Used Audi A7 for sale in Europe

About the Audi A7

The Audi A7 is a large, five-door fastback with a sloping roofline and a hatchback tailgate. It sits between the A6 saloon and the A8 in Audi's range. It suits drivers who want a quiet, long-legged cruiser with a usable boot and a more distinctive shape than an estate or saloon.

Most cars in our listings are the Sportback body with quattro all-wheel drive, though some front-wheel-drive versions exist. Engines are mainly V6 diesel and petrol, with four-cylinder versions in some years. Newer cars add mild-hybrid systems and a plug-in hybrid. Sportier S7 and RS7 versions also exist.

Listings cover model years from 2010 to 2026 and include diesel, petrol, hybrid and plug-in hybrid cars. Equipment varies a lot between cars. Air suspension, driver-assistance packs and screen layouts differ, so compare specifications closely rather than relying on the model name.

Generations

• C7 / 4G (2010-2018) — The first A7 Sportback, with a facelift around 2014 that updated styling and the engine range.
• C8 / 4K (2018-present) — The second generation brought a new interior with touchscreens, 48-volt mild-hybrid systems on many engines and a plug-in hybrid version.

What to check when buying a used Audi A7

Ask for the full service history and look for matching records of mileage. Inspect the car cold, take a long test drive and use a diagnostic scan if you can. Compare the specification sheet with what is actually fitted.

• Service history and mileage

  Look for regular oil and gearbox servicing and for mileage that is consistent across invoices, inspection records and the dashboard. Large, powerful cars can cover high mileage easily, so a documented history matters more than the number on the clock.

• Gearbox behaviour · Automatic gearboxes

  Many cars have a dual-clutch S tronic or a conventional automatic, and some front-wheel-drive versions use a CVT. On the test drive, check for judder, delayed engagement and rough shifts. Ask when the transmission fluid was last changed.

• Suspension and ride height · Air suspension

  Air suspension is fitted to some cars and optional on others. Check that the car sits level after standing overnight and that it rises and lowers without warnings. Listen for clunks over bumps and look for leaks or worn bushes.

• Engine condition and carbon · Petrol direct-injection engines

  Direct-injection petrol engines can build up carbon deposits on the intake valves. Listen for rough idling or hesitation when cold. Check for oil leaks and coolant loss, and ask what maintenance has been done.

• Emissions equipment · Diesel engines

  On diesels, check for warning lights, rough running or smoke. Short-trip use can stress the particulate filter and exhaust gas recirculation system. Ask about any emissions-related repairs or software updates.

• Screens and driver aids · Electronics

  Test the infotainment screen, navigation, parking sensors, cameras, adaptive cruise control and electric tailgate. Faults in electronics can be costly to trace, so make sure every feature in the specification works.

• Plug-in hybrid battery · 55 TFSI e plug-in hybrid

  The plug-in hybrid uses a 17.9 kWh battery. Check that it charges properly with the supplied cable and that the car switches between electric and petrol drive smoothly. Ask for a diagnostic report on the high-voltage system.
