The 2008 Audi S6: before you buy
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2008 Audi S6 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. Here is what to know about the 2008 Audi S6 before buying one.
Recalls and complaints
Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. NHTSA has 2 owner complaints on file, mostly about air bags and seat belts. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.
The numbers in plain words
The engine is the 5.2L 10-cylinder, with all-wheel drive and a 6-speed automatic. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. With all-wheel drive, it pulls away more surely on slippery roads, though it does not stop any shorter.
At 14.7 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 44 litres of fuel. Expect about $25.73 per 100 km at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$5,150 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
The S6 in everyday use
Being a mid-size car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. With 453 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes a family's bags for a long weekend.
A good match for
It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
Drive it on your own roads
A test week in the S6 tells you more than any review. 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.
Running costs
Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $25.73 in fuel.
Picking a year and a trim
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
