Hi there, I've found a beautiful 56 plate A6 2.0 TDi Avant S-Line at a decent price... 67,000 miles, full Audi main dealer service history, MOT'd a month back (no advisories), all the toys and so on. I wish I could go for a bigger engine as it's certainly a little sluggish but I desperately need the mega fuel economy... I'll be getting it chipped as soon as I get it so no worries there.

Thing is, I've not owned an Audi since my old 80! I'm wondering whether anyone out there has any experience of this exact model, any tips or advice they can give me, anything particular to watch out for?

Also, the car's history shows it being serviced at 66k by Audi main dealer but makes no mention of cambelt being done. I was under the impression from owning a Passat Sport with the same engine that 60k was the recommended mileage for that big job?

Cheers!
