I've been driving an old Audi for several years, a 2004 A6. It mainly depends on maintenance and the car's condition. If the engine and transmission are fine, and the rubber parts of the chassis are replaced on time, it could easily last another five or six years. I've seen old A6s with 400,000 kilometers still running smoothly. However, older cars tend to have electronic system issues; warning lights on the dashboard often come on, and repairs aren't cheap. The key is the annual inspection—after 15 years, it's required every six months, and emissions tests are getting stricter. Even using a middleman might not guarantee a pass. In big cities, there are many restricted zones, and getting a Euro 3 emission standard car into the city is quite a hassle. I recommend setting aside 5,000 yuan a year for repairs and promptly replacing fluids and belts.
