Hello!

Last week I bought from Germany from an Audi dealer an Allroad 3.0 TDI Tiptronic with 15.000 kms on the clock first reg. 07/06. The car is by far the best I ever owned (previous cars Mercedes E230 '90 and BMW 528i '97). This is my first Audi and after a lot of thinking to change brand I must admit that I did very well indeed!

After 2.500 kms and seven days of ownership the car drives and feels great. The engine is brilliant (my first diesel) and feels as smooth as BMW's straight six even though it's a diesel.

Torque is unbelievable, you can just overtake everything with no hassle and bear in mind the extra weight (nearly 2 tonnes). The suspension is brilliant as well, I like the "Lift" setting which is so useful for easy off-road terrain. In everyday driving I have set it to "Comfort" and motorways at "Automatic".

Fuel consumption is better than my petrol ex BMW 528i auto, at 7.2l/100km on a trip of 600 km on motorways and speeds at 130 km/h. Everyday mixed driving at 9.2l/100km.

Here are some photos:

 

Welcome to the forums!

I wish I could pick up a Diesel model here in Canada, the power and fuel economy can't be beat IMO. I drove one in Germany this summer and it was an awesome experience

 

Indeed m8! As said above this is my first diesel ever anddon't regret it at all. I think I won't buy a petrol car again!

 

What a beautiful car. I wish we could get diesels here in the US.

 

NICE! Audi hasn't even released a C6 All-Road to those of us state-side yet. What a beautiful car! With some luck we will have them next year,... and with some more luck, DIESELS! I think we all need to write to Audi about their Diesels.

 

And here is my first mod tinted windows:

 

Those tinted windows look absolutely awesome, congrats on the purchase again by the way.

 

Indeed! Tinted windows look great on silver grey color.
