You really wouldn't expect a 17 year old Audi A4 which could have driven around the equator five times to be reliable.

But it is. I've put all of $30 into general maintenance so far. I love this thing. It may be old, slow and cheap but it's still a hell of a car.

Next maintenance bill: $30 * 10^2

Looks relatively well kept. Manual or auto?

As long as you dont disturb its natural habitat, she will generally be fine.

I'm eyeing a 2004 A6 with the 2.7T right now on the internets. It only has 50k miles

Do it! The 2.7t was a great engine.

I'm more of a bmw guy, but it seems there is a lot of potential with the 2.7t. I'm also eyeing an 08 530i. Same horsepower but from an NA six. Hmmmmm.

I am pretty content with this car right now, The only thing that I can complain about is the lack of performance mods available for it. But there's nothing a custom fab supercharger can't fix :)

People with the same engine have hit 300,000 with no major problems. It's a solid car all around.
