The AUDI A6 (1997-04) 4DR SALOON 2.4 V6 170 QUATTRO SE TIP AUTO is a large, premium four-door saloon, aimed at buyers wanting more comfort and space than a family hatchback. In the UK used-car market it sits among established executive cars, competing with period BMW 5 Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class models. With its V6 petrol engine, automatic gearbox and Quattro all-wheel drive, this SE version offers smooth, relaxed progress and confidence in poor weather. The spacious cabin and boot suit family trips, motorway commuting and longer journeys, while its understated styling gives it a more discreet feel than some sporty rivals. mycarcheck.com records only two checks and one VIN for this specification, so treat the figures as a small, useful snapshot. Those checks show an average private-sale valuation of £700, mileage of 145,000 and three previous keepers. For buyers, condition and service history matter greatly on an older, high-mileage executive car.
