The AUDI A4 (2005-08) 5DR AVANT 3.0 TDI QUATTRO 204 is a premium five-door estate with more load space than the saloon and easier parking than a large SUV. In the UK, it offers an upmarket alternative to the BMW 3 Series Touring and Mercedes-Benz C-Class Estate. Its strong diesel engine and four-wheel drive provide brisk performance and reassuring grip in poor weather. A comfortable cabin and useful boot make it well suited to families, commuters and longer trips. It feels more refined and capable than an ordinary estate, though fuel and maintenance costs can exceed those of smaller rivals. Mycarcheck.com data is limited: five look-ups covered one VIN, so the figures are indicative, not a market-wide average. Recorded averages are £600 private-sale value, 240,000 miles, 6,000 miles a year and 4.2 previous keepers. These figures make a careful history and condition check important when considering this high-mileage AUDI A4 Avant example.
