2002 Audi

Audi A4 Quattro Sport Avant 2002. 130K miles.

B6 model, 3.0 V6 Petrol, 220bhp, six-speed manual gearbox. Dolphin Grey. Black leather interior with alloy trim. Audi/Bose Symphony sound system with 6 CD changer in dash.

12 Months MOT with no advisories. HPI Clear. Good tyres. Full documented history. One previous owner. Genuine reason for sale.

I have owned and enjoyed this car since Feb 2006 when I bought it as an Approved Used Car from Shrewsbury Audi. Since then I have kept it serviced regularly and replaced various parts as required.

Very good condition for year, no parking dings. Interior excellent. Air-con working fine. You don’t see many A4s of this age in this condition, especially in this spec! I’ll be sad to see it go but my wife has bought a new car and I’m ‘trading up’ to her old one. I have only kept the Audi for so long because I enjoy driving it so much. The car goes very well with plenty of torque and power as you’d expect. It is even fairly economical (34 mpg) on a long run if you behave yourself. All in all a nice example of a fairly rare version of A4.

The cambelt was replaced at 80K miles along with the water pump, thermostat and other associated parts, (next one due at 160K).

Other items replaced during my ownership:

Mass air flow sensor. Serpentine drive belt and tensioner pully. Brake discs. Fuel pump. Interior self-dimming mirror. Assorted hoses behind the engine. All coil packs replaced. Numerous other minor parts as required and documented in the hefty stack of bills that comes with the car.

The Bad Bits:

Front offside wheelarch starting to get a bit crusty (see picture). Nearside just starting to go the same way.

Glovebox lid – one hinge broken, a common problem on this model. Repair kit included.

Rear parking sensors not working. One of the sensors is kaput according to a diagnostic plug-in.

Remote central locking generally works but occasionally doesn’t so you have to use the key.
