I paid £320 for the RS5 in July, me and the wife, I'm 35 she's 30!!!! I knew there was one good thing about living on Anglesey ;)

I have this option on my RS5, it does not move with the steering, only the graphical line on the screen moves :)

Isn't it amazing what dealers will tell you to make a sale! When I was looking for my RS5 I was told the red ones are worth less due to the colour, even though Audi use red for the press car (they did the same with the RS3 I believe). I then rang a dealer with a red RS5 who told me it was...

Yes, the buckets are lower, but I'm not keen on Audi buckets full stop so didn't go for them. It's the only complaint I had about the RS3, and didn't stop me buying it :)

Can I be the black sheep in my RS5 :(

I wasn't too big for the car by any means, I just wasn't keen on the actual driving position in the A3, my Mum had a Golf GTI which was much better. It's a personal thing mate, I came from a long line of coupe's and just couldn't really get used to it.

The RS3 is a superb car, the only thing I could fault it for is the driving position, I'm 6'1 and wasn't keen on how high the position was (I had comfort seats). i will reiterate the mpg, I'm currently averaging 18mpg in my new RS5, 10mpg down on the 3 :( Mind you, it's worth it for the V8 howl :)

The one and only mate :) I looked at that RS5 in Liverpool, couldn't justify the extra £16k for the slight revisions, plus now you have told me who owned it previously I'm really glad I didn't (being a City fan ;)) Totally with you re the power, they are nigh on exactly the same, but I would...

Nice motor, can I ask what your Brother does? I might need to take a course in that ;)

Yep, and the Escort & Sierra Cosworth :):) if I recall correctly the Escort Cosworth was a tad under 500bhp and 0-60 in 4.5secs, bit like what we are hooning round in now but without the investment, mods and ball ache ;) If you have the money to waste and like a "Q-Car" I can see the...

Yes, sad isn't it, it's all EU guidelines for Co2 etc. I had an E60 M5 V10 a few years ago, what a motor, you won't see another one of them from BMW!

The thing is, out of the box the RS5 is the quicker car, looks much better, handles better, stops better, and has much better toys!! Audi aren't stupid, they know what they are doing, just like with the new S3 :) all manufacturers are the same now, they make a "madras" version and then the good...

No mate, bog standard for me all the way :)

I don't appreciate that at all mate....... I have seen a few reviews of his bleating on about being to get the **** end of a BMW round on a corner and 4 wheel drive bogs the car down blah blah blah, in real life this isn't any fun at all, and would probably cause fatalities and is why I would...

I dislike him becuase of his bias towards BMW (and all things RWD in general). When I was looking to buy the RS3 I test drove (at length) the M1 and then the RS3, and then the RS3 again before buying it. I don't mind anyone reviewing a car fairly, he just seems to slate all things Audi, it's...

Check it out - Chris Harris video: M135i vs A45 AMG - PistonHeads Notice his last comment "Why no RS3? It would have been slaughtered" This guy is beyond belief, how anyone could say the RS3 is that bad is beyond me? I know I have got rid of mine now but it was a great car?!?!

Agree, but I don't like tuning cars as it affects the warranty, would much rather just keep standard. For me, the RS5 is a stunning looking car, and is the main reason I bought it and not really for any performance gains (although 3rd gear in this is EPIC). I did love the RS3 but after seeing...

Various tests I've read online get the 0-60 to 4.2's which MBK has achieved in his RS3 so it would be damn close! After about 80 though the RS5 would take it, this thing pulls like a train and in 3rd gear you are easily in three figures. Fact is, both are great cars, and I'm very lucky to of...

Quick iPhone piccie -

I got £34k part ex which was good considering all the people who were offering £32k via text message for the brief 24 hour period it was on Pistonheads :):) god loves a tryer..........
