Thanks Steve. What would I look for to check, and with so many recalls is there one particular one? I take it the car can cope with town driving as I will be doing a mix? Are they quite low maintenance too? Thanks again!

Hi all First post outside of the hello forum. Looking at getting a second car for my daily driver to and from work. Other car is a Grand Scenic for the missus. I am looking for a reliable car and will do around 40miles round trip per day and a little more running around so guess this will be around 8k PA - mostly A road and M Way miles but a dollop of town driving too. Not had an Audi before or other cars from the VAG group. How are they reliability-wise and in particular low maintenance (how i miss my old Rover 216Gsi...)? There is a high mileage (160k) 2010 Quattro 2.0 TDI Se for sale with timing belt just changed for around £3.6k i have my eye on but it has a DPF and heard horror stories of the DPF and also injector/oil pump woes. Any experiences/advice? Was also considering a 2006-7 BMW 320D M Sport for similar money with lower miles but been a FWD driver all my motoring miles though I did take a test drive of a 320Ci cabriolet (2004) which was a very smooth drive - hardly noticed high speed humps! Any input appreciated as it's your time 🙂 Cheers!

Hello Just thought i'd drop a wee message to say hello. Have Grand Scenics / Scenics the last 12 years or so.... and was looking at 320D M Sport 2005-7 for around £3k. A4 is around £3.5k. No Audi purchased.... yet but have my eye on an A4 2.0 TDI SE Quattro 2010 (160k) just had timing belt done but has DPF 😞 . Not sure if this is a good model to go for and looking for reliability and low maintenance - looking for everyday driver about 40miles per day mostly high speed but will post in a.n.other forum to get info.
