi cars, I have stood up for AUDI products and purchased them.
First I thought my first Audi purchased with high Kilo was the problem. My 2nd Audi A4 was great on motorways and handling, and in the first few years. However, it has been a horrible in the reliability department and costly. This has deterred me away from the great styling and I've opted to go to the Japanese products.
Recently enjoyed driving the new Genesis by the Korean manufacturer. The new A4 too expensive! A6 has great size and style, but after the poor reliability I cannot purchase another Audi as I am plagued by being the memory of myself or my wife and children being stranded too many times on too many things like electricals.
Audi, if you are going to command the price, give us the reliability.
