My friend has a 2007 Audi A4 Quattro that he wants to sell. He bought it off an ad on Craigslist a few years back. The problem is that he is an undocumented immigrant that does not have a title or a registration or any other documents. He is a licensed driver and bought it legally. He has a receipt from the sale. What should he do?
Answer
Tell him to contact the DMV to see what can be done.
It's bad news that he doesn't have the title. I take it he's been driving it unregistered for 6 years also?
God this is going to be screwed up. Only the DMV can help him get through these difficulties.

I'm looking into getting a new car, any opinions on an Audi?

I'm planning on buying a car within the next 6 months. I really like Audis a lot but I've heard good and bad things about them. I like the A4, but if they're too much of a hassle I'll look at something else.
Answer
I'm assuming you like the Audis because of their looks, performance, interiors, etc. Yes, they are quite excellent in these aspects (especially the interiors, which are really attractive).
As far as reliability, maintenance, service - there's good and bad news. The A4 in recent years has become a more relia ble model, probably more so than the A6, its bigger brother. I think Consumer Reports has rated them to be at least average or better than average - which is based on ownership surveys. Are you buying new or used? If you can get new, or at least a certified pre-owned, you will have some things covered.
Whatever model you get, in any case, you will really need to pay strict attention to maintenance schedules. Audis aren't cars that you can just forget about in terms of regular maintenance - they are German luxury/performance cars. They are not cheap to maintain or fix. You can save quite a bit on service costs if you go to an independent garage as opposed to a dealer service center, but it will never be like getting a Honda or Ford serviced in terms of cost.
I would suggest you get in contact with local Audi clubs who can advise you about their experiences with ownership and where to find good service facilities. Good luck!
