The AUDI A4 (2001-05) 4DR SALOON 1.6 is a compact executive saloon: a four-door family car with a more premium feel than mainstream alternatives. In the UK used market, it competes with the BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class. Its understated styling, roomy cabin and practical boot suit everyday life. The 1.6-litre petrol engine makes this A4 best for commuting, errands and modest family duties rather than quick performance. It may appeal to couples, small families and buyers wanting an established badge for relatively little money. The saloon offers a calm, composed drive and a more traditional, solid-feeling alternative to similarly aged family hatchbacks.
