BennettVilla Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Hi all, Looking to get an A5 pretty sharpish. Ive got two good offers - white s-line or black SE Id much prefer the white but its a little more expensive. Question is- is it worth that £1000 more for an S-Line over an SE?

CI Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Yes it is. What bhp are you looking at ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eames Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Mother in law has one. Its gorgeous. You NEED the S-Line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CI Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I think the s-line has 3-4k worth of extras on it do it's a no brainer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ender4 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I have an Audi A4 - lovely car. yes the S-line is worth £1k extra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyh29 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 (edited) I have an A5 3 litre TDi Quattro Sportsback - I went with the S line gives it a sportier feel , better suspension and a better trim It's a lovely looking car car , great to drive (and fun ) my only criticism would be that when you open the boot sometimes after it's been raining then some water does drip inside the boot to add a little bit of perspective my brother drives a Porsche and when we had a race there was nothing between the 2 cars (if anything i slightly edged it) , which hacked him off no end what with mine being a Diesel engine family car and his being a 2 seater sports car :-) I've had BMW's (3 series ) and Jags (XF) previously .. nothing comes close to the Audi IMO ...

darrenm Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 S-Lines will always have much better resale value because every fecker wants one. Unless there's an insurmountable price difference between the 2, go for the S-Line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choffer Posted March 20, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted March 20, 2013 Almost five years to the day that I part-x'd my Audi and I still miss it. Hoping I get a bonus this year or my upcoming tax rebate amounts to enough to think about getting rid of my current motor and get back behind the wheel of an Audi again.

Xela Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 S4 or S5 for me next hopefully. Always been a BMW man (also had a Merc) but do like Audi's and it will be my next car I get. My parents have both moved to Audi's now from BMW and Mercedes before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tayls Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Yea I have an 8 year old Fiesta ST.... Cracking car, get one of these instead? Only £230 tax a year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CI Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 BMW have fallen behind a bit IMHO . The new e class merc is great and I'd put that up on a par with the A5 tbh Quite like the avant models and the allroad Quattro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My arse! I've got a 4.0L M3 and it's waaaaaaaay better than any Audi I've ever driven. (Apart from the chairman's R8 Spyder, that's nice). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knoppy1987 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Audi's, Beemers, Mercs etc. are boring. Just buy an Alfa and enjoy looking back to see it everytime you get out of it instead of looking at a field of the same car. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Audi's, Beemers, Mercs etc. are boring. Just buy an Alfa and enjoy looking back along the motorway at bits of it. You can even buy 'Alfa Nets' now, they hook on the back and collect up all the bits like indicators that tend to fall off. I've done 145,000 miles in 3 years, I can't imagine how many garage visits that would require in an Alfa. Well, I can actually, most people in the office have given in to the craving at some point and bought one. None have ever reached the end of the lease period, nobody has ever gone back to Alfa for another. They genuinely are pretty though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BennettVilla Posted March 20, 2013 Author Share Posted March 20, 2013 The s-line does look much nicer. Think I'll be getting that then, gonna be living off bread and water for a year but be worth it. Been offered one for 200 quid more with bang & olufsen speakers. I always have music on when driving and sometimes quite loud (without trying to sound too chavvy) Is it worth having the b&o speakers if anyone has any?
