No need to apologize you posted a valid question and in the correct forum. The only problem is not everybody is active in every sub-forum so it can take a while to receive a response.

Now generally speaking yes Audi's are great and if properly treated will last a long time. Thanks to quattro the car you posted is also a great daily driver should you live in an area that sees snow.
Overall the A4 is a nice entry level car into the Audi world that gets you comfortably and safely from A to B.

Now on to the bad side of the car you picked:
* Some of the early A4's with the 2.0t had problems with the cam follower and High pressure fuel pumps. If not checked regularly and parts replaced as needed an expensive bill will fly into your lap. I'm not 100% if that car will fall into that category.
* Coil Packs: Replace if car starts to hesitate or act underpowered/misfiring. Coil packs are known to fail early and it's always a good idea to replace those early even if just as a tune-up/precaution (don't forget the spark plugs)
* Oil consomption can be an issue but just keep an eye in it and see if you need to fill it up between oil changes. Normally you should not need to add in between maintenance invervals but some engines start burning/losing oil and you will have to keep a close eye on it.
*Timing belt - never forget to change the timing belt. Rule is every 7 years or 80k whatever comes first. If there is no record of it being done - do it when you get the car just to be safe.

Overall the A4 is a good car but again you have to take care of it with regular maintenance. Be prepared to drop some money into the car after you purchase it even if it drives great the first days.
Audi's are notorious for expensive repairs, not because they are badly designed but because quality parts are expensive to maintain/replace. Everything will eventually fail, it all depends on how the car was driven/treated over the years.
