So, lets just imagine you have 50 grand to spend, what would you buy?

The rules:

  • It must be a brand new Audi (please leave the "I would buy a 2nd hand Aston" comments out for a change)
  • The price must come from the current Audi configurator
  • Although you can choose any of the models within the price range, the total ROTR price (not RRP), including extras, must come to below £50,000
  • You must pick the car that matches your situation. For example if you have 3 kids a TT isn't really going to be realistic.
  • £50,000 is the LIMIT, so imagine the money is yours, you're not really going to have the ski bag just because you have enough money
GO!
 
Here's my choice:

TT-RS in Sepang Blue for me please. I have always liked the S5 but 340BHP plus a remap and you're looking at 380BHP easily. That's not to be sniffed at in a small car!

I'd have a A5 3.0 TDI Quattro with all the trimmings but the configurator wont let me choose that, has it been discontinued? Also whats 'Audi Lane Assist'?
 
Think I would have a 3dr S3 S-tronic in Sprint Blue fully loaded with everything!
 
Also whats 'Audi Lane Assist'?

Is it like "Audi Side Assist"?

Aids the driver when changing lane. Audi side assist monitors the area behind your A4, using radar sensors located discreetly in the rear bumper, informing the driver with a visual warning signal in the door mirror if there is a vehicle in the driver's blind spot or approaching quickly from behind. The system is activated using a button in the driver's door
 
I would go for this:

A6 3.0 TDi Quattro S-line Multi-tronic Saloon in Ibis White with almost all the boxes ticked!
