I'm now a couple months with my 2014 Allroad, and I have to say I really am impressed with the car. Its ride, engine and transmission, ergonomics, comfort, build quality, and richness of the interior, are all excellent. It handles exceptionally well, and notwithstanding its substantial weight, feels nimble.

Roger,

Great to hear. I have some good news for your. I'm 2 1/2 year and 45k miles down the road in my 2013 allroad and absoluately love it. Every day I get in it to drive and have the same feeling I did on first day I brought it home from the dealership.

Wishing you a lot of happy miles and a very Merry Christmas.

That's certainly very encouraging. Thanks for chiming in.

Merry Christmas to you, as well.

I second the encouraging experience. My '14 allroad is now one year and three months old (23,000kms) and it drives like new. It's now in a second Canadian winter with temps reaching -35C/-31F and deep ice ruts on the roads. I installed the Audi 17" winter wheel and tire package and the vehicle drives with confidence. The only hiccups were a premature fault with the passenger LED DRL which required the entire headlight assembly to be replaced, under warranty, and the airbag software update recall.

Greetings from a fellow Canadian. I'm on the east coast, and like you, have installed 17" winter wheels (Rial Bavaro) and tires (Michelin X-ice Xi3).

I'm delighted to hear how well your Allroad is doing.

That's good. Love my 2013 black on black allroad. It's a smooth cruiser and has a much sportier ride than SUVs. And very comfy for long drives. What I'm really happy about is that I just paid it off last month, and got the clean title from the DMV last week. No more car loans It's truly mine

It really is one of the smoothest running, comfortable, sporty yet economical and all-purpose vehicles I've ever owned and I've had quite a few wagons and SUV's. The low end torque from its 4-cyl never ceases to impress me.
Mine is a couple months shy of two years old and no problems.

btw: I was looking at a Porsche Macan the other day and I would have to spend a large fortune to recreate what I already have and only gain a bit of top end power I'd never use. Great value Audi!

Regarding the Macan, I took a long hard look at them before buying my Allroad. Although the Macan is quicker, and handles better, it has MUCH less cargo space behind the back seat, and, as you said, to equip it the way you (or I) would want it would cost a small fortune - essentially twice what I paid for my 2014 with 5k miles on it.

I didn't have the Macan in the list while shopping. In my opinion the allroad is a much better looking car.
