Ownership cost
What used Audi A6 estate will I get for my budget?
You can pick up high-mileage A6 Avants for around £6500, but we’d recommend spending more than this to secure a late 2011 or early 2012 car with an average mileage for the year, and a full service history. Look to spend between £10,000 and £12,000 for a good, clean 2013 car that satisfies all of the above. Up the wedge to £14,000 or more for a facelifted 2015 car bought from a trader or an independent dealer, and £16,000 to £20,000 for good 2016 and 2017 models bought from a franchised dealer.

All V8 petrol models emit 225g/km.
Road tax
Road tax for all models registered before 1 April 2017 will vary depending on the emissions the engine produces (see above for more information). Examples registered after this date attract a flat-rate fee, plus an additional charge for cars that cost more than £40,000 when new that applies between years two and six of the car's age.

Servicing
Examples that are more than three years old will qualify for Audi’s fixed-price servicing, which costs from £205 for a minor service and £365 for a major one, based on cars with a 2.0-litre engine or smaller. A6s with larger engines (although not the S6 or RS6) will cost £240 and £425 for the same level of work.
Insurance groups
Insurance groups for the A6 are slightly higher than the equivalent models from BMW and Mercedes, with 2.0-litre diesels starting in group 33. The more powerful 3.0 BiTDI is in group 44, followed by the most potent RS6 in group 50.
