2008 (58) A4 issues?

[builder22]

Hi there,

I had to say good bye to my 2000 A8 as it was proving just too expensive to keep on the road in Ireland. Anyway I still have a great fondness for Audi's so want to pick up a late 2008 2.0 litre TDI SE model.

I picked up my last car in the UK and am thinking of doing the same again. However I wondered did any of you know of any inherent problems with them that I should be aware of. I know there can be issues with DPFs but I am not sure how bad this actually is.

Looking at spending about 11k on one as it will cost about another 3k to import it. Tell me about the Irish tax system, they are very efficient at thinking of ways to generate revenue . Spending that kind of money not too keen on private sales, so besides the autotrader can you recommend other sites means for locating nice clean examples in the UK.

Thanks all

Niall
