recommendations and advice on a cheapish audi/vw estate

[leonski]

Hi all
We are moving house and sadly my R32 has to go, the deal with my wife was bigger house, cheaper/more economical car.....
Im looking to buy a passat/a4/a6 tdi, as I need to fill it with dogs and soon a wee man.
Can anyone tell me of any problems I may have with high milage/older tdi's. I have seen some great a6's for around 8-11k with 70-100k miles, would I be buying a can of worms?

I would really apreciate any advice anyone can give me.......and if anyone fancies a 5 door, 15k mile, black, 53 plate r32 give me a shout!

Many thanks
leon.

Why not spend 2.5K on an A4 or Passat 1.8T and keep the change for something fun/rainy day?

That had also crossed my mind, but do you recon that I will find a decent passat for 2.5k?
Cheers
Leon.
