Hello.  I am new to this forum and thought someone may be able to help.  I live in London.  I have owned a number of A6 Avants - from C5 to now C8.  All 3.0 TDIs.  They have all been excellent cars and I have kept them all past 100k miles.  I recently traded in my really, really good C7 for a C8 - again 3.0 TDI S line with most of the usual bells and whistles.  Only had it for a couple of months but I don't like it.  Number of reasons from being very quiet, soft suspension, don't like the new dash etc but above all it's just not as fun to drive as the C7.  I accept that all this is quite subjective and some people might say that the C8 is better but I don't like it.  Retrograde step perhaps but I want to go back to the C7.  No point doing so unless it's a very good one and with very low mileage.  Have scoured Autotrader etc but they are mostly high mileage and specs aren't quite right - there are loads of 2.0 TDI.  Does anyone know where I can find what I am looking for - maybe there are specialist Audi dealers I have yet to find?  Might go for RS6 if all else fails but I would prefer the 3.0 TDI.  Any views from the experts?  Thanks for reading.  Richard        

Sorry to hear you're not happy with your c8. Could you consider a 3.0tdi biturbo c7? 

Thanks Steve. Yes, C7 3.0tdi biturbo for sure if I can find a low mileage one, pref 2018.  

Good luck with the search 🙂

This will be a waiting game, especially if it’s low mileage. Even on average mileage, on a 2018 car you’re looking at 70k. Then it’s specification. If V6, I assume it’s 272PS engine, Tiptronic box, etc. Consider the A6 Allroad, again rare, but they do come up time to time. Also be prepared to travel. In your favour, most of these cars are down south.

Thnak you - I am sure you are right.  Will keep looking and wait for one to come along.
