Autocar UK – 14 August 2019

2015 2.0 TDI 150 Ultra SE,

117,000 miles, £9750

2016 1.4 TFSI Sport,

60,000 miles, £10,295

2017 2.0 TDI Ultra Sport S tronic,

56,000 miles, £13,990

2018 2.0 TFSI SE S tronic,

19,000 miles, £17,800

Regular A4s have an optional

seven-speed S tronic dual-clutch

automatic gearbox, while the most

powerful diesel, and the sporty S4

and RS4 models, have an eight-

speed Tiptronic torque converter

’box. Both offer manual override.

Audi’s double-digit power rating-

based model naming was rolled out

last year. It addresses the fact that

modern engine capacities are no

longer indicative of power output.

Across Audi’s range there are at

least nine numbers, with regular

A4s tagged either 35 (145-159hp),

40 (165-198hp) or 45 (223-244hp).

Audi’s approved used scheme

says only, somewhat ambiguously,

that it will endeavour to provide a

service history certificate at time

of vehicle handover. Make sure you

know the car’s history before you

purchase it.

NEED TO KNOW

ONES WE FOUND

RANGE ROVER 5.0 V8 AUTOBIOGRAPHY

£7469 deposit, £1245 per month, 48 months,

8000 miles per year

A huge, high-riding SUV with a powerful 5.0-litre V8

sounds like a recipe for disaster, but the Rangie is

never less than poised – and it’s surprisingly agile when

occasion demands.

JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE SE 6.2 V8 HEMI

SUPERCHARGED TRACKHAWK

£5931 deposit, £988 per month, 36 months,

8000 miles per year

With 700bhp and 640lb ft, the Trackhawk cracks

the quarter mile about as fast as a Nissan GT-R. Its

engine defines it; anything else is a distraction.

MERCEDES-AMG S63 L

£11,154 deposit, £1859 per month, 48 months,

8000 miles per year

Being a rung below the mighty V12-powered S65 takes

nothing away from the appeal of the V8-powered

S63. It feels just as invincible and comes with all the

technology you could wish for.

A4 2.0 TDI

190PS SE

The high-power

2.0-litre diesel

engine is smooth and

r efi n e d ; i t ’s l u st y, to o , w i th 2 9 5 l b f t

available. It’s a Euro 6 engine, of

course, so no worries there. SE

trim is great value.
