Interesting courtesy car.

Today I have been driving a brand new Audi AllRoad 2.7tdi. Interesting car.

I've drivien the old AllRoad but this fella is much better. Well built and looks good IMO. The interior is stock A6 which means it's ergonomically flawed although superbly well screwed together. It's got all the right kit: MMI, Nav, TMC, Phone, Voice Control etc.
The ride is excellent and I think, smoother than my A8 - although with considerably more body roll.

All in all, I really like it, apart from the engine, which sounds like someone banging a bag of spanners against a wall.

All A6 by the looks of things. Can't see any A4 in it.

Always looks more like an A4 on stilts to me, although as you've been driving one I'll bow to you

described as the "Audi A6 Allroad Quattro" on the audi website

The Allroad is based on the A6. Is it the new one that they let you have (big chrome grill etc). They had one of the new shape at Derby Audi last week.

The old one just looks like a jacked up A6 but the new one has quite a few differences on the exterior.
