Before you sign for the A4

Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.

What the figures tell you

Its 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo drives through a 7-speed automatic. 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.

Rated at 7.9 L/100 km combined, it needs around 24 litres for a 300 km round trip. Every 100 km costs about $13.83 in fuel at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

How big it is

A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. At 4.76 m from bumper to bumper, it is on the long side. Check the size of a tight parking spot. Its 368 litres of luggage space fit about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

A good match for

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.

Drive it on your own roads

If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Rent first, buy later: a week with the A4 answers the big questions.

Running costs

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$2,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Choosing the right one

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. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
