1998 Audi A4 Avant (Wagon) Quattro 2.8L V6 w/Low Miles (120K)

For sale is a silver Audi wagon with low miles and a clean title. Great commuter or family car. All-wheel drive means that it handles very well in the snow. No rust issues.

This vehicle comes equipped with the following options:

* Automatic Transmission
* All Wheel ABS and All-Wheel Drive (Quattro)
* Alloy Wheels
* Tinted Windows
* Leather Heated Seats
* 6-Disc Bose Premium Sound System
* Power windows and seats
* Roof Rack
* A/C is cold
* Non-smoker vehicle

(Recently replaced front tires, rotors, brake calipers, and brake pads.)

Vehicle is in good working order but does have the following issues: Sunroof frame damaged (motor works, but sunroof will not open); Tiptronic feature not functioning; needs new rear tires; LCD display for cabin temperature is difficult to read; passenger door molding missing; exhaust hanger noisy; may need new wheel bearings.

Overall, this has been a very reliable car for our family the past 4 years. It was purchased in 2009 on Ebay Motors and used to commute 3 miles to and from campus, as well as drive around the town of Boone, NC. We're selling because we're relocating to the UK and cannot take the car with us.  :(

A few people have asked about the car's service history and rather than post responses to each individual question, I thought I'd respond more generally.


The car had two prior owners in Maryland before I bought it on Ebay Motors in 2009 (at 99,425 miles). Records show that the car was regularly serviced at an authorized Audi Dealer (e.g., at 25K, 30K, and 40K miles), as well as had regular oil changes every 6 months. There is no evidence that the car ever suffered from any major mechanical or electrical problems, and it was never damaged in an accident. During the 5 years that I have owned the car, I have only had to repair the rear wheel bearings, front rotors, and windshield wiper motor, in addition to some minor things like replacing the tires, brake pads, battery, and a few vacuum hoses (I went ahead and replaced the front brake calipers simply because I was already replacing the rotors and brakes). Of course, I change the oil regularly and have had it looked at by a mechanic specializing in German automobiles.

The engine starts easily (even in cold, snowy weather), and the engine runs very smoothly. As far as I can tell, the car does not burn any oil or have any major leaks. The transmission shifts smoothly through the gears. There are no known electrical problems with the car--for example, the 'Check Engine' light is NOT on, and it does not return any error codes. The power windows and doors are operational (the seats are mechanical). The heated seats work well, as does the heater/defrost system. The Air Conditioner produces very cold air, reducing the internal temperature quickly. The stereo is really nice, and it produces crisp highs and deep bass when desired. The interior leather is in good shape, except for a small place in the driver's seat seam. In short, the car is in very good condition for its age.

Overall, this Audi has been the most reliable and lowest maintenance car that I have ever owned (from about a dozen used cars over the past 20 years). If the car doesn't sell on Ebay before we move to the UK next month, I probably will just keep it and drive it out to stay with family in California because it has been such a great vehicle.

Happy bidding and let me know if you have any other questions.

Audi R8 Spyder looks like heaven at the Green Hell

Tue, Aug 18 2015

After Audi took the wraps off the new R8 coupe at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show, we knew it would only be a matter of time before the convertible version arrived. Now, we've spotted the droptop during testing on and around the venerable Nurburgring Nordschleife in Germany. The new Audi R8 Spyder is expected to closely mirror the fixed-roof supercar we've already seen. Only instead of a tin top, of course, it'll have a folding fabric roof mechanism. This goes against the recent retractable hardtop trend, and the featured is used by the Ferrari 488 Spider and McLaren 650S Spider. Some revised air vents appear to be part of the R8's convertible package, as well. Otherwise, we can anticipate the same specs as the R8 coupe. The latest model ditched the previous version's V8 engine in favor of 10-cylinder options: a 5.2-liter V10 with either 533 horsepower in "base" spec or 602 hp in the V10 Plus model. Both drive all four wheels through a seven-speed dual-cluch transmission. The jury's still out on whether Ingolstadt will slot a smaller engine option into the R8, particularly for markets where tax brackets are determined by engine displacement. But whatever the coupe gets, the convertible is likely to offer it as well. Related Video:

Audi building 50 camouflaged Jon Olsson Edition A4 Avant wagons [w/video]

Thu, 13 Feb 2014

Swedish Autoblog readers, have you been driving your Audi A4 Avant wagons and thought, 'You know, I really wish my car looked more like a camouflaged World War II battleship?' Well, great news for you, as skier and Audi enthusiast Jon Olsson has teamed up with the German brand's Swedish outfit to offer this new limited-edition A4 Avant.
Finished in a camo patterned after Olsson's own RS6 Avant (which you can view in the video below) and slope-ready Lamborghini Gallardo, the Jon Olsson Camo Edition will cost fans of Smörgåsbord 399,900 Swedish Krona ($62,071 at today's rates). For that sum, you'll get the aforementioned A4 Avant wrapped in the Olsson-designed camo, as well as sport seats, a roof box, Xenon headlights, black 19-inch wheels shod in winter rubber, a sport suspension and Audi's S-Line exterior treatment. The Camo Edition will only be available with the 2.0-liter TDI engine and Quattro all-wheel drive.
There will only be 50 examples made, so we'd strongly recommend interested parties get down to their local Swedish Audi dealer. And if you want to see what the Camo Edition looks like in motion, scroll down for the video of Olsson's Audi RS6 Avant, finished in a similar pattern, running around Switzerland. We've also included the translated press release from Audi of Sweden. Have a look.

2019 Infiniti QX50 vs. compact luxury SUV rivals: How they compare

Thu, Feb 1 2018

With apologies to the EX35, or whatever it was eventually renamed, Infiniti has been without a proper, competitive entry in the compact luxury SUV segment. You know, the segment that's growing faster in sales and entries than any other? To say the 2019 Infiniti QX50 is long awaited would therefore be an understatement. At first glance and drive, the new QX50 would indeed seem to be wildly more competitive than its predecessor, which come to think of it, was eventually called the QX50 as well. This one is based on an all-new front-wheel-drive platform, and although it lacks the inherent verve of the old, rear-drive- and 370Z-based one, the resulting increase in cabin space should be a welcome tradeoff. In fact, as you'll see below, the QX50 has gone from one of the smallest compact SUVs to the most spacious. How does it stack up in every other way? Say, against the segment's four best-selling entries last year: the 2018 Lexus NX 300, 2018 Acura RDX, 2018 Audi Q5 and 2018 BMW X3. On paper at least, really well as it turns out. Let's go to the spreadsheet! Discover and compare other luxury crossovers with our Car Finder and Compare tools. Comparing engines, drivetrains and transmissions With the exception of the Acura, all of the contenders come with 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engines. As you can see, the Infiniti is the heavyweight amongst the four-bangers, boasting the most horsepower and torque. The Acura V6 nips it by 11 hp, but the QX50 is still the overall torque champ. Plus, as we documented in the QX50 first drive, the Infiniti's new VC-Turbo engine is also the most technologically advanced. The Lexus is the wimp of the group and is also the second-heaviest, which isn't exactly the ideal scenario. The Infiniti is the only one in the group to feature a continuously variable transmission. That's not going to generate much applause around here. The BMW tops the gear count with eight, while the Audi is the only entry with a dual-clutch automated manual. The Acura and Lexus have only six gears, but they're good transmissions and it's not like their fuel economy is off the pace. The Audi and BMW come standard with all-wheel drive, while the others offer a choice of front- or all-wheel drive. Comparing cargo and interior space The new front-wheel-drive platform is paying dividends inside for the 2019 QX50, as it now boasts the most maximum cargo space at 65.1 cubic feet.
