New & proud owner of a used 2001 A6 2.7T purchased yesterday

I have to say in my 35+ years of driving both in the UK and in the US (Washington State), I can honestly say that this car is the most enjoyable, top-of-the-line car I've ever driven. A real drivers car.

I'm like a kid at Christmas playing with a new toy!

Last night, I went to (or tried to) go to my local supermarket which is about 2.5 miles away from my house, 75 miles and almost 2 hours later I arrived back home without my gallon of milk due to the sheer enjoyment of driving my car haha. Does this happen to other people too?

Anywho, I'm sure I'll be a frequent visitor to this forum to seek much needed advice and other tidbits that I'm sure will come to me as I try to get familiar with my car......No darn owners manual

The Brit...

 

Yeah, I've got the same problem.

Congrats on the new Car!

 

6 months later i still have the same problem. i took a trip down to my schools state championship game at rutgers stadium, about an hour from my house. did about a buck the whole way down . got there in 29 minutes lol, still as much of a pleasure to drive as the 1st day i brought her home.

 

man...I can relate..I look for reasons to get behind the wheel of my a6....

 

one of my friends has stated that riding with me is like "taking the long way everywhere"
