Default Looking to buy Audi A4 1996-2002 for first time and need advice

Hey everyone!

I've always been a honda owner but i am looking to make the switch now. I have some questions that maybe everyone can help me resolve. The mileage on audi's i've been looking at have started 115,000 to 150,000. Some of them posts ive read cl for these cars include what has been repaired such as timing belts etc; some even say that they have no repairs, which draws read flags. My main question is what does maintenance look like on '96 and/or '00-'02. Obviously, i know I should ask for carfaxes and what not, but say once i buy the car how often should i maintence it so it'll guarantee me a car that will last at least 2- 4 years before i sell it again. Also, does anyone recommend a certain year? I am working with a 4500$ budget. Thanks for the he
