    only had Audi previously, the A4 Avant and it was only after buying it that I discovered I had the dreaded BLB engine

    After an expensive fix, it served me well. I sold 2 yrs ago.

    anyhow I am thinking of buying a AUDI A6 Ultra 2.0 on a 14 OR 15 plate.

    Anybody got one and can give any feedback good or bad?

    The ultra only came out on 2014, so you'd need to be looking for a 64 plate or newer...

    I thought the Ultra came out late 2014

    BTW, 64 plate is 2014/15

    Yes you're right! You can get an ultra on a 14 plate, but you will also find the 'old' 177 2.0 tdi on a 14 plate. Any 64 plate onwards (non quattro) 2.0 tdi will be an ultra (unless it's was registered very late...).

    Ah yes. I am an idiot. I meant 2014. I should know as I have a 2014 64 plate ultra. Please ignore me. Carry on.

    OP - sorry not to have offered anything useful...

    I'm very pleased with my s-tronic Ultra. So much so that I thought I wanted to upgrade to 3.0 bitdi, but having test driven I'm more than happy to stuck with my ultra. The manual is likely to offer much better mpg in practice despite auto being more economical on paper.

    I had a Avant Ultra S Line on a 14 plate as a company car from new. It was a great improvement on my previous 177 Avant. Looked exactly the same but a new engine, new 7 speed DSG box and new electronics made it the best company car I've had.
    Decided to buy my own car in 2016 after a flirtation with Range Rovers in 2015, and an Avant Ultra with just 28k miles came up for a silly price but in SE spec.
    Having done extravagant and unreliable I thought I'd try sensible and economical. With a really cheap cash purchase, I had to put a couple of tyres on it, but that is all.
    The car now has 42k miles has has it's 2nd service (no issues) and records about 900 miles from a tank of fuel.
    The refinement is actually not far off the Range Rover, but costs half as much in fuel. The ride is a little better than the S Line, but still little stiff compared to the air sprung RR.
    Do I miss anything from the S Line spec? Well certainly not the black headlining which make a black interior feel positively dark...and really nothing else.
    I tend to drive my car and not really look a great deal at the outside, so the added S line tinsel on the exterior is not a problem for me.
    There has been a little 'digital optimisation' under the bonnet so the car has a little more torque and economy than standard, so I'm very happy with my car.
    Had it's first MOT yesterday (slightly early) and not surprisingly passed with no advisories.
    Refined, reliable and cost effective motoring....and I seem to be able to fit the same amount a clobber in the car as the Range Rover...we just don't sit as high up!
    But I have a Defender if I want so see over hedges, or it snows!

    A 14 Ultra will be pre-facelift whilst a 64 may be a facelift and a 15 probably. The facelift will give you 4zone air con and if you find a car with the tech pack then the 4g version of Audi connect and free map updates for three years from initial registration.
