Me 🤣 I drive the V6 Quattro 3.2 and know it is enough power so I drive slowly to save fuel with the family. My car is manual gearbox and very quick! Chipping, K+N filter, drop it and 20inch Vossen wheels bruv. You can adjust fuel use in town etc through proffessional upgrades. Lots of options and that V6 noise!

I've got the same car, same year, but 2.0lr tdi sline, I get about 40-50 mpg, not as quick atm as a petrol, but a remap will sort that out. Beautiful car, nice drive.

I have a 2013 A5 black edition 2.0TDI. I get 45-59mpg have enough power to enjoy 177bhp (though I might get it tuned to 220bhp eventually) . I bought it as a 5yr old car which I think is the optimum value for money. My only regret is its not quattro but you don't see many of them in Ireland anyway over the vrt.

With a 2012 2 litre TDI, I’m getting 48-52mpg, mainly motorway driving. Car tax on mine is £30/yr! Bargain! Really pleased with the car so far.

Agree with the mileage comment. I bought a brand new 2016 A5 S-line sport coupe (8-speed auto). Very sluggish (compared to the Audi TT I traded in). Now with a full APR Stage 2 Tune, FT Mount Intercooler, Cold Air Intake, Turbo Back Exhaust, and more... It's a great running car. Shouldn't have had to do all that to a car this expensive.

@ShadowBeatGaming 3 жыл бұрын

Would you not have researched things like real world mpg and done test drives on a few models with different specifications before buying one? Though I do love the look of this car I am genuinely curious.

@yuvraj01 3 жыл бұрын

Its all good yes, and I have had near enough the same exact one as in this video since 2015 (TDI Quattro)....but jeez does it COST! Gearbox fault cost me thousands, and only last week, I had to get the door cables and locks replaced as the doors wouldn't open from the outside!

252 HP versions tend to eat a lot of gas, but 190 HP (especially TDI) is much better. Probably not sporty at all. Depends on what you want. I personally don't need much acceleration because going from 130 km/h to 130 km/h on a highway takes 0 seconds, if you know what I mean ;)

Seems like I'm making the right choice, I'm having my eyes on an A5 2.0 TDI 190 HP with Automatic Transmission, Bang Olufsen Soundsystem, Leather Seats and a lot of extras. It checks the boxes that you disliked on your car. I'm seeing the car owner tomorrow and then I decide if I buy it or not. It has 90.000km is build Q2 2015 and costs me 17.000€.

@tomjens2046 4 жыл бұрын

getting rid of your car that you purchased brand new after 2 years is the most stupid decision ever (it depreciates the most during those first 2 years)

@karllittle8572 4 жыл бұрын

Yes and no, yes it does technically but It was on finance so it's just a flat rate you pay 'to rent it', it would of cost me the same amount on finance on a 3-4 year old version thats already lost it's majority of depreciation as the interest rate on second hand cars are much higher. So although the car loses much more in actual car value you pay just the same on finance as you would on a car that loses much less value. If I bought it outright cash then yes, mega money lost. But financing new means no repair, serving or mots bills .. Easy motoring! Plus if life changes and you need something more practical you can just swap cars with no big cash inputs, like I need to :)

You got the one with the small boot I have the sportback where the entire back windscreen comes up and the boot is huge. I get 3 dogs in and they can look over at me with the parcel shelf removed, also it's been said a lot that that the 2 litre engine should never have been put in a car so heavy. I have the 3.0 tdi it's 204bhp and pulls but is brilliant on fuel. I didn't get the quattro though which i regret. You just got the wrong version of the right car!
