The AUDI A4 (2001-05) 4DR SALOON 2.4 SPORT 6SPD is a compact executive saloon: a four-door family car with a more upmarket feel than a small hatchback. In the UK used-car market, it competes with the BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class, appealing to buyers wanting a smart, comfortable everyday car. The 2.4-litre petrol engine and six-speed manual give Sport version an engaging character, while the saloon provides room for passengers and luggage. It suits commuters, couples and families seeking a long-distance car, rather than drivers prioritising the lowest running costs. Compared with family cars, the A4 feels premium and distinctive. mycarcheck.com recorded 11 look-ups covering eight distinct VINs, a limited snapshot. These checks show average recorded mileage of 107,000 miles, annual mileage of 5,000 and about five previous keepers. The average private-sale valuation was £300, but any car’s condition, service history and age should guide a buying decision.
