Ok so I may be missing something here but aka you seem to go through cars like I go through bad Australian jokes and as a Kiwi I tend to rack them up :bigblink:

Are you in the industry or do you just have a penchant for trying new cars? :bowdown:

UPDATE:

Driven 200 miles, and I can positively say this car is truly crap, slow and a pig to drive

BUT, I did have the roof down the whole time

MPG was around 46-47 vs. prob 31 on the S4

wishing I went for a auto as have to change gear so much as there's on 4k of revs available

it cant hold 6th until 40mph where as the S4 could take 6th at 25mph

to be fair to it though, its brand new

so will be better after a few k on the clock

To add to that ... I've borrowed a SEAT Alhambra for the weekend to shuttle 8 people in

I got in it, started driving, and INSTANTLY i thought, <beep>, this drive better than the A5 !!!

that A5 is truely <beep>

but will serve a purpose .... a 4k Euro roadtrip
