Default A4 Long Term Reliability?

I don't personally know anyone that has owned an Audi so I'm hoping to get some help on this forum.<p>I'm strongly considering purchasing an A4 Quatro 1.8T or 2.8 and was hoping to get some feedback as to how A4s' hold up over many years - both in general and especially the Turbo engine.<p>I've previously owned Japanese cars - Acura's, Honda's and Infiniti's and they have held up great to well over 100k.<p>Any feedback is appreciated!<p>Thanks

Default How about four B5 cars with 100,000 miles?

Combined, that is...<p>1996 A4 2.8 Quattro (60,000 mi)<br>1997 A4 1.8 Turbo Quattro (25,000 mi)<br>1998 B5 2.8 FWD (10,000 mi)<br>1999 A4 1.8 Turbo Quattro (5,000 mi)<p>No problems here :-)<p>No problems with an Audi 5000S that we had for a lot more than 100,000 miles.<p>Cameron
