ChadW Posted April 6, 2004 Report Share Posted April 6, 2004 Very good review of new Audi A6 on Fifth Gear last night, absolutely nothing bad was said about the car. Hoorah! Really like this car myself, my 1st sensible car in the years to come, possibly, have to have the V8 though..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eolair Posted April 6, 2004 Report Share Posted April 6, 2004 good to see it got +ve review, but ... the review itself was sh1te - told us v little except that the boot is big, there are new crease lines, quatro makes it hold the road. No real critique given. This wouldnt convince any non-audi fanboy to jump ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] Yeah no what you mean but suppose being an ITV esque channel and an half hour slot it going to be a bit womans mag type reviews. Good to see a nice review though. Think the new design itself will work, especially when the new Fords and Peugeots are out as most manufacturers seem to be going for large central radiator grills. Also it may attract more Alfa drivers if anything, people who want something different to look at but with a more reliable vehicle too. Then again its the nature of the beast, it is pitted against the 5 series, and so any non Audi fanboy is gonna be in a 3 series, probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braytak Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 Hi Guys. I agree the review was nothing compared to the fawning Whooo Haaa! from the same program and similar ones that greeted the BMW 5's appearance. It is a little more encouraging to see that the reviewers are accepting that making progress sideways is not the whole measure of quality handling! The review on CAR4 is a ittle more in depth and very closely mirrors the Driven review. http://www.channel4.com/4car/road-tests/A/audi/a604-/a604-.html Personally as an owner of probably the most beautiful Audi The Cab 3.0 Sport, I am warming quickly to the looks of the new A6, in the right colour combo I really think this car with it's more agressive stance (longer, wider but no higher) really could be stunning. I look forward to a long test drive and a sporty Avant. Does anyone know whether the 3.2 has the DSG option if so I think it will be high on my list of replacements for the Cab. Cheers. Gez...
