Andyhunter Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Hi, new to this club used to drive a few Audis and liked them, recently I have had a few Discoveries but am now contemplating changing to a Q7 50tdi black edition or Vorsprung but have heard reports of excessive tyre wear 7/10k. Would love to hear from Q7 owners liked the Q7 to drive but got 25k plus out of tyres on the Discovery. Does the rear steering on the Vorsprung improve this, £1200 for a set of tyres every 4 months doesn’t encourage me. Responses appreciated Thanks Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Responses appreciated Thanks Andy Hi never owned one myself but my accountant recently had a real yearning to own one so I suggested he went and had a word with the garage I use when something is above my pay grade, he has fixed practically every Audi in the range [except electric he refuses to even look at them], anyway my guy explained the atrocities visited on the cars he has fixed including the poor guy that spent over a grand just in suspension parts to try and get the savage tyre wear down, apparently they are all the same so the accountant trolled off and bought a late Q5 S line which as per the garage owners recommendation has no tyre wear anomalies and is good all round reliable, he is well chuffed.

Andyhunter Posted March 17 Author Share Posted March 17 Cheers Steven, appreciate the response would not consider paying that for tyres every 4 months get a full year out of a set of Pirelli Scorpions on the Disco. Looking for a 7 seater and fresh Discos are hard to find may take a drive in a Defender 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andyhunter Posted March 18 Author Share Posted March 18 Yeah had a drive in the Volvo XC90 nice car but hard going down to a 2 litre, maybe should give it another chance 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
