Power and smoothness of the 2.7-litre petrol engine, Tiptronic gearbox, rugged styling, combination of off-road prowess and on-road ability, good value compared with standard A6 Avant
Diesel's lack of low-speed torque, exposed sills transfer dirt onto exiting legs, beautifully-finished interior inappropriate for regular dirt-road use, easily scuffed bumpers and alloys
It looks great and delivers the goods - what more could you want? Well, it's a bit too smart to be a proper working vehicle
The Allroad is immensely desirable second-hand, so there aren't any bargains, but prices have eased since greater availability of other, newer fashion-statement 4x4s like the Volvo XC90, Volkswagen Toaureg, Porsche Cayenne and indeed, Audi's own Q7. The '01-'06 Allroad will also get cheaper yet once more of the new version come onto the used market. Most used Allroads will be ex-company cars, many with huge mileages, but with a car as well-engineered and well-built as this, that shouldn't be problematic.
