Thinking of buying the 2000 Audi A6?
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2000 Audi A6 for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. We do not lease cars. A monthly rental has no long contract: each booking runs up to 365 days. Before you buy the 2000 Audi A6, here is what the figures say and what to look at.
Before you sign for the A6
NHTSA has 148 owner complaints on file, mostly about electrical system, service brakes and engine and engine cooling. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
What the specs mean
The 2.7L 6-cylinder turbo is what moves it, with all-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.
Plan on about 39 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 13.1 L/100 km. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $22.93. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$4,550 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Space, size and seats
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. Length: 4.88 m. Check the size of a tight parking spot. In plain terms, its 425 litres of luggage space hold a family's bags for a long weekend.
Best uses
Its all-wheel drive suits winter roads and trips to ski country. It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size.
Drive it on your own roads
A test week in the A6 tells you more than any review. Rent the A6 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.
Running costs
The EPA estimates US$4,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $22.93 in fuel.
Which one to look for
If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
Send a request
Tell us the model and the dates, and we reply with an offer.
Rent it for a week before you buy
