Default NEW TO FORUM: Is this a good deal?

Hey everyone,

Im new to the forums, and I was curious if this was a good deal. It will be my first car and I want something that will be somewhat reliable.

It is a 2007 Audi A4 2.0L Quattro with 62,500 miles with a clean title

It has these options: 6 CD disc changer, Moonroof, Cold Weather package, Dual Power Heated Leather Seats, Traction Control, Premium Sound System

Is there anything I should look out for?

Thanks for any help.

9 year old Audi and reliability are not necessarily the first things i would think of for a first car. Perhaps a new Japanese model with a better reliability reputation may be more appropriate. Having said that I have a 2005 and a 2008 A4. While the 2005 is showing signs of age I'm prepared to spend money on ongoing maintenance sinceboth cars are so nice to drive.


Even though the mileage on the car you are looking at is low, it is due for a timing belt and fuel pump cam follower replacement unless you have proof they have been done recently. Elapsed ime is a decision factor for replacing the timing belt.


Audi's are fun cars to drive, so decide if that driving experience is worth any money to you - I know that is my reason; IMO there are many less expensive cars around but I remain an Audi fan.

I have a 2.0t quattro 2005, I love it. Got it with 92k miles on it but it was beautiful clean, no real issues and I love it so much I've started buying tools and researching like a mad man on here. Replaced the Cam Follower and PCV Valve last weekend. Replacing the Fuel Pump next weekend and the plugs/ignition packs as well. Fun to drive, relatively easy to do the maintainence type stuff you might be ballsy enough to try. I suggest it.
