Audi A5 Coupe, Black edition. Then after that..... I'm unsure, getting a new T6.1 camper in the new year too, which I have a few plans for.....

Yeah these are an underated wheel, they look far better than Cadiz. I think they have aged well too.

I'm getting a A5 Coupe black edition 40tfsi. Now my kids are a little older I fancy something different. I've changed job so need a better car to comute in, I've gone from shift work to Monday to Friday so a car that drinks 99 isn't the best option for me, so my sensible head tells me. I'm planning on getting a T6.1 camper in the new year to handle any van duties

So that's it, the car is gone. Over the past five years the car's been epic. It's done everything I required and performed perfectly. It's taken us to France a few times and has been filled to the gills like a small van. I will definitely miss it's effortless all round performance. I also preferred her without the black stripes once they came off.....less is more sometimes. In the end I covered 46k miles and only lost 9k over the five years..... I wasn't expecting it to be such a good value car.

Maybe......

Yes I'm unsure how I still have a clean licence, I go to work quite early so have a chance to stretch it's legs.... I find the trouble with it, if I go for an overtake, by the time you get by you're in big numbers. It just want's to keep on pulling.

I placed my order before the changes thankfully, as they removed some standard kit. I went for a 40tfsi black edition, Daytona grey pearl with C+S and storage pack. I got a decent discount, much like the R. I'm sad to see the R go as it's been one of the best cars I've owned.

Sent you a PM

I've got an Audi A5 black edition coupe on order, should come in October all being well. My kids are a little older now, so I don't have to have such a family wagon. I'm looking at getting a VW camper in the new year too. I will miss the performance I'm sure, the car has been epic!

So, sad times indeed, after 5 years of faultless ownership it's time to move on. I'm unsure what to do with my Estate. Do I sell the car as is or take some parts off and put the OE Cadiz wheels on? Do places like Motorway take modded cars? I'd rather just sell the car as it is. Any advice would be great Rob

Which oil did you use?

Safe and sound are good if you are up North.

You'll have to let us know if you really see any MPG advantage.

I think the US have different emissions rules to the UK/Europe, which is why you didn't get them. They were removed from our cars too in 2019 when they fitted an extra filter to the exhaust. I'm sure you'll see plenty of threads about carbon build up once these cars start getting into high miles.

I fitted an aftermarket one when I broke the drivers side. I must say the OE one has better heating elements but I can live with my £20 glass
