The Volkswagen Touareg V10 twin turbo diesel.... the same engine Audi was going to use (with additional tuning) to create probably the craziest "supercar" ever, the Audi Nanuk....a V10 Bi-turbo diesel with AWD that looked like a Lamborghini Gallardo and an Audi R8 got together behind Mamma VAG's back and birthed a child, a V10TT Diesel AWD Supercar child that could also be driven anywhere like a Porsche Dakar or Lamborghini Staccato.... it's actually a shame they never built that thing, that thing could've been super dope. If I had the money, I'd definitely scoop up an R8 or Gallardo and swap in that V10TT Diesel with some tuning, backed by a 6spd manual of course.... cheap fuel, 500hp, 1000ft-lbs of torque 😅

Two things to point out after watching this great review of a car lot of people can afford (not maintain lol) - This A4 weights at least 1700kg dry, 1400 would be something to dream about. Secondly, it seems more like a 180-190hp based on driving dynamics.

The owner should first repair the rust and buy some decent tyres before doing a tune. And while at it, he should do a dpf and intake clean. This thing performs closer to a 2.0 than a v6 diesel at the moment.

this car has acceleration and speed just barelly better than my 150hp diesel manual transmission sedan (mid 8s 0-100 and 220 gps top speed)... i get awd cause more power loss than rdw but... this engine claimed 240hp but feels more like 170...

[@Swiss4.2]

3.0 TDI is one of the best VAG engines ever made. Powerful, fuel efficient, and surprisingly very good reliability. You can easily get 500k kms out of these cars even with the stock timing chain; although it usually needs to be replaced at 300k.

[@kenvanpassen9247]

Few facts about this car. The engine seems "dead", as the intake manifold is full with soot or has any other problems. Normally running A4 3.0 TDI goes to 260 on the speedo without any problems, with ease! There is clearly something wrong with it. Could also be DPF, broken flap(s), Turbine regulation....

Also, what exactly gave it away, that this was a Cop Car? I don't notice anything unusual below the quattro sign

[@Giro_drivers]

@@neuleo the spec is extremely unusual- usually buyers who opt for the bigger engines (3.0 TDI) have Xenon/LED lights, as well as some interior trim. Inside the manual gearbox is also pretty uncommon for the 3.0 TDI, and if you look closely at the Quattro sign on the co-drivers side of the dashboard you can see something funky going on- as if somebody punched/dinged it one day. These were the mounting holes for the (Provida?) system mounted to monitor the traffic. All of the afformentioned spec is typical of a car best suited for police duty. The categories they care about are seats for 5, powerful engine and then just buy the most affordable model- so they get these variants with more or less only the engine specced. In general the fear instilled in me by undercover cop cars makes anything that looks suspicious stand out to me. The colour is here, halogen lights, tinted rear windows etc.

A car like this with a 3.0 tdi should be able to go much faster.
