- How Much Car Can You Get For Your Money? Audi A6 C6 Avant Se 3.0 TDI Throwback Review
Hello guys, welcome back to Car Obsession, and welcome to another 'Throwback Review'. This is the series in which I test cars from yesteryear, and this time it's the turn of my very own Audi A6 C6 Avant, otherwise known as 'Ewan'.
He is powered by a 3.0 litre V6 diesel, which offers around 230hp and 450Nm of torque. This would normally be mated to a 6-speed manual, but as an option this has the 6-speed Tiptronic automatic. The power is fed to all four wheels thanks to Audi's quattro system. 0-62 is dealt with a little over 7 seconds, and the top speed is a little north of 150mph.
When this car was brand new, the SE would have started from £24,175, although that would have been for the 2.4 litre petrol with a 6-speed manual without quattro. This car in particular would have started from £32,310.
Standard features would have included 17” alloys, automatic headlights, dual-zone climate control, cruise control, a 10-speaker CD system, MMI Basic Plus to name a few. Ewan was treated to a few options, though, including auto-dimming rear view mirror, Bose sound system, Phantom Black paint, Black Valcona Leather, electronically adjustable head front seats, Walnut trim, 6-speed Tiptronic gearbox, and the Communications Pack 2. This included DVD based sat nav, 6-CD changer, MMI High with 7” display and mobile phone preparation. The A6 also had a decent amount of safety systems for the time, helping it to earn 5 stars for adult occupant safety.

![FINALLY Modifying My CHEAP Project Car [FIAT Seicento Sporting]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/tXL7TssR4K0/mqdefault.jpg)
Lovely comfortable and practical cars. I swear the doors are 3 feet thick on this generation, they feel so solid. My father in law has a 59 reg 2.0TDI with 270k miles on the clock which is still going down the road and passing MoT's. He's had to put in a reconditioned turbo and replace oil pump during his ownership but still it's amazing really
Were it not for the high prices and even higher repair costs I’d have two of them. One of my favourite cars of all time, perfect time for both simplicity and complexity in a car; great sounding 3.0TDI which any C6 owner will recognise immediately, a stunningly smooth driving experience - as a passenger you feel like you’re gliding a couple of inches above the ground… excellent automatic gearbox and a great range. Had one in my family bought new, drove us like a champ for 350-360k km, sadly at the end (ca. 2020) the repair costs weren’t really worth it. God do I miss it.
Mine is a C6 Allroad, air suspension with 17” rims…really enjoy making secondary roads in comfort mode…or using Allroad/lift mode to run trails to reach waterfalls or other beautiful landscapes.
I have the 3.0 TDI Le Mans Quattro 2009 which has 120k miles and it drives so nice and pulls well in sport, the Quattro drive system pulls it round the corners really well and is great for rapid cross country trips or long motorway journeys.
Yeah, great car, isn't it? Thanks for watching 👍🏽.
I remember thinking that's risky buying a car like that soo cheap but turned out to be one hell of a bargain
Yeah, don't get me wrong, I've had to put a bit of money in to him, but nothing excessive especially given the age and mileage. Mostly just maintenance stuff as opposed to expensive repairs. Thanks for watching.
Good review
Thank you! Thanks for watching 👍🏽.
Just bought an Allroad for the same money. Assumed it was cheap because of the VED
I suspect the reason you don't like the Multitronic CVT is that you simply don't understand how it works, compared to a torque converter fuel wasting conventional Tiptronic slush box auto the Multitronic is a huge improvement, took my 2.7tdi to Kent and back yesterday, 480 miles, it returned 47.7mpg
Hi there, I understand how a CVT works, but thank you for the comment. I will confess, I don't think I've tried the Multitronic CVT, but I've driven a few cars with CVTs and I'm not a fan. Thanks for watching.
Can tell you know your car well Aaron 👌
Cheers Sam!
FIRST 😎
Keith is still better #NotWrong
