Heya Guys,

I thought id share a fairly recent purchase on here.

I don't tend to keep cars for very long but I sold my old Saab 93 with the horrific 1.9 diesel (150 bhp) and I found the Audi for sale.

I was after a car for myself and daddy duties.

The car was fairly local so I acquired the help of fellow member mikedrop to help me collect the steed.

Its a 2003 Audi A4 Quattro with the amazingly reliable 1.9 PD 130 engine which has been remapped to 165bhp.

It has got some mileage on it at 229000 now was 224000 when purchased but it has recently had both belts changed along with full regular documented servicing.

Some pics,



Here I was recently on a chainsaw course and had to follow a defender up these tracks, apart from ground clearance issues she performed flawlessly.



Also provided great entertainment on a recent camping trip.



Tow bar installation was a right faf .... had to dismantle most of the rear end



Towed a E46 easily



Overall im very happy with my purchase and everything works as it should, im hoping that it will be a great addition to my little fleet.

My dad also has an almost identical car to mine and recently we had to change the clutch.. the gearbox on these things are HUGE



Edited to add pics

Have a soft spot for these; for the money I think you get a really decent car. Nice choice.

I had a 130 TDI PD A4 B6 saloon : a brilliant car for the intended purpose. Even better as an estate !

Great car, one of the best diesel engines ever made IMO.

I must admit I do prefer the shape of estate cars compared to saloons
