The AUDI A6 (1997-04) 4DR SALOON 2.4 V6 QUATTRO SE TIP AUTO is a large, four-door executive saloon, aimed at buyers wanting more space and comfort than a family hatchback. In the UK used-car market it sits among premium alternatives such as the BMW 5 Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class, offering a discreet, traditional look rather than an SUV’s high ride. The mycarcheck.com picture is based on just three look-ups and two different VINs, so treat the figures as a small snapshot, not a market-wide guide. Those checks show an average private-sale value of £500, mileage of 121,000 and 4.7 previous keepers; average annual mileage was 10,000. With its automatic gearbox, V6 petrol engine and Quattro four-wheel drive, this A6 suits longer journeys, commuters and families needing a cabin. Its assured feel and traction set it apart, though age, running costs and condition matter; compare history and check records before buying.
