Buying an A4
I recently moved back from Sweden and I'm thinking about buying an A4.
I've found some great ones.
One is a 2002 and has 118,000 miles on it, U.S miles which would be 73750KM. He want's around $9,000 for it, is that too much?
Also, it's a 1.8turbo. I've heard that they tend to fail after 100,000 miles.
Thanks in advance!

Exactly, also from my understanding the maintainance will be a big deal as it has high mileage on it, so the maximum price that you may wanna pay for that kind of mileage should be about 6K.

Re: Buying an A4
I love this forum.
One questions and you get a straight on answer.
Yeah I was wrong with the calculations of mileage vs kilometers.
He's selling another Audi. It's also an A4 1.8T, but only has 90,000 miles. I mean, yeah that's good. But I drive 130 miles a day for hockey... I don't know what my best guess would be.

Re: Buying an A4
how much is the question? i bought my 2003 A4 a year ago, and its a 3.0 with 132K for 12,000...with the amount of driving you do, you are better off buying a car with more kilometers since it wont depriciate that much.

Re: Buying an A4
This is a car that I'm going finance and buy on my own, so I want to keep it for a while. I used to own a A6 2.7t 2002 but I sold that when I moved to Sweden. I want the A4 because I'm single, it can fit my hockey gear, and great gas mileage. It also has some power.
I am looking at a couple cars right now. I decided to just post the URL's to the sites so that it's easier to see.
A4 3.0
Red 2002 A4
Gold A4 1
Blue A4
The original A4
There they are. Which one would be the best choice?

Re: Buying an A4
gotta go with the 3.0...great gas mileage, lots of power, and naturally aspirated motor will last you a lot longer. Plus it has the lowest km out of all of them. Remember the 3.0 was an expensive upgrade, this car cost a lot more than 1.8t brand new.
