Audi Q5 2.0 TFSI quattro SE S tronic review

Rated 2.5 out of 5

Anthony ffrench-Constant, 27 November 2008 10:34

Well, you do have to admire the attitude… Whilst my colleagues in the media remain determined to talk us all into ‘the forthcoming recession’ just because a pox of relentlessly greedy estate agents have had to give their Minis back and get proper jobs, Audi is having none of it.At the recent 2008 Paris motor show, Audi obersturm gruppenfuhrer Rupert ...

Audi Q7 V12 TDI CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 5

Glen Waddington, 18 September 2008 10:30

There are big numbers at play with the Audi Q7 V12 TDI. Try these for size: 2635kg (big SUV), V12 (the first 12-cylinder diesel engine yet fitted to a passenger vehicle), 493bhp (it’s the most powerful, too), 738lb ft (that’s one hell of a stack of torque) and £96,295 (yes, you read that right). The question is, do all the numbers ...

Audi A4 2.0 TDI SE CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 5

Glen Waddington, 09 July 2008 10:49

If you want an Audi, you’re set on the badge, the image, the perceived quality, maybe the technology, the fuel economy and emissions. How does it ...

Glen Waddington, 25 March 2008 11:35

Logic dictates that you should just ignore the Audi A3 and buy a Golf, because it's more spacious, cheaper and better-equipped. But logic would deny you an appealing car if accommodation matters less to you than image. There's no denying the A3 is a slick little hatchback, and the hi-tech appeal of this little turbocharged 1.4-litre engine suits it well.An ...

Audi S5 CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 5

Anonymous, 26 April 2007 01:20

Have I missed something? How can we be reading about an S5 when we haven't even had an A5? Because Audi knew BMW was going to launch its M3 this spring and wanted to spoil the Munich firm's thunder. So it decided to launch both the A5 and its hot 354bhp S5 spin-off at the same time. The £39,725 S5 ...

Audi S3 (2006) CAR review

Rated 2 out of 5

Anonymous, 31 August 2006 07:56

Hot hatch So the fast A3 returns. What’s the story this time? It’s the same basic recipe: turbocharged four-pot motor and Haldex four-wheel drive system, a great cabin and a price that makes it appear suspiciously poor value beside a couple of other Volkswagen-group cars. The old S3 was always aware of its place below the TT in the hierarchy. ...
