I am doing a bit of research for a friend on a 1999 or 2000 A4 2.8 with over 100,000 miles. I used to have a 1998 A41.8TMS and loved it and had no problems but I am not sure how these cars do over 100,000 miles. My friend is looking for something solid that won't have too many issues. How does the 2.8 engine fair at that mileage? Is there anything to keep in mind and check out before buying? Thanks for all of the advice!

be completely "reliable". I would highly suggest he looks in to a Toyota Corolla or something like that if he is looking for something that will be reliable and wont need as many fix ups.

Anyway, if solid and reliable are the concerns, wrong car. These car will nitpick you to death, especially if you do not do all your own work.

The engines are very reliable, its the rest of the car you need to worry about.

but they are great engines. I have one in my car and my daughters 95-90

If you just want reliable transportation get a civic.

If you're willing to put up with frustrating nickle and dime problems especially over 100K b/c you enjoy driving it then go for it.
