For Four-wheel drive, sports suspension and the second most powerful engine in the range make this a fun car to drive. The 3.2-litre engine is refined, too.
Against Sports suspension makes for a firmer ride, especially around town. Emissions are a bit high and economy could be better, too. The 2.0-litre petrol makes more financial sense.
If the heavens open, this is a swift and comfortable way of getting from A-to-B. Diesel versions are more economical, however, and the smaller petrol models are much cheaper.
There’s no such thing as a bad Audi A5, but our favourite is the 2.0 TFSI. In everyday driving it’s plenty quick enough, yet it still averages the best part of 45mpg.
Whichever engine you go for, the dealer should be willing to offer a discount. Savings of over £1000 shouldn’t be 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 and xenon headlights are standard, but a CD multichanger, cruise control and satellite navigation are desirable extras.
