Well after nearly 4 years of happy Octavia ownership (2017 1.4 TSI DSG SEL estate), we've just bought our new (to us) car. Plenty of equity in the Octy.

 

Following in my late father's footsteps, we've gone for an Audi A4 Avant in Manhattan grey. It's a 2020 reg approved used from Derby Audi. 45k miles 35 TDI (2.0 163ps) Auto. 2 years free servicing, 2 years breakdown cover and 2 years warranty. 

 

It's the Technik spec which is 'entry level' yet has equal or more gizmos than my SEL Octy. Digital drivers display with Nav, heated seats, electric powered tailgate, LED headlights, auto dipping wing mirrors when reversing, 3 zone climate control and more besides. 

 

Very impressed with the test drive and amazing how much quieter it is despite being diesel and how good it is at soaking up the bumps. Plenty of strong pull from the engine. I went for diesel due to a large increase in commuting distance, largely cruising down A38. 

 

The Technik spec wheel size (17") meant that I can keep my Michelin Cross Climate 2 tyres and will swap them over on collection day. Need them here in the Derbyshire Dales 👍

Looking forward to collection day. 😀

May your Avant give you many quiet, bump smoothing, economical miles 👋
