The AUDI A4 (2001-05) 4DR SALOON 1.8T 190 SPORT 6SPD is a compact executive saloon, an alternative to mainstream family cars, competing with the BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class. Its styling and roomy cabin suit everyday commuting, motorway journeys and small-family duties, while Sport trim gives it a purposeful feel. mycarcheck.com data shows 67 look-ups for this model, spanning 28 distinct VINs. The checked cars averaged 127,000 miles, around 5,000 miles a year, and just over five previous keepers. The average private-sale valuation was £300; this is an indication from the checks, not a guaranteed price or a full-market survey. The 1.8-litre turbo petrol engine and six-speed manual make this A4 livelier than a family saloon, with passing power; expect fuel and maintenance costs to reflect its age and performance. It suits drivers wanting a comfortable used Audi with more character than a commuter car, rather than prioritising low-cost motoring.
