Option from Audi ???? Don't remember seeing them listed. Mine are 19" 8.5j but they don't extend to the outer edge of the arch like those ?? Do Audi offer a 9 or 9.5 19" wheel for the S5 then ??

Guess you'd expect a comment like this from a bloke who owns an S5 but bit hacked off that they're putting the body kit on an A5 to make it look like the S5... Those wheels are after market options and looking at how they extend out to the edge of the arches, they must be wider ?? Love to know...

Get some pics up.....

No, the Isle of Wight but to be fair to the car it hasn't had a good run yet. Sure it'll improve once its done a few more miles.

Cheers, likewise the RS4. Not getting more than 18 mpg from mine at moment but its early days..

No obvious signs of a leak. Any thoughts ?? Over 1,000 miles, never checked before so have no idea how long its been like this.

Thanks. Can't take the credit for the choice, if the wife and the dealers hadn't been so persuasive I'd have gone for black or silver leather. Does look damn fine tho.

Whys your car for sale on Piston heads ???? You bailing out or is this the original ad for the car your bought ?? Just curious

Yeah baby !!! Seriously I had sleepless nights over the leather colour but you have to see it before you mock, it looks amazing.. not the kind of garish red you get in some cars. I'm Mr frickin conservative as a rule but I went with the advice of the Audi dealers on this one. Red/black and...

....to depreciate !

Picked up mine on Friday, no time to take proper pics yet, but will do next weekend if the weathers ok. Great car and great service from Reading Audi. First Audi after a string of BM's but so far I love it.

Some people are never happy !! Drive an S5 in the real world then honestly tell me you wish it had more power ! Where do you draw the line ?? That said maybe the forthcoming RS5 will be quick enough for you. I test drove a new M3 before deciding to trade my 6 series in against an S5, the M3 was...

Looks great, nice colour choice, I pick up a Phantom Black/Magma S5 on Friday to replace my BMW 630, they do look better in the metal than in pics. Theres a good write up on the S5 in this weeks Auto Express, comes very close to beating the new M3.

On a bit of a nostalgia trip here but when I was a kid my folks had a green metallic/coral upholstery 1977 Audi 100 GL 5E. I remember collecting it on 1st August 1977 the day the 'S' plates arrived and we were just blown away by the attention the car received whenever we parked it up. No car...

How hard is it to get one of these ?? From being quoted Sept/Oct delivery I'm now told it'll be Feb/March next year !! 6 months ??? Even the dealers I've spoken to seem suprised. Some are now looking to hold onto there Demo's. I can't believe its sold out that far ahead. One dealer told me it...
