General Comments

I ordered the Audi A4 TDi Sport 1.9TDi 130 6sp in silver, and it was specified as having body colour bumpers 2004 model. On delivery not even the top bumpers match the bottom bumpers, and against the body the colour is awful. Audi have inspected it and say it is within tolerence. I am a qualified assessor dealing in Motor Accident Repair and would state that it is not of a commercially acceptable standard. Audi's answer was for me to try another dealer? The car itself is superb, but the aftercare is not of a standard that you would expect from a quality marque. If it had been a Ford Fiesta, then it would have been rectified by Ford. My advice is buy a solid colour and keep away from the metallics and Pearls.

    I am very suprised that the reviewer finds Audi customer care poor. I have had Audis for 6 years and have nothing but praise for the after care. I comented that the stereo in my almost three year old car was "being difficult" as I left my car for a routine service. When I returned the whole stereo had been replaced under warranty - they couldn't identify the fault but as the car had only one weeks warranty left they replaced it anyway. Only once has any of my Audis let me down -Audi Roadside Recovery was with me in half an hour and I was mobile again within 10 minutes. My local dealership contacted me the following day to arrange "for the fault to be examined in more detail - under warranty of course". I beleive this is what we should expect for what we pay!
