for a 4k sub channel your production quality is insane.

Thanks kindly! -Tim

Audi have always been the well made solid choice. Any arguments against their reliability are mostly due to driver error, poor quality fuel in these really very finely tuned cars. How can that many cab drivers in east Europe who runs these things to starship miles be wrong? Like my 2019 A6, it’s just very good at everything and so easy and pleasant to live with. Their engineering and quality is exemplary; they age in terms of design and wear so incredibly well, and much better than Mercs and BMWs, and anything else on the road really.

Unfortunately Audi drivers get a bad rap (often with good reason) but in Avant guise this is a very decent machine as an all-rounder both inside and out (not cheap for the more desirable 40 petrol or diesel mind).

Ordered mine in September and getting it next month 😊. Went for the 40 TFSI avant and got a great lease deal. Hopefully worth the wait. I don't really like the 3 series, probs better to drive, but not a fan of the new digital dash and wheels too small. The Merc is nice but not worth the cost and feel like the quality has gone down hill. Like you say, the A4 is a good middle man car. Great build quality, punchy engine and looks mint with the 19 inch wheels

Had one of these in the avant model, with the big three litre tedious up front, Quattro, B&O, full leather, matrix LEDs, yada yada yada. It was a very, very good car. Only got rid of it because I’m an idiot and can’t hang onto cars for more than a couple of years.

It is almost fashionable to put Audi down, even compared to other VAG peers. Choose the right model, new or used, with a good engine and there are some decent understated cars.

Agree - I especially covet an A6 Allroad - Tim

Nice review, thank you

I have a 66 plate B9 A4 TFSI Quattro S Line (252ps).. this spec is a proper piece of kit. Like a baby S4 ❤ wouldnt change it for the world

2:16, yup the buldge is the worst. It's usually where I rest my foot in other cars and it just feels so annoying in the A4. I drive a Seat Leon and find its driving position more comfortable compared to my dad's A4. Haven't noticed the pedal offset though

Audi interiors on higher spec models are gorgeous

The A4 saloon is a handsome car! I went to the Motorpoint website, but was soon distracted by many other less sensible options 😮

It is easily the best looking modern car out there barring some exotic hyper special car. It is one of the few modern cars that actually holds its head up in the looks department compared to classic cars.

I was ready to pull the trigger on a used 330i, a4, a5 or c200, but then the byd Seal came on my radar. Brand new for the same money. Now I'm confused

what`s the refinement like, no mention at all????

Sorry! It's pretty decent all told, it does a great job of cutting out noise from the world outside - the loudest thing in the cabin is usually thudding from the suspension/wheels, especially on versions with bigger alloys - Tim

Unfortunately I can't get rid of my 2023 Audi A4 40 Tfsi.

Tip…never ever buy one used without a long long warranty.

All the 3 of them are fast but only in a straight line, ask them to negotiate their way through a traffic jam a different story though. I see it daily. Reply

Had a 3 series it was awful so uncomfortable so il agree haha. Also had a c class i loved that but unreliable and boring to drive

You're having a laugh. As someone who has owned two Audi A4's, I can tell you they are junk. Anyone who buys an Audi with their own money in 2024 and keeps it longer than two years, needs their head examined. Just look at the Which 2024 Car Brand Reliability Report and see Audi close to the bottom. The German auto industry has allowed the creative thinkers and costs reduction teams to flush the quality down the toilet.

Not just Audi A4’s, the A4 any worse than a 3er or a c class. What generation of the A4 did you have? B8 or B9?

@@Art-is-craft I agree. I have reached the age when I just want to get to where I am going. I don't want to broken down with another engine failure waiting for the tow truck while I admire the luxury interior and listen to the awesome stereo. I also don't want any Audi dealer attitude or poor support. Just look at the RS engines reliability debacle as a classic example of what overcomplicated junk looks like. Boring is good.

very uncomfortable car - the seats are terrible
