OT: Opinions on Audi Allroad?

[PeteG]

Any opinions on the Audi Allroad regarding reliability/quality/performance? My wife likes the look of them and am looking into perhaps a gently preowned (2 years old or less) Allroad for wife/hauling kids (all-wheel drive is a huge plus in New England winter). TIA!

I have not owned an Audi allroad but a friend is driving a 4.2 allroad and she loves it. It's a great car and it rides very well, the only complaint she has is the very expensive maintenance as Audi is charging an arm and a leg for service after warranty. The early models had their share of problems but at least the past 2 years seem to be very reliable. Looking at the build quality of Audi today one has to admit they are one of the best build cars out there today.
