Moin, this year my A4 2.5 TDI is to be replaced, although the motorization is not very popular I have to say that the A4 has held on really well until now. However, I don’t need or want a diesel car anymore, the A4 still has Euro 3 which is not very helpful in the near future. After 5 years Audi I want to look around towards Lexus – Toyota. My first car was a Toyota Avensis which accompanied me for 3 years without a shortage(although I have the s With his only 110 hp he was a little too weak on my chest, then changed to an A4 1.8 TFSI (chain problems, oil consumption), then on the 2.5 TDI. Spontaneously I would have thought of it as a solution for the 2.5 TDI – Lexus IS 250, 208 PS V6 petroler – Lexus GS 300, 250 PS V6 petroler – Lexus GS450h, 296 PS V6 hybrid petroler Lexus should play in a separate league especially in terms of quality and durability If you are allowed to cling to “internet reports”. At about 10 – 12 000 km a year the fuel consumption is rather secondary. As a budget 10 to a maximum of 13k € are available to me. I am basically not dependent on a contract workshop, can use here a few capable mechanics. But I am also gladly open for other brands, German “premium brands” fall out for me, I had now for 5 years than daily – enough. If someone himself one of the Lexus Mode of course, I would be very grateful about it! My regards Daniel
