New Audi A6 2.0TDI Limited Edition for the UK

Joining the UK Audi A6 range this week is the “Limited Edition” model that’s defined by a series of interior and exterior upgrades. Available exclusively in conjunction with the frugal 2.0-litre, 140Hp TDI diesel engine, the new Limited Edition model features 18-inch twelve-spoke alloys, Milano leather and a new DVD satellite navigation, which incorporates an upgrade to a seven-inch high resolution colour monitor for the Multi Media Interface control system and a six-disc CD changer.

Audi says that if these extras were ordered separately, they would add £3,725 to the total price of an A6 2.0 TDI SE, but the 2.0 TDI Limited Edition carries a premium of just £875, equating to total added value of £2,850. Prices for the A6 Limited Edition are set at £26,670 for Saloon and at £28,240 for the Avant.

Audi Recalling 68,240 A6 Quattro and AllRoad Quattro Models

More than 68,000 all-wheel-drive MY 2001-2004 Audi A6 Quattro vehicles equipped with 2.7L, 2.8L, or 3.0L engines and MY 2001-2005 Audi Allroad Quattro vehicles equipped with 2.7L or 4.2L engines are being recalled due to a fault in the gas tank.

In particular, the aging of the plastic material in the fuel tank rollover valve combined with bending stress from the aluminium ventilation line to the rollover valve nipple may lead to cracking of the nipple leading to a fuel leak. The recall is expected to begin on or before May 30, 2008 with Audi dealers either reinforcing the nipple on the rollover valve or repairing the cracking at the nipple.

Audi A9 Quattro: Extreme Tuning or Extreme Bad Taste?

We wonder what was going in the mind of this guy when he decided to tune his Audi A6 and give it his own personal touch. The genetically mutated Audi contains a hodgepodge of elements ranging from the headlights of an Alfa and the minuscule hood scoop to the randomly placed exhaust pipes. As if the horrendous aesthetic changes weren’t enough of a crime, the owner decided to rename his visual atrocity to the Audi A9 Quattro. He might as well left the 6 with the 9 cause that’s exactly what he did to the A6… -More pics after the jump
