Thinking of buying the 2010 Audi A6?
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2010 Audi A6 for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Buying the 2010 Audi A6 is a big decision; here is the information we have.
Recalls and complaints
Owners filed 17 complaints with NHTSA, most often about air bags, engine and engine cooling and seat belts; have those parts checked. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.
What the specs mean
It uses the 3.2L 6-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Fuel use is rated 10.7 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 32 litres. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $18.72 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Size and space
Being a mid-size car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. The trunk holds 453 litres by the EPA's count: a family's bags for a long weekend.
Best uses
It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.
A longer test drive
Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. If the A6 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.
Money matters
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $187.20 at our price setting. Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular.
Narrowing it down
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
Next step
Tell us the model and the dates, and we reply with an offer.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2010 Audi A6 from us first.
