In their own words

I've recently bought a 2nd hand Audi Q5 Vorsprung 2lt TDI, previously I had an A6. I noticed straight away considerably smaller inside. First impressions, well made on the whole, although trim above drivers side front wheel coming loose. Around town averaging around 37-38mpg I have had 45mpg on the motorway but driving very carefully. I've chipped the car to 220bhp and now it shifts with a lot of low down torque. Air suspension a must, the ride is super smooth compared to my wife's Audi Q3 which is also S Line but very firm ride. Good spec in my car and overall the car seems to drive very well. I'm not a fan though of having 21inch wheels and dread when it comes to replace them. Acoustic windscreen and side windows means you ride in relative silence which is great and good quality stereo. I agree with some of the other reviewers there is a delay when you try and shift off from the roundabouts etc. It's taken awhile to get a comfortable driving position in seat but thankfully sorted with electric adjustments. Overall, a good car, but not as good as my old A6 TDI!!
