Sounds right.

I used to listen to a lot of early to mid 90s US hip hop as a teenager and those chaps were all about the Lexus with relatively little mention of Merc/BMW back then.

It looks like a murder house. Most houses in America do to me, but this one especially.

2.0 L EA888 TFSI I4 + Mild Hybrid 48V 190 (40 TFSI / 40 TFSI S-Line)

2.0 L EA888 CDLA TFSI I4 + Mild Hybrid 48V 252 (45 TFSI/45 TFSI Quattro)

Mild hybrid too, who knew?

Likely one of these

Mates Mum had hers nicked, was used in a robbery.

First car I knew to have a digital speedo. Very Knight Rider

A Japanese Mercedes?

It’s pink…

It does look lovely, inside and out. Hope it all works out!

Belt and braces, try logging in on someone else’s phone who has never been to Ecuador…

I had an Manual A5 FWD a few years back and it was all but undrivable in slippery conditions - best of luck Did you have a 2.7, or was that someone else? When the tc and esp kicked in did it flash up "should have bought a quattro" on the dash? I had the 3.0 (it’s still outside :lol: ). I ...

I didn’t have a close look at anything else but they were happy to sort a barely noticeable scuff on the rear of mine before collection.

They’re worth a look if you see something you like. Just be prepared for the sad faces when you refuse their finance/GAP/warranties etc.

Not sure I've seen those wheels before?

Knew it wouldn’t take long

2019 Audi A5 40 TFSI S Line 5dr S Tronic

It appears to be FULLY LOADED. CarPlay, tech pack, heated seats, virtual cockpit. Body work, wheels and interior are like new. I like it!

German, FWD, grey.

I use electric scooters regularly. I think they’re limited to 12.5mph. 20mph would be nice, 60mph… big bowl of fuck that!
