Hi! Just bought an '05 A4 Avant
 

Jim from Calgary here. Just put my old Q45 out to pasture and replaced it with a lovely A4, three liter V6, six speed manual. Hope to drive the lovely beast for many years.

Have loved Audis since reviewing them in my work and was looking for either an A4 or A6 Avant when I came across this well-maintained car.

Hope to pick you folks' brains and maybe even add some of my own wisdom if I ever get some.

Cheers,
Jim

Whats the milage? 3.0 are notorious for head problems. Keep on top of those oil changes. Every 5k, cheap insurance. Enjoy

Hi, Dan. It has 122,000. Guy who owned it appears to have kept it immaculate and has all the records. I'll certainly keep the oil fresh, though. Probably take a while to get 5k on it 'cause we only plan to use it as a second car, but I appreciate your advice.
cheers

Hey Jim,

Welcome.

The background looks very familiar, StonePine by chance?

Thanks for the kind welcome. You have good eyes. I believe it is StonePine. It's a pic from the previous owner's Auto Trader ad and makes the A4 look a lot nicer than a pic from my unfinished garage would...

Gated community SW of Calgary off of highway 8.

cheers
