    So I've been thinking of buying one of the above cars. Has anyone got one of these and if so have they had any issues?.

    The 150HP didn't come until 2015 so check it's not a remap, they are dull enough inside with nasty plastics on the dashboard! Would you consider an A6 as they are nearly the same price.

    It may be 141 bhp, co2 emissions on it are 119 so very cheap tax! I did consider the a6 but think they'd b too big for me. I wouldn't mind about plastics quality. The one I'm considering has Audi mmi and sat nav so well speced. Just worried re reliability issues...

    Earlier ones seemed to like going through flywheels but not sure if that applied to 2013 models. Suspension on the S Line can be hard enough especially if it's on big wheels.

    The wife has a 151 and has no issues so far only it's fairly hard on tyres especially front's!

    I have a 2013 A4 S-Line Avant.... be prepared for how low it is on minor/back/country roads... and I'm not talking arsehole of nowhere roads! Even going through some estates I'm crawling over humps.. just in case.

    Sure isn't that all that matters, don't worry about anything else so long as your only paying low tax each year.

    Having paid €710 per year in road tax for my last car I can assure you I don't buy a car for cheap tax. Also had a 325ci which was over €1000. I have just bought the Audi and I'm very happy with it. Cheers for your input.

    well wear, gorgeous car.

    Get it remapped now, those engines take a remap very well. Should be able to bring it up to around 190bhp and a nice bit of extra torque.

    Have been strongly considering this... can anyone recommend someone reputable to do this?.
    Also do most people inform insurance companies of this ?.

    George Dalton is a Revo agent so it's right up his street. Informing your insurance company is a very hot and controversial topic on here.
