Used Audi A4 Avant for Sale near Cedar Rapids, IA
Audi A4 Avant Overview
The Audi A4 is a mid-size luxury sedan that occupies the lower rung of the A lineup (in addition to the A6 and A8). Essentially Audi's entry-level car, the A4 introduced its Avant wagon in 1998, as an alternative to the growing popularity of gas-guzzling SUVs. The Avant wagon featured quattro technology, but with more car-like handling, without skimping on cargo room.
The original engines were a turbocharged 2.0-liter, 4-cylinder at 150-hp and a 3.2-liter V6 at 172-hp. The engines have remained the same over the years, while horsepower rose to 200 and 255 respectively with the second generation refresh in 2002. This new generation Avant also featured a lighter-weight aluminum suspension, for even better handling, fuel economy, and sporty feel. Interior space was also increased somewhat, but the A4 is the smallest of the A-class segment, and therefore rear legroom continues to be limited.
Aside from quattro performance, Audi is also known for its comfortable and upscale cabins, and the A4 Avant is a good combination of luxury and utilitarian convenience. Power features, leather seats, a sunroof, MP3 compatibility, wood accents, and dual-zone climate control are some of the long list of standard features. Plenty of option packages add on performanc-oriented equipment, safety features such as rear parking sensors, and added comfort in the form of heated seats. Safety is always a primary focus of Audi, and the A4 Avant is fully equipped with airbags, ABS brakes, and traction and stability control.
Though its functionality resembles the station wagons of yore, the A4 Avant is more a blend of car and SUV. The surefooted quattro makes it ideal in rough climates, while the smooth and quiet ride are equally at home in city commutes. Though smaller than some other wagons in terms of rear passenger room, most drivers generally love its style, comfort, and reliability.

Selden Motors in Willow Grove, PA sold us junk. Had to add oil on the way home (2 hour drive) and every 100-300 miles there after. Has other minor problems such as back up camera failing and water leaking through sunroof. But the kicker is the excessive oil burning burned up a valve in the engine and now it is shot. Warranty they sold us is junk and wont cover any of it. In the hole thousands of dollars thanks to their shady sales tactics.
Excellent handling and cargo space for long family trips. Reliable and easy to maintain if you know a good Audi certified mechanic. The sports package is a must have. Love the Bose sound system. Smooth driving experience. Solid feel on the road.
This is by far the best car I have ever had. Strong and reliable, stylish and fast, sporty and great Diesel mileage. Doesnt mater if you drive to work or go to the beach with your board, if you pick up your girl or have to drive long distance, if you go on gravel roads or the parking lot. This is it!
Fit and finish inside & out is excellent. Silky smooth handling. 8 way adjustable Sport seats provide outstanding driver comfort. Remembers 2 drivers settings. Rain sensing windshield wipers and automatic headlights are also pluses. Bluetooth interface easy to use. You won't find all these features at this price point elsewhere.
Going through the list: Performance is well above average and this is a really fun car to drive. There's a little bit of turbo lag, but once it kicks in the pull is strong. The quattro AWD is incredible and you truly feel glued to the road, even on the sharpest hairpins through these VA mountains. The car is solid, heavy, tightly fitted together. My car has 94K miles on it and I can't imagine that it was any smoother or more solid when it came off the factory floor. I've always loved hatchbacks and sport wagons and I think this is a beautiful example of great lines, balance, and an aggressive but not sinister design. The interior is simple, firm, comfortable, and luxurious, with heated seats, sunroof, 6 disc CD changer, trip computer, dual zone climate control, and a lot more. Gas mileage is decent (18/28) and I haven't put any money into the car for repairs. Considering the fact that it cost me less than $10K, which is far less than a USED Honda Civic, I couldn't be happier with this car.
