Buying the 2002 Audi A6
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2002 Audi A6 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. Here is what to know about the 2002 Audi A6 before buying one.
What to check on the A6
A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. NHTSA has 88 owner complaints on file, mostly about electrical system, engine and engine cooling and service brakes.
The figures, translated
It uses the 3.0L 6-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Combined fuel use is 12.4 L/100 km: about 37 litres for 300 km. Driving 300 km costs roughly $65.10 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$4,350 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
How big it is
As a mid-size car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. Luggage space is rated at 425 litres: a family's bags for a long weekend.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size.
Drive it on your own roads
Rent the A6 first, and buy only if it fits your life. 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.
The cost of driving it
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $217 at our price setting. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $21.70 in fuel. Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular.
Which one to look for
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
Over to you
Tell us the car you are considering, and we will help where we can.
