Do you mean crash ncap?Loving all the pics!! Only thing putting me off is the ncap! Is it ok without
Thanks for this mate put me at ease! Shame about the car, just got to find the right car nowDo not be worried, so there was a big thing a few years ago about the dealers not knowing about Euro NCap ratings on cars. The majority of cars that have a rating are tested because that's a vital part of the decision process in selling /buying the car for example a family car. The A5 is not aimed at families so wasn't tested, however it's still built to the exact same standard and based on the A4 platform that is exceptional.
My personal experience with the A5 I can actually comment on how it is in a crash. I had a spinal injection after a major back injury and my first beast 59 plate 3.0l Quattro TDI was written off (19 k's worth of damage) after I got hit on the rear, hit a curb and spun 540 degrees into a wall and I walked away with no further problems and promptly bought a 63 one.
I couldn't ask for better protection other than, morons on the road not killing my baby! Hope this helps.
Ok thanks for that mate! Ever since i was a kid i wanted a audi and now that i got enough to get one i just got to decide which i been looking at getting a a3 or a5 coupeJust remember we know more about the cars than the dealers..... But I'll always have an audi after that and the crappest year of my life, best way to cheer up is spend s#*t loads on a bigger and better one good luck and buy soon so we can see your new beast.
Haha best get the coupe then what colour is yours mate?Coupe all the way...... I keep calling my mate Pinocchio as he still has an A3, he'll be a real boy soon
Hi
Has anyone who specced a towbar on the BE+ got a photo of how concealed it is?
Does it involve any bumper cuts?
@Blackstud and @Agric04 It's all down to the throttle map. Put a DTUK pedalbox on it and you will not believe the difference it makes. Your power will be the same as it does not change anything but the throttle position, but your access to your torque is night'n'day.I have to agree, I'm just come coming up to 2000 mark The pull away is there but after that it feels a bit dull. Audi should have upped the 177bhp to 200!, I still love the A5 over the A4 it's a fantastic car, anyone experienced the sloooow CD loading?
Looking to get the exact same car.What suspension have you got was thinking of going for the softer suspension as my black edition has the sports and is very firmDear All,
Having been lurking here since about February, I though it was about time I posted a huge thankyou. This thread was, for a long time the only source of information/photographs of the A5 BE+ that I could find anywhere on the net. It helped me while away the wait, which thankfully is nearly over. My 1st ever brand new car landed at the dealership today. Beyond excited...

Scott.T thanks I have the pedal bo X already can't be live how it's transformed the box.
Let us know what the maps like I had the Revo Stage 2 on my last Golf it was awesome......
Be interesting to see the difference between the Revo and the DTUK stage 2 box.
