1998 Audi A6 SE review from UK and Ireland
"A refined luxury cruiser"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing in the six months of ownership - Can't comment on dealer service yet, as one isn't due until 60000 miles.
Only minor niggle is the driver info module/computer which can get fainter and fainter after long periods. Once 'cooled down' or rested for an hour or two, it is OK - until the next time.
General comments?
A superb car in every respect. Eats motorways for breakfast.
Superb ride, leather seats and dual climate control. Understated luxury.
Very quick, and amazingly smooth. Tiptronic 5 speed works like a dream. Gearbox is altogether one of the best features on this car, as it adapts to the road conditions so quickly.
Not too bad MPG - but being heavy on the right foot is always tempting in a car such as this.
