    Decisions...decisions.

    I am torn between a new A5, or possibly a second hand S5, or the luxury of an A7. I love the looks of the A5 Coupe, it is one of the best looking cars I have seen in many years.

    Hi guys, It's that time again, the light is on, and it needs a service. She is now 5 years old, and has always had an Audi main dealer service. I am considering using a local Bosch garage instead, easier to get to and slightly cheaper. What do you think?
