I've driven an A6 2.5TDI multitronic, and it's pretty nice. It takes a
moment to get going (push the accelerator and nothing happens for a split
second) but after that it's quick acceleration without any hiccups. A very
smooth transmission, suits the power band of the V6 TDI very well.

Seeing my amount of traffic jam driving, this exact car would be my ideal
daily driver. Smooth, quick, silent, comfortable.
