Hi Guys,

Had my BMW M3 stolen a while ago and thought that it was a good time for a change, so i ordered my first Audi, an S5. It will be one of the first to the UK and it was planned for arival at the start of Sept i got a call today to say it will be here Mid July as they start building it on July 2. Mine will be Phantom Black, with Magma Red Sports seats and all the toys.

I was invited down to my Dealer recently to view a Turbo Diesel version of the car and have a lot of pictures of it. Can't seem to post them on here. But if you post our e-mail i can e-mail pics to anyone.

The car is great looking both in and out. The only thing i would say is that the space and leg room in the back seats is not very good. I think my old M3 had more room in the back. It does have a very large boot though. The build quality is superb.

Looking forward to my first Audi

Cheers
Chris

Oh i have no passion for diesels at all. Its just the only A5 i have seen in the flesh. Looks good, but my S5 will look superb.

Can't be doing with diesel, love my cars too much for that 8)

Recently spent 3 weeks surging through France and Italy in my Ferrari, went back to the factory in Maranello. The petrol bill was even bigger than the g/f's shopping :shock: :lol:
