Agreed. The B6 was a very elegant and classy car, this is where Audi decided to abandon that and go all shouty. It’s worked out for them, it feels like there are more Audis than people but it’s a shame that we don’t get these smooth, understated cars any more.
Still got mine. 2005 2Ltr TFSI Avant auto. It's quite fast, reliable and just goes on and on. It's the family useful wagon. Still think it looks tight and together.
I love the B7! Have to comment on this on! The 2010 Passat Estate we have, has no soul compared to the B7. Also one of the nicest indicator ticks and an interior of pure quality. Also.. I had a ride in a Corsa C yesterday. I think you must get one on the channel! For my generation the SXI with the white dials, was the bees knees at the time! I have a soft spot for them and they are a decent car. 😊👍
I bought a b7 avant 7 months ago, bought it on 140k miles. I am now about to hit 156k miles. Cant see myself changing my car for the foreseeable future (even though i am now in a position to buy a much newer car) i cant see myself parting with my b7 😊
Thinking man's alternative - that's an interesting one - the thinking man's car used to be Saab. Perhaps older Audi versus newer. Newer they seem to be company cars, lease agreements/contract hires etc. and the quick ones often seem to be the domain of (trying to be polite here and avoid cliché) those who lack consideration of other drivers. This particular car I think the thinking tag would apply - Audis of this age and mileage often owned and driven by the people who actually appreciate them and put in the work to keep them on the road, not always easy to fix and maintain (ties, auxbelts/cambelts, tensioners, bumper off jobs etc) but reward the effort. (That's what I tell myself)
Great video - I am on my second Seat Exeo Estate - my first I sold at 225k miles - my current one is on 146k. They are fantastic cars - all attributes of the original B7 with a bit of Spanish flair. The dash is from the B7 convertible. Both mine were the 2.0TDi and they give 50mpg or more on a long run - no idea what I will eventually replace my current one with . My kids named the first one Alice and my current one Miles!
Must be something about naming them, my Exeo ST is called Fred by my eldest 😂 Done 112k now and the plan is keeping him for a very, very long time. Had him for 8 years now, done the cambelt myself twice on age and a couple of other minor bits but not much. Best car I've ever had by absolutely miles!
Interesting that Matt compares this to an E46, when the E90 is the equivalent at the time (E46 was out of production in '06). Comparing my E46 with my brother-in-law's B7, I'd say the B7 has better build quality & refinement, but the BMW has it easily beat as a driving experience. Both (in some guises) run into reliability issues (oil pumps, vanos flaps, timing chains).
I would disagree. I owned an E46 and E91, and my friend has a B7. The quality is completely incomparable. Hard scratchy plastics abound the B7 interior, you get no footwell lights or vanity mirror lights on most models, unlike their German rivals; even the centre console (which is solid as a rock in the BMWs) creaks and moves around when you push it. The dashboard where your knee rests is horrible scratchy plastic. They also handle like they’ve got no front wheels, and have front wheel drive so traction is terrible in the wet. They’re really not very good cars compared to actually premium marques of BMW and Mercedes
The last really good Audi, quality interior puts today’s cars to shame. I had a very base 5 speed 2ltr petrol that drank oil like Oliver Reed drank beer !
Yep, avoid the 2 lt tfsi petrol. I had one from 2 years old, it used 1 litre of oil for 600 miles which Audi deemed within tolerance! Fine if you own an oil well.
Had a 52 plate 2003 A4 1.8 turbo petrol for about 8 years... Always loved it although had a few big bills but bought high miles - really nice comfortable in interior was my main like
I had a 2006 1.8T B7 avant. It had the cvt box which was ok. Not great for sporty driving even in sport mode but fine for cruising. One of the best cars I’ve owned and a great load lugger. I found the rear a little tight for legroom though. Shame it was written off although that allowed me got get my w124 coupe!
A fire extinguisher should always be where one can grab it from the driving seat as one exits the vehicle after releasing the bonnet, but don't open it, squirt the extinguisher through the gap. Split seconds count as one who had an engine bay fire on a Motorway at 60, luckily already in inside lane when the smoke was noticed. A couple of seconds more may have made the difference between a new loom and a bonnet and front wing respray compared to a total loss. A 1Kg is the minimum size one should have, a proper quality one not those cheap aerosol looking things. Like the extinguishers and fire blanket in one's home one hopes they are the purchases that are never used. I hope you have a couple in the barn.
Great review. A friend had a B6 2.5tdi back then, fond memories of blasting it down the Autobahn 😅 I must say I like the B6 better for the looks, the B7 is a bit fussy in the lights department
This was when Audi still made nice cars not the current ugly, over styled monstrosities! My mum had a B7 Tdi sedan, and the interior in leather was a fantastic place to be! I always preferred the B7, which IMO fixed the bland and nondescript looks of the B6.
Just bought a 170 TDI B7 Avant as a daily hack... great car, just remember to check the oil pump hex drive has been sorted... otherwise it's a ticking time bomb. :)
I'm about to buy a TDI 170 S Line, it's had the 13D7 recall campaign done back in 2008 when the car had done 5k miles, now only on 56k miles, it's so mint. Not a leak or even a weep from anywhere. The 13D7 recall seems to convert the chain / pulley system for the oil pump to direct gear drive...but still has the dreaded hex key. Did you upgrade your oil pump may I ask?
I had the same model, but the saloon version. It had a radio\cassette (?!) player plus separate CD. It had done 130k when I traded it in (and only because the DPF & turbo had to be replaced and decided more things would eventually start to go wrong) for a Mk2 Audi TT. The A4 was very comfy and replaced a Rover 45 which was very dated for a car of a similar age.
All day long. We have a D5 engined XC90 in the family. 180,000 miles on it, and apart from a set of swirl flaps, the engine has had routine servicing only. Goes well, and doesn't use oil.
Gosh Matt you could have done a 15 minute video just on engine sizes and yeah for quality Audi is great but way way overpriced at new. Single cup holder is fine by me because no one loves me 😂 and so I make my Mrs ride in that huge boot and dogs love the company 😁, great detailed video Matt and your definitely getting better at this RUclips lark 😂👍🏻.
Saw this and thought for a second you had come and pinched my B7 for review! Mine's the exact same spec as this with the exception of the colour DIS, Nav and auto lights. 2L TDI 140 with a map and it's currently on 219k miles! These are absolute bomb proof cars
These big Audis are odd cars by modern standards with their longitudinal engines driving the front wheels. Presumably they stuck with that layout because they placed maximum design effort into the Quattro models, where such an engine layout made more sense.
Since this model Audi I have always had trouble distinguishing the cheapest base model with the most expensive luxury model. They just all look the same to me. Fantastic cars but the “sameness” of looks across all the models puts me off.
Yes astonishingly reliable however, when it does go wrong the replacement parts will cost you an arm and a leg. In fact so much that you will scrap the car. All German cars are very expensive on spare parts and always have been. Back in 1972 a replacement rear bumper for an Austin Mini cost £5. However, a replacement rear bumper for a VW Beetle was £50. Also back in those times Ford spares were far cheaper than German spares.
Not really true. OEM parts are cheap, if you shop around. VAG cars, which share so much, are so common throughout Europe and sold in such huge numbers, you're very grateful of it, if you have the rare incident driving there too (only time mine broke down in Spain it was 35 euros to fix - a small pipe) - try that with the Jags I once had. Whilst they're not worth much now and most anything you do will not add value, they can be very cheap to maintain. Discs all round for example on my almost identical A4 to this, were a 100 quid fitted and they are still good after 5 years. Servicing is cheap too at a good specialist.
The thinking man needs to think twice. These engines are notorious for failing oil pumps. The hexagonal drive for it rounds, resulting in zero oil pressure.
The B7 A4 avant is great car. I have the bigger brother C6 A6 Avant 2.0tdi which has much more space and not much more in term of running costs to own.
7 Degrees cold ❄️❄️?? That's tropical where I am lol 🤣🤣 I like the Audi's of this era and the always preferred the Avant's over the Saloons. I remember on my honeymoon back in 2009 in the lake District looking at a picture of the Seat Exeo and thinking that's very Audi A4 Looking! Great review as always Matt, Shame it's bit ULEZ compliant might have been a nice replacement for the Merc.
Despite your despise of SUVs you are steadily closing in on my two latest cars, the Hyundai Santa Fe petrol V6 2001 automatic and my latest the 2014 (last Swedish buildt) Volvo XC90 2.4Liter 200Hp turbo diesel automatic. The first, noisy with plastic interior despite leather seats and jumpy if not loaded, the second one, stiff as a bench with it's R-sport design and suspension. Neither optimal for our potatofieldlike roads. But they move when using the throttle and at least the 2.2 ton XC90 is leaner on the floating gold. :)
Funny, as I was in the market for both of those cars specifically a few years ago, (the xc90 being the oldest ones), as well as the Nissan x-trail. Test drove quite a few.. in the end I decided to buy....A Porsche Cayenne. Probably the only guy cross-shopping that variety of SUVs, ever? Oh and trust me, the Hyundai is a fuel miser compared to what I ended up with, so it could always be worse..
@@GoldenCroc oh, as I normally drive around 25km to work it has had a habit of drinking around 12liter/100km. The XC90 uses 8.5liters/100km. I bought the Santa Fe from my mom as it was a relative low miler and the XC90 to fit my whole family and being a Swede I think there will be spare parts for a long time here. But my economy stops me from getting any Porsche despite those having many VW components. I usually drive mine until there is nothing to sell left. Having had only 7 cars in my own name for 42 years now... I tell my self I'm envorimentally good! ;)
We've got an XC90 200hp but it's an SE Lux, so has the soft suspension and sensible 18" wheels. Rides really well. 180,000 miles and it's needed virtually nothing other than routine servicing and consumables. Pulls a horsebox like it's not even there, and still drives like a new car.
Matt if you're ever around The Black Country, You're more than welcome to come and review my A5 B8 3.0 V6 Tdi 320bhp & 680NM makes it a fun daily driver!
No comparison between that and your Mercedes. I had a 2007 A6 diesel and I’ve had numerous Mercedes over the years. Everything about Mercedes is superior (or used to be)
I’ve never understood the hype with these cars. The steering, gearbox, and pedals all lack feeling completely, and they’re all horribly imbalanced with the engine hanging 10 yards over the front axle. Ive owned an E46 and E91, and my friend has a B7. The quality is completely incomparable. Hard scratchy plastics abound the B7 interior, you get no footwell lights or vanity mirror lights on most models, unlike their German rivals; even the centre console (which is solid as a rock in the BMWs) creaks and moves around when you push it.

I love the B7 so much! This was the first car I properly worked on and have very fond memories driving it. Brilliant well built machines.
The pre-facelift A4 is soooo much better looking.

This is the best looking a4 ever, it still looks fresh today imho but I see what you mean
Damn share what ever crack you're smoking😂
Totally disagree. The B6 variant looks underwhelming, dumpy and old. The b7 is the most elegant A4 ever, even better than the B5.

whenever FD drives a fairly powerful , manual Estate car .. sometimes i wonder is this a review or a test-drive ?? .. lol
I recognise a lot of the parts and switches from the Audi A2 i had which came out 8 years before the B7, that VW parts bin stretched a long way.
Simply a car review video about an Audi in a way only which Mr Furious does it, more please Matt.

At least it saved you having to replace or repair the gearbox, which is a 'when not if' on the Multitronic.

I used to have a VW Passat 1.9TDI 130bhp SE 4motion based on the Audi A4 B5.5. If I was looking for an A4, I'd buy the Quattro.
Fantastic design and build, I had a C5 Avant so similar. I'd happily daily this as it doesn't have any touch screens!

Those audis are good quality cars i had a few of them one at 220k. They do suffer from rust on the front wings quite common fault with audis.
Just sold my a4 avant in graphite grey 06. 2.0 170 sport line. 186,000 on the clock. Engine was sweat as nut but components were costing too much.
Lumber is for back support, you can adjust it.
