Thumbs up New to the forum, new to audi

Hey guys,
Im from kitchener/waterloo area and i just got an 1998 a4 1.8T quattro.

I drove yesterday all the way to sudbury about 5 hours away from here to get something i like to call a great deal.

So I got it for $4500CAD (roughly $4000USD), which is a lot lower that what i could find on kijiji, ebay or even autotrader, it has 158k, turbo has been rebuilt, no leaks, no problems whatsoever, runs great, drove it yesterday for 5 hrs straight and it did pretty good on gas, about 7.1L/100km, i am quite impressed (i have a toyota supra which has an inline 6 and that one is like 12L/100km even on hwy)

so i got 2 sets of tires, it has leather interior, all power, sunroof...the only downfalls is that it has 2 small rust spots, which i will get fixed next week hopefully and a tear on the driver seat, which you almost never see since you sit on it.. i has tinted windows that look great, and thats about it

i am looking to either polish my headlights or replace them with something cleaner and maybe get some nice rims...not sure if i am lowering it or not...

i had vw's before and i loved them, now this audi is like a vw on steroids....i love it...



peace&love

Great welcome. Enjoy and drive safely.

goos mileage for this car. They say the new one is 10% less but does as good. Weird!

Congrats on the great deal! A4's are great for mileage with their lean design. Peppy little car and open for lots of upgrades. Best of luck to you and your car!
