We just bought an Audi A6 Avant Performance which is a year old and about the same spec?

Missus is a BMW person and really wanted another, but they were not competitive. I did a 380 mile journey in it at around 85% battery and it was awesome.

Love the looks of the A6 Avant, but at $150K it's in a different price bracket, no? Used to lust for the Allroads 20 years ago, aka German Outbacks.

Cost me £40k for it with 15 miles on the clock. They are definitely having issues shifting them.

No way, that's a hell of a deal. I barely see any in the states, nor other ultra wagons. My last one wasn't Ultra, more like a Pro - a 2002 e28. Was great for my Akita back then, low entry height and the dog net in the back. The current Akita has troubles with my SUV's height.

Go look on autotrader in the UK, there's tonnes around that price. Think they had to make room for the 2026 model.

We did the same btw, have a 4 year old Labrador with hip displacia so wanted the estate with the low boot, hence the estate.
