Make sure timing belt, water pump, oil consumption, cam follower, evap codes, coolant flanges

I’m assuming you’re looking at a B7 avant. They are really no more or less expensive than the sedans. Like pretty much any Audi, stay on top of maintenance and they should treat you well. The cam follower is the most important thing to stay on top of. If it goes it can cost you an engine. Otherwise, it’s just basic maintenance. You’ll want a carbon cleaning every 75-100k miles also.
