Auto loans: the 2013 Audi A6
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2013 Audi A6 for sale by us right now. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Before you buy the 2013 Audi A6, see the figures and the checks worth doing.
Before you sign for the A6
Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. There are 6 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Owners filed 52 complaints with NHTSA, most often about air bags, engine and unknown or other; have those parts checked. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.
Specs, explained
Power comes from the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo, driving through an automatic (CVT). 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.
By the EPA's combined rating of 8.5 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 26 litres. In energy, every 100 km costs about $14.88 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,950 a year for 15,000 miles.
What to expect from the A6
As a mid-size car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. For luggage, 453 litres means a family's bags for a long weekend.
Who the A6 suits
It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.
A longer test drive
If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Rent the A6 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Rent the A6 for a week and see how it fits your life.
Running costs
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.
Narrowing it down
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
