A5 - S5 anybody ?

[SR71]

Had my B7 RS4 for just under a year now...

Why not go for a 2nd hand one of them?

Less than a new S5....

Lots on Pistonheads...

My $0.02.

Did u had a drive in the 3.0 tdi quattro too ??

I friend of mine is gonna buy the Volvo S60 R, i found it quite good, 300 hp, 3.0 litter 5 cylinders turbo and 4WD, impressive except for the design.

4 u friend
Correction, S60R is 2.5ltr - BEWARE the reliability and clutch issues !!
Not to mention costs of maintenance.

got a test drive of A5 3tdi on monday, mtm is doing reprogram to 292 bhp for 1200 €, not bad !

Still a friend of mine got a 24 hour test drive in A5 3tdi and S5, no choice in anything S5 is the dream to catch !

I had this one for about three month, it was a really good drive. Great on fuel..

it s a good drive, but i miss my S2 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! another 2 months to rebuild it.

can t find a proper S2 around belgium !! only some in spain, austria or switzerland !!

Not one for sale in belgium, holland, north of france and even germany close to belgian border !!

I think the market for S2 is becoming quite restrictive and we could see prices going up shortly !!!

Don t know the market in UK, but they did quite desepear from here !!!!!!!!

Had a test drive this midday in A5 3.0 tdi,

really not my cup of tee, suspension is quite harsh with 18" wheels, and diesel engine is definitely not for me, i hate that sound ( noise) .

I ll have to go for an S5 or i ll keep looking for a good S2, or maybe an RS4.
