Auto loans: the 2001 Audi A4
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2001 Audi A4 for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Thinking about the 2001 Audi A4? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.
What to check on the A4
Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.
What the figures tell you
The engine is the 1.8L 4-cylinder turbo, with front-wheel drive and a 5-speed manual. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Fuel use is rated 10.2 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 31 litres. For 1,000 km, budget about $178.50 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$3,550 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Size and space
As a compact car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. EPA lists 396 litres of luggage space, enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Best uses
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
Drive it on your own roads
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. A test week in the A4 tells you more than any review. Rent the A4 for a week and see how it fits your life.
The cost of driving it
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. The EPA estimates US$3,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Picking a year and a trim
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
Questions first?
Ask about renting first, and buy with a clear head.
Rent it for a week before you buy
