This premium-badged estate is mind-blowingly affordable if you buy used, but what do you need to watch out for? That's where our buying guide comes in
executive saloon, one of our very favourite cars, both new and used. What's the appeal of the Avant? Well, it adds a larger and more practical boot. What's more, the engine range of the A4 Avant mirrors that of the saloon, meaning four-cylinder petrols are offered alongside four and six-cylinder diesels, with front and quattro all-wheel drive and six-speed manual and seven-speed S tronic dual-clutch automatic transmissions.
While the A4 is in its element on the motorway, it’s not as exciting to drive as the BMW 3 Series, with the steering lacking anything in the way of feel and the suspension not giving the same sense of agility. Ride quality is also rather poor in the larger-wheeled S line and Ultra models, which also have lowered and stiffened suspension, although the optional adaptive dampers resolve this, if you can find a car so equipped.
It’s a sharp-looking car on the outside and is arguably even better inside, with a thoroughly modern design and exquisite, class-leading build quality. The driving position is good, and there’s plenty of space for passengers front and rear. The dash looks classy, and the infotainment system is first-class.
You’ll also find the A4 Avant is a comfortable car, too, with a smooth ride and eager handling. But its main selling feature is its refinement, which is particularly good even with the diesel-engined options.
