Great car
Fun to drive
lots of performance potential with the 1.8T
BUT
Its expensive to maintain
make double sure that its checked before U buy.
BTW
"dealer maintained" means .......NOTHING

For that sized car a 1.8 engine sound underpowered but the turbo helps and if you can afford it and you want to you can try chipping it.
A friend of mind did that to his, well actually it was an A6 but same 1.8T and boy did that car ever perform after woweee Laughing

Major improvement......

^^Mhmmm.I think it's a nice ride>comfort wise.But the older models (B5 Chassis>around 1999-2000) has some issues with the electronic display.

Nice car, very comfortable, the only thing I've heard about going wrong "often" with those is the lcd display unit which is quite expensive at the dealership. If you are going with a new car, it might be worth your while to go and check out the subaru legacy GT, in my opinion this vehicle is superior in every aspect to the A4 and Passat.

oh please allyuh saying it slow like a civic fast
allyuh ever actually travel in one of these they does run
the ride quality tops comfort to the max and it real safe u simply cant compare a european to a japanese
an audi a4 u cant go wrong
and we all know they more than outrunning civics premieras and them sr and rb boys
yes parts are expensive but they dont go as fast as japanses cars so when u spend money on something u good to go 4 a long time
safety u cant go wrong u never hear anyone die when they crash in a eurpoean car its a well built piece of machinery i personally drove them several times the passat and boras are also real good cars

false a guy i no died in his passat....those cars are sfer than japs cars...but speed wise ur majorly rong,i drove 1 aswell...and very laggy im pretty sure the sr and rb boys beat this car in a race

1.8T not as fast as u would expect
runs like a regular 2.0

Those cars are veryexpensive to maintain and some of the parts difficult to get, some of them u have to source directly from london.
Some models of the A4 there is alternator problems.

the cars are realy nice thoughif u buy them from new. Sweet ride
