What am I missing? These look fun as fuck and are hella cheap. Seems like great value? Convince me not to buy one.

Pre-emptively declaring any discussion of BMW cars off topic in this thread before the UDM mouthbreather starts shitting the discussion up.

Look up the serious reliability issues and repair costs on these pieces of shit.

Nobody cares.
>basically a porsche taycan underneath but with a comfier driving experience
So expensive repairs?
>250 mile range and 80% charge in 20 mins
Both figures are pathetic.
>all the reports I can find say over 90% capacity remaining after 5 years.
Yet real cars retain 100% fuel capacity even after 100 years.
>£35k
A fool and their money....

That's the average audi experience

they are expensive to insure since its an EV and in the highest insurance group
>>
>guys what could possibly go wrong with a cheap german luxury car?
how new do you have to be to cars to not already know the answer to this.

buy a fucking tesla. don't bother with euro EVs.
>>
Cars are usually priced accurately. These things cost a lot new and now they are cheap. Gotta wonder why. Also gotta wonder why a lot of ev sales are low or companies are dropping their ev models.

I guess they are fun. I've driven a few teslas. But what are they like to live with on a daily basis? Makes me wonder a bit
>>
>>29033519
it all looks to be software that has been patched & a battery recall that doesn't affect post-2022 models...

>>29033526
honestly not making any good arguments for me there, looks to be pretty reliable and I don't live in a place where i'd want to go more than 200 miles without a piss and snack break anyway.

>>29033534
best point yet, just got a quite at £600 so big but not crazy. I was paying that 4 years ago anyway on a shitty VW golf 1.6TDI.

>>29033550
I wanted to see if you guys had anything specific on this thing instead of general EV/Kraut FUD because there won't be any rube goldberg rocker arm bullshit happening like with the old S5
>>
>What am I missing?
nothing, they are undesierable. The customer segment with money leases these new, the customer segment without money cant afford a used car with 1000€ for a tire set and ceramic coated brakes.
Also the 22kw charger for some models isnt available as spare anymore.
>>29033534
my family propably has a combined ownership of 75 years on various audis and the worst that broke so far was a clutch and the beeper speaker in the dash
>>
>>29033619
yeah that's fair. I definitely wouldn't be looking at full price. Good thoughts, thanks anon.
>>
>>29033635
the real fucked up thing is the used market leasing rates. It is cheaper to lease a brand new a6 than a 2023 etron gt.

I've been eying these too bro

> it all looks to be software
But no bro, it has a chain, for 2 gears, with a closed coolant system, and guess what, it's Audi so this does break. They presumably fixed it with revised parts since last year. So, either get one that already has its 'engine' replaced or expect it to break between now and 50k km for at least a 3-5k repair bill.

Also check the insurance, if you can even get it insured, in my country only 1 company would let me insure it, maybe calling them up works and showing your insurance history, but it's definitely not cheap to insure, expect about double of what you're used to, this is just because they don't like super-fast accelerating cars.

Also, if you really want to floor it all day, just expect your tires to wear out very fast.

Besides the fact that it's VAGshit EVslop?

youre crazy to buy a european EV.
just get a fuckin tesla like a smart ev buyer.
good friends of mine bought an audi etron, launch edition. damned near $100k for this thing new.
after having the battery changed and one of the drive motors changed under warranty they had enough.
trade in value? $17k
they're rich so it doesnt even matter but if you're not then prepare your anus.
problem is that all the euro brands got caught sleeping when their govs decided evs-for-everyone and in the rush to catch up they made a LOT of mistakes that you (the buyer) will pay for.
>>
>>29033728
in euroland every high price ev on the road stems from some company lease. They get like 40% off and additional tax relief. When they get put on the used market after 2-3 years they had all their teething issues fixed and the dealer also has to give warranty again.
>>
>>29033512
Where do you find one for £35k?

The risk of battery/motor/inverter failure. Should come with a high risk investment warning like when you sign up to a crypto exchange.
>>
>>29033739
These are the cheapest in the UK right now.

What’s with the audi shilling lately?
Is this another try at establishing an UDM competitor?
The Raped by Porsche brown dog spammer lost and so will audi chuds.

>>29033512
I would never buy an AUDI only the company from Bavarian Motor Works.
>>
>>29033766
mate, im glad you shitskins stick with ze dönercorvette, its bad enough that balkan gypsis and gopniks are audi obsessed
>>
>>29033748
Damn. This is the cheapest one I can find in Sweden, it's more than £40000, almost 65k miles
>>
>>29033771
Enjoy your shithole AUDI loser
