I have personal knowledge of one Allroad that was run for just over 200,000
miles by its original owner. It was a diesel automatic and was regularly
serviced at loosely 20,000 mile intervals. The engine was sweet as a nut but
it was sold because he felt that the transmission was developing what was
likely to be an expensive to repair fault.

Re: Expected Longevity of A6 or Allroad
Thanks to everyone who responded to my question... I think I'll go for a
higher mileage Allroad instead of a lower mileage non-Audi crossover or
small SUV for the same price. Then I'll have two Audis with the sweet 2.7
bi-Turbo!
