Why would you get another A6 if you don't like the current one? Most Audis don't change much through the generations.

I think it depends on what the age related issues are. If they are things that you would expect to wear out (suspension etc) rather than the fundamentals of the car (engine, gearbox etc) then I would be inclined to regard the £600 as a cheap years motoring. I ditched my last Volvo after the replacement steering rack went phut after two years, suggesting to me that something was properly wrong underneath.
I ran complete shitters for years and didn't grudge spending a few quid to get through the MOT if they were fundamentally reliable.
Are the electrics OK?

QUESTION - my A6 is starting to have age related issues. 2007, 125000 miles. I never liked the car - various small annoying issues with it from day one. MOT due soon and I expect to pay £600+ for service and a few repairs. Car may be worth £1500 ish.
Money is a bit tight at the mo and I don’t think I can stretch to a newer A6 Avant SLine - which I would like.
What are my options? I would not sell this car privately due to the issues with it.
I would like a few options to give me something to think about. My mechanic is VW / Audi and I would try and stay with those makes but anything would be considered.
