Audi S5 sportback
Discussion
Hi all
Recently picked up my S5 after changing role and losing my company Cupra Formentor which I have to say, was a brilliant car.
From what I can tell my S5 is a fairly low spec one, no folding mirrors, pony stereo, no tints but actually it has lovely massaging seats that you adjust to grip you better, android auto and sounds the b
ks so I am very happy with it.
I love the fact it's quick etc when I want it to be but when I just need to do boring journeys etc it's quiet and comfortable, not to harsh over speedbumps for example.
No plans to do anything to it although at 45k miles, I'm tempted to get the gearbox oil changed. My local VAG specialist said there's no real immediate need suggesting it'll be 60k before it really needs doing. I will have to upgrade the speakers at some point. I can't live with it as it is.

I can see it when I click on it, but not when in the thread. Odd!
And a shame, who doesn't like an S5?!
How is rear seat space? I find a lot of modern Audis pretty dark in there with the angled roofline not helping.
ETA that's a screenshot (so a jpg) of your image simply uploaded.
Cheers. Will have another go later.And a shame, who doesn't like an S5?!

The rear seat space not too bad really. Had 5 adults in it for a long journey at weekend and whilst it was a bit of a squash, it wasn't too bad.
Tricky for elderly folk to get in though, the door frame is quite small.
Brilliant car though. Did about 300 miles at 37mpg so can love with that
