Thinking of buying the 1996 Audi S6?
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 1996 Audi S6 for sale by us right now. Before buying the 1996 Audi S6, read what the figures say and how to try one first.
Before you sign for the S6
Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. There are 1 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.
What the specs mean
The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.
When the S6 makes sense
It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
Space, size and seats
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. The length is 4.89 m. Check the size of a tight parking spot.
A longer test drive
Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Rent first, buy later: a week with the S6 answers the big questions. If the S6 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.
Year and trim
Within the 1996 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
Running costs
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Make a request
Send a request to rent the model first, or ask us what we can do.
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 1996 Audi S6 from us first.
