Rare Cpo Avant, Garage-kept, Audi-care Maintained - Fun And Versatile, Great Mpg on 2040-cars
Plano, Texas, United States
|
I'm getting a company car and am sadly parting ways with my beloved Audi A4 Avant. Whoever buys this vehicle will be in for a winter driving treat - it handles incredibly well (better than our 4x4 SUV) on the few days we had snow and ice in Dallas last year, and has a five star crash safety rating from the NHTSA. We comfortably fit a car seat, booster seat, and an 11 year old in the back seat of this wagon. Yes, you can have a cool, fun to drive vehicle and have kids! (but don't worry, our kids aren't allowed to eat in the car and generally ride in my wife's SUV...) The rear seats fold down and there's enough room for a bike. Anyone who is a car fanatic will know awesome wagons are!
I didn't spend five hours waxing it and applying ten coats of armor-all to it before taking the attached photos because I wanted you to see the car as it is. It's a used car - so there are a few scuff marks on the front left rim, a small door ding on the drivers side rear door, and a rear bumper scratch from our garage door. I think it's important for you to see this when you're buying a used car. We took it to the dealer and to CarMax when we were trying to decide whether to trade, sell, or sell privately, and the professionals at those places felt these scratches and dings can easily be removed or touched up. What I think really matters to a buyer is to know how much we loved and babied this car. We kept it in a garage, used only premium fuel, and everyone knows that used cars from Texas are the best since we don't have salt on the road/rust issues. It was certified on 3/2013 by Audi and has a Audi CPO warranty until 3/2016 or 100,000 miles. I will pay the $150 to transfer it to the new buyer. With the warranty, it's $85 per visit to the shop on everything the CPO warranty covers (you can find this on their website). We've used only synthetic oil and it has been cared for by the Audi-care plan, including the most recent 45,000 mile oil change and tune-up. The brake pads and tires are only 18 months old (they all have a discount tire road hazard warranty, discount tire can look them up based on serial-number if anything were to happen to the tires). I can provide all the paperwork and records I kept for this car to its new owner. The interior is clean, the seats are still like new. Some of the greatest things about this car aside from the handling and driving experience: it's a sport sedan with a turbo engine at heart with the cargo room of a small SUV. The panoramic sunroof is great! It has the Audi MMI system with navigation, satellite radio, bluetooth, iPhone connectivity, and a media hard drive that holds a lot of songs. The system even plays DVDs on the nav screen (you have to be stopped and in park...). I get ~24 MPG in the city and 32.7 MPG on the highway real world use. The black interior and the silver trim are sharp - Audi definitely knows how to do interiors. The exterior paint is cool - it's a bluish grey. LED headlamps and xenons give it a sporty and aggressive look. Yes, I love this car and having to part ways with it is tough, but I hope that whoever wins this auction will enjoy and love this vehicle as much as me. Any questions - please feel free to ask. |

Audi kicks off ad campaign tonight with stirring new spot
Mon, 13 May 2013Following last week's entertaining and wildly popular Spock vs. Spock video, Audi has come back with a bevy of videos for its new advertising campaign that will begin airing tonight in primetime and on cable.
There are five ads altogether, but the longest one, a 60-second spot titled It Couldn't Be Done, is our favorite by far. Set to a reading of the poem of the same name by Edgar Albert Guest, the commercial chronicles the history of Auto Union Deutschland Ingolstadt from the days of its founder, August Horch, through its many decades of innovation, competition and creativity. Indeed, watching the commercial gave us chills similar to when we first heard the Ram brand's Farmer commercial that aired during this year's Super Bowl.
The other four commercials are shorter 15-second spots that focus on such familiar themes as the company's Quattro all-wheel-drive system, the safety of its vehicles, their style and the company's advances in LED lighting. While less impactful than the longer ad, we think they effectively sound the drum beat of Audi's preferred tag line: Truth in Engineering. Scroll down to watch all five new ads, starting with the 60-second It Couldn't Be Done.
Audi UK in hot water over dealer safety claims
Wed, 14 May 2014Car salesmen don't exactly have a reputation for being in the most truthful profession, and it appears that several Audi showrooms in the UK are playing into that stereotype. A BBC investigation found that multiple dealers told buyers that the company's models scored well in Euro NCAP crash tests. No big deal, right? The problem was that the vehicles were never actually evaluated.
The report began after an R8 buyer sent in a tip that his UK dealer claimed the sports car had received top Euro NCAP scores. However, it has never been tested by the organization. The BBC called 10 dealers inquiring about the A5 (pictured above), which also wasn't assessed. Nine said the coupe had been checked out, and six claimed it had a five-star rating - the best available.
Euro NCAP is funded by governments and motoring bodies, like the ADAC in Germany and the FIA. According to its website, the organization selects some of the most popular new models each year to crash test, and, the BBC claims, automakers can also pay to evaluate their cars. The last Audi tested was the A3 in 2012. The A6, Q3, A1, A4 and Q5 have also been tested since 2009, and they all received five-star ratings. However, the A5, A7, A8 and R8 have not been tested.
2015 Audi Q7 spotted with a blurry first look
Mon, 12 Aug 2013Here's the good news: we finally have visual evidence of the upcoming and all-new 2015 Audi Q7 luxury SUV. A set of photographs show that Audi has been putting the SUV through its paces, with an eye towards an on-sale date sometime late next year.
The bad news is that it was not one of our usual clear-lensed spy photographers that captured these first images, but rather a sycophantic follower of our friends at CarPix. The resulting images are a lot lower resolution than we've come to expect, and there are far fewer angles from which to judge the car.
Still, we can make out the nose of the new Q7 is a bit flatter and wider than the rounded affair of the current car, and wears similar swoopy LED headlights as are found in the rest of the Audi range. We expect the overall dimensions of the 2015 Q7 to stay about the same as the existing model, but rumor has it that the SUV could be 800 to 900 pounds lighter in the next generation.
