For For such a quick car, this 201bhp 3.0-litre diesel is very economical. The list of standard equipment includes three-zone climate control and leather upholstery.

Against The flexible 2.0-litre diesel is cheaper and more frugal, while the 3.0 TDI 245 is quicker and it comes with four-wheel drive.

3 out of 5 stars

This model makes a fine long-distance cruiser thanks to its strong and refined engine, and good range, but we’d save some money and stick with the 2.0-litre diesel.

Buyer's notes

Target Price team says:

There’s no such thing as a bad Audi A5 Coupe, but our favourite is the 2.0 TDI. In everyday driving it’s plenty quick enough, yet it still averages over 60mpg.

Whichever engine you go for, the dealer should be willing to offer a discount. Savings of over £1000 aren’t out of the question. Resale values are strong, too, so expect to get back as much as half of the original price in three years’ time.

The queue of willing buyers will be bigger if you choose wisely from the options’ list. Leather upholstery is standard on SE models and above, but cruise control and satellite-navigation are desirable extras.
