    I have put up over 100,000 km in my Audi A5 3.0 TDI Quattro. It has never given me any trouble. Its only on its second set of 19" tyres and drives like a dream. Easily the best car I have ever owned.

    Spotted that this morning - that's some sleeper.

    Wonder was it a Volvo demo, regged just before the VRT changes last year?

    There is no doubt that the A5 was designed around the quattro system and as such that would cancel out alot of the problems with mine not being able to take the power at the front wheels. You also have the servo assist steering on the 3.0tdi which might help with the mad feel & pull coming up from the road. It really must be far superior to the 1.8T. As I said before, I get the feeling that the car was designed around the quattro system and then the lesser models just fired out without any great setup alterations.

    Talking to the salesman, he said that MD of volvo ireland drove it, then landed J&P with it,
    lot of car for the money, not worth 90k but at 40K....

    Ode To The Motorist

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    Hi guys, i need your expertise now, just this morning my uncle is selling to us his new 2011 Audi A5. Is this one is a good choice? Please advice i need your help in here.

    Does it have Quattro? All accounts here in motors suggest that the 2WD version should be avoided. (Haven't driven it myself, just to be clear).
