Buying the 2016 Audi A7
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2016 Audi A7 for sale by us right now. Here is what to know about the 2016 Audi A7 before buying one.
What to check on the A7
There are 3 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. 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
It runs the 3.0L 6-cylinder turbo, with all-wheel drive. It runs on diesel, sold at most highway stations. With all-wheel drive, it pulls away more surely on slippery roads, though it does not stop any shorter.
Expect about 24 litres for every 300 km, going by its 7.9 L/100 km combined rating. Every 100 km costs about $12.25 in fuel at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,200 a year for 15,000 miles.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
How big it is
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. EPA lists 708 litres of luggage space, enough for bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Rent it for a week first
Rent the A7 first, and buy only if it fits your life. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.
Picking a year and a trim
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
Running costs
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $122.50 at our price setting. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$3,200 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Ready when you are
Ask about renting first, and buy with a clear head.
Rent it for a week before you buy
