Test drive Audi A6 2005 - 2008 sedan

Farewell to the mother

In general, everything is clear with Audi A6. For that year that A6 is in the Autopilot Park, qualitative changes have occurred, which are visible to the naked eye for everyone who drives the streets. On the streets there is clearly A6 with its aggressive face and cunning eyes. Moreover, they have become noticeable even more compared to title competing brands. That is, the people in white collars understood the car and accepted. In the garage of the publication there remains a car with a variator and an engine of 2.4 liters. And today we say goodbye to A6 Quattro with a 3.0 engine. Everything is clear to us with her.
For six months of A6 3.0 dough with soft but persistent operation of clinical defects, no clinical defects were found. Of course, a kind of stylistic discrepancy between Moscow spring roads and light carpets on the floor immediately caught my eye. But the vileness of urban coatings was generously compensated by the all-wheel drive of Quattro, which just during our tests celebrated the 25th anniversary.
During this time, from hot news, the car has turned into a business attribute of a whole class. Actually, it appeared and the class of young businessmen who did not want to think too much. Modesty as an attribute of dignity. In a society where the mechanisms of a wild flock operate, the color of the plumage is very important, as well as the length of the beak and the volume of the fist. Nobody will have to even be afraid of Audi on the road at a subconscious level, although it also does not make the impressions of the body that can be offended at a bend. A machine on which it is equally decent to come to work in the company for the supply of products and for the premiere of the opera with Volochkova in the title role. The new A6 does not appeal in people of rejection at any level: no one can complain about her comfort, her aggressiveness, or, conversely, stupidity. A perfectly tailored product of Protestant philosophy - pay 60,000 and behave modestly.
There is something from the business class of such airlines as Finnair or KLM-pay like a Jew and behave like a diligent student of Luther and Calvin. But to us, atheists, the old disputes do not matter.
Now we have learned that there is a car that makes up the strict competition of premium brands on their own field. This actually was the meaning of the entire half -year event.
