Areas for improvement: Fuel consumption
Despite the running costs I love this car. When it is running right it is the best car in the world. Even after 155,000 miles the interior is like new, the exterior rust free and everything feels solid.
The fuel consumption is frightening. The engine is too peaky for automatic transmission. However, the car has been converted to liquid petroleum gas and now averages 60 miles per gallon equivalent.
I once bought a 1995 A4 TDi new. That car did 70,000 miles fault free and lost £7,000 in value.
My current A4 has covered 35,000 miles, cost £1,300 in repairs, and lost £1,500 in value. I think I'll buy a new one next time!
The running costs for Audi A4 1.8 20V Automatic are high
