AUDI A6 AVANT (2004-CURRENT)

We Say...
If you want an executive car but want more flexibility, forget that SUV and go instead for the A6 Avant (wagon in Audi speak). Only available with the 3.0 TDI engine, it's well-kitted and extremely practical. If you think wagons are for mommies, the A6 Avant comes with the S-Line aerodynamic package as standard.
Top notch quality inside and out made more practical.
Styling is even more forgettable than the sedan, dull driving experience.
