<Audi has to finally realize that not only buyers of new cars create the
<opinion. The existence of many old cars in excellent condition driven by
<satisfied owners is great, free advertising. If you talk to a Mercedes
<official, he will be proud of the fact that many 20 years old MBs are
<still hitting the road. Audi seems to be ashamed by the existence of old
<Audis. What's the point of discouraging people from buying used Audis by
<charging so much money for parts and letting the dealers suggest the
<owner of 10 years old car that it isn't worth their attention anymore? I
<love my Audi and will buy another one in the future, unfortunately, I
<have no hard feelings towards it's manufacturer.
