My XC90 pcp deal is nearly up. I’ve been looking around and very interested in the Skoda range, from Kodiaq/Karoq to Superb/Octavia.
But............
The current prices on an A6 estate are insane! £10k off list, making it £360/month for 20k miles/year. Leather, heated seats, elec boot, tech pack. Sat in one today, and it was very nice!
Yay or nay?? Anybody got one
Yay.
Is it the Allroad ?
Still Yay anyway.
Really liked mine (2012 3.0TDI S-Line Quattro). Was reliable, call comfortable and are long motorway journeys for breakfast. Criss-crossed continental Europe a few times and it was totally hassle free.
The reason for the deals at the mo is that the current model is due to be replaced and so they want to clear current stocks. If that doesn’t bother you - go for it!
Not to answer your question exactly, but is this of any interest?

(Only, it's what I went for last month.)
To get up to 20,000 miles /yr it would be more than my A6!
Bikebuoy - no standard Avant SE executive tech pack.
JamJ - yes, I did similar with my XC90 - 12k off list with that due to a new model!
Still Yay from me.
Nice cars.
PCP for how many years and what’s the optional payment to buy?
Yay, I did similar in March on an A6 Avant Quattro. Just been out playing in the snow 
dantsw13 - I'm tempted, where's the deal?
4 years, 10k final payment.
Fat max - via Carwow. Best deal for me was Bexley Audi, but lots offering good deals. APR is 3.9% which is 2% lower than my old deal.

Good! Enjoy it.
Links? (or is that lings?)
This would be good:
Audi A6 Estate
Ticks all the boxes 
LD of this parish has one. It's a very nice place to sit, quiet and seems to hustle along nicely.
I drove one in December when I was looking for a new estate. Deals were fantastic (also on the A4 which I preferred - dunno why). It'd eat motorway miles, is big and practical, comfortable and nice to drive. I didn't buy one in the end, but I certainly wouldn't have regretted doing so.

I went from an A6 Avant S-line to a Volvo XC60 just recently.
I'm actually much happier with the Volvo. Better ride, more comfortable seats, including positive comments from family passengers, better cabin space (The A6 was a big car, but small on inside space).
Have you driven the A6 yet?
A friend of mine has gone for a similar deal on an A6 Avant. He went in to look at an A4 and the deal they were offering on a brand new A6 was about the same price as a 2 year old A4.
Apparently there's a new A6 coming out around September time so they're doing some cracking deals on them as it'll be about the only way to shift them.
New shape XC60 or the old one?
If the old one I’d steer clear having owned one myself.
New XC60. (Still waiting for first model teething troubles though 8O)
New ones are much nicer than my version
Missus is going to get a new XC40.
Life over? Go for a Skoda. Save yourself some money, it's not like you care anymore.
Still got a bit of spark? Go for the Audi, and wear that smug face with pride.

The A6 will be cheaper on PCP anyway due to residual values.
I have an A6 and it's a great car. If I could get an all road or another 3.0 TDI in a years time for good money I definitely would.
Bare in mind the new one is due very soon so dont hang around too much as the deals will dry up when the stock does.
I absolutely loved my A6 Avant Quattro - 2.7TDI with auto and paddles. Brilliant car. Wife got it in the divorce, still regret not keeping it (valuation £7k I recall). 110k mikes, 7 years old felt like a new car.
As an aside we went for a look round and drive in Karoq today - both petrol manual and diesel 4wd. Great package, a bit pricey in top trim and no petrol 4wd
IMHO Audi better quality by quite a bit but pricey when hitting the options list.
OP depends on model and engine spec, I am a bit old school and think the car needs a big motor
Thanks all, lots if interesting stuff. Jamba - I used to have an A3 3.2V6 Quattro, so know what you mean!!
Does it come with an indicator stalk thingy as well?
Late edit re Karoq
As an aside we went for a look round and drive in Karoq today - both 1.5tsi petrol manual and 2.0 diesel 4wd auto. Great package, a bit pricey in top trim and no petrol 4wd. Salesman (ok ok) said they sold 15 on the launch last weekend and there will be a waiting list. I can see why, great family and bike car with the removable seats and big boot, pretty quiet and refined. Some cheaper plastic on say door lowers but in top spec enough toys and Panoramic roof
We have been car shopping and was stunned at how pricey it would be to get a decent A4 Avant Quattro. Even a Q2 runs into mid 30’s, Q3 being significantly upgraded in late 2018 so not an option for me as I don’t want to buy a car which may feel dated quickly.
I would look into exactky what’s happening with the model, facelift - minimal vs major or more of a “redesign”
We all love an Audi review right 
The A6 would be a great choice. For me, the new Karoq looks spot on but I’d be happy with a Passat, Superb, A6 or Karoq (won’t see good lease deals yet). Apparently the A6 is a bit dated inside and as a driver of the last generation of Passat, versus the latest models, it is old hat - but still great. I was in a new GTI Golf yesterday and the digital toys were a big step up from the older stuff. Think iPhone 8 versus 6.
Pauln - in that case a new old style A6 (??) is perfect for me as I still have an iPhone 5S
Or do what i did and get an e class. Even cheaper to lease than a a6. Premier plus has loadsa toys including an optionable retractable tow bar and spring loaded rear seats(they fold by pressing a button in the boot) making loading amd moving piles of stuff real easy.
