rides with Rebecca Black.. in the back
Is it quattro? or FWD? What 1.8t variant is it?? How much power?? I can't speak for Aussieland variants but I know that Audis in the US, especially the B6s, suffer BADLY from reliability issues. A friend of mine has a 2005.5 (before the restyle) A4 1.8t 180bhp, and it hasn't been horrible. It's only been in the shop twice in the year he's owned it. But he just dumped about $3,000+USD into it and it's running....-ish. Why would you spend all your time, energy, and money, upgrading the computer, exhaust, turbo, downpipe, intercooler, intake, and motor mounts in a 1.8T AUTOMATIC is beyond me.
To answer your question.... Buy a 330i.
Wait so all that money and time and the trips to the shop were for upgrades and not fucked up reliability?
