If you drive an A4 hard like you suggest your other half does then it can eat front tyres. I had an A4 2.0tdi for a while and it used to scrabble badly when pulling hard away from junctions - especially on loose surfaces. Lots of torque and little control. Quattro gives much better distribution of traction.
