Used Audi Frequently Asked Questions
Is a used Audi a reliable car?
Yes, used Audi models are known for their robust engineering and build quality. They consistently perform well in owner satisfaction surveys, particularly when they have been maintained correctly. A vehicle with a full and verifiable service history, like the ones we offer at Vertu, is a dependable and sound investment.
Are used Audi models expensive to maintain?
As a premium brand, the cost of parts and servicing for a used Audi will be higher than for a mainstream volume brand, but it is competitive with other premium rivals. To make budgeting for maintenance clear and manageable, we offer transparently priced service plans.
How well do used Audis hold their value?
Used Audi models, particularly popular ones like the A3 and Q5, have a strong reputation for holding their value well. The brand's desirable image, combined with its reputation for quality, performance, and advanced technology, ensures they remain in high demand on the second hand market.
What should I look for when buying a used Audi?
The single most important factor is a full service history from a trusted source. This demonstrates the car has been well cared for. To remove any uncertainty, all our approved used Audi models undergo a rigorous multi-point inspection to ensure they meet the highest standards.
Which used SUV is better for my family, the Q3 or the Q5?
Both are excellent choices. The used Audi Q3 is a premium compact SUV, ideal for a young family. It's easy to park and manoeuvre in town but still has a practical boot and premium cabin. The used Audi Q5 is a larger, more spacious SUV, offering more rear legroom and a bigger boot, making it the better choice for families with older children or those who frequently undertake long trips.
What is the real difference between a used Audi A4 and A6?
The main difference is size and luxury. The A4 is a brilliant premium all-rounder in the compact executive class, offering a great balance of comfort and agility. The A6 is a full-size executive car, representing a step up in passenger space, interior opulence, and long distance cruising comfort, making it the more serene choice for covering high mileage.
What are the main benefits of choosing the S line trim on a used Audi?
The S line trim is highly sought-after because it perfectly blends sporty aesthetics with enhanced features. It typically adds more dynamic bumpers, larger alloy wheels, and lowered sports suspension for a purposeful stance. Inside, you're treated to supportive leather-embossed sports seats, creating a more premium and driver-focused cabin environment.
How does the Audi Virtual Cockpit enhance the driving experience?
The Audi Virtual Cockpit replaces traditional dials with a stunning high-resolution digital screen. Its key benefit is customisation; it can display full-screen satellite navigation maps directly in your line of sight, minimising the need to glance away from the road. This makes navigating complex junctions easier and safer, creating a more modern and intuitive experience.
What is the benefit of the dual-screen MMI Touch Response system?
Found on newer models like the A6 and Q7, this system replaces physical climate controls with a second haptic touchscreen. The benefit is a clean, modern, and integrated cabin design. The top screen handles media and navigation, while the bottom screen provides clear, immediate access to climate functions and shortcuts, with a tactile 'click' sensation to confirm your touch.
