New A4 Owner

[bantamdave21]

Hi everyone

 

I’ve posted in the gallery section also but saying hello here.

 

I’ve been a long time lover since my first boss bought a 99 A4 Avant s line or whatever they may have been badged as back then. It was a V6 diesel i think but through financial constraints have until been a Ford man. But after having a 19 Q7 from new as a company car knew it was an Audi i wanted long term (ok after running a focus for a month for work).

So have bought myself a 2014 A4 2.0 tdi SE technik i would have preferred better spec but it was too good to miss at a shade under £5k.

Just lots of suspension arms on the front to replace now if I can shift the bolts corroded in etc. LED bulbs removed and need to fit a new headlamp for MOT as someone has previosuly completely mashed it trying to remove the lens (i’m guessing) to fit the LED bulbs.

No huge plans in terms of mods, I’m old fashioned and like to keep standard although I’m quite taken with the android upgrades - though I think I’ll pay formthe Audi Nav/MMI upgrade…

thanks everyone

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 

The V6 diesel A4 would have had the same engine as my A6. 

Nice to see youve had a few different Audi's 🙂

Yea I thought so, slightly high miles @ 150k 

I lost it on auction on eBay, the winning bidder didn’t collect and hours later I’d knocked some cash off my bid and was almost £5k lighter. Really pleased with it just need to sort front suspension arms which I’m not looking forward to. Only failed MOT on a rear shock and LED headlight bulbs need ripping out good result

That's good. Suspension arms are a common one. Even on older A6 models like mine.
