    Delivery On 1st Sept Confirmed

    Crappy iphone pics. Will do some more if the weather is ok on Thursday. Really happy with how she looks in the flesh. I like the Black Edition wheels, but was not keen on them on the white car on the configurator, hence why I upgraded to the 7 spoke 20 inch wheels. Well chuffed with them, they...

    Picked up my A5 Black Edition on Friday 15th

    Fifth gear did a test of premium diesel fuel and it gave an extra 5-7hp. I'm sure it is on youtube if you want to check it out. Premium unleaded on the other hand gives no extra performance based on test results
