This is my little Jag. My highly impractical but fun drive. 4.2 Supercharged, and modded for more torque and performance.

HMMM seem to have messed this post up. Feel free to delete mods. 🙂

Thanks Gareth. Just curious did you choose the name Magnet to make you more attractive? 😁 I am not deserting the Jaguar Brand. Keeping my loverly XKR as my weekend fun car. The Audi will be my more practical car. Being able to take more passengers and long trips etc. Will not bore you with the details but at the moment the 'practical car' is basically a van. 🙄 So I shall sell that and get a nice Audi. Your right about dealerships. I passed one yesterday. Went to look around and I heard a tap on a window as I browsed outside. "Had I booked an appointment to look?" No. Then I am sorry you will have to book an appointment and come back later. Yea right. Thanks for taking the time to reply Gareth.

Slightly underwhelmed by all the responses..............

This is a bit silly really as I do not yet have an Audi, and I bet you have it fixed by now anyway. Was it by any chance a failed relay? Or even a fuse? Usually there is one relay for the up and one for the down? The best way to test is to swap relays. Then it will go down and not up. Did you get it fixed? Just curious. 🙂

Hi guys, I have been looking for another car recently. A more practical one with more seats etc. Currently I have a very nice Jaguar XKR, yes I will wash my mouth out with soap and water later. So far I have decided I like the Audi A5 convertible. Will buy the 2020 version but wait till next year. Being a tight so and so I will no doubt get it cheaper by then. My problem is this. There are so many variables it's 'doin my ed in' so to speak. Perhaps you can help me out by answering a few questions. 1. I have been told the Diesel is more reliable than the petrol version. True? If diesel is better is there a good version of the diesel model? 2. Which versions of the A5 come with parking assist, where car takes itself into/out of a parking space. (I like my toys) 3. Do all the new, 2020, versions come with the virtual cockpit? 4. As I said I do like my 'toys' so is there a version, model that comes with all of them? 5. Is there anyone local to me, Malvern Worcestershire, with the A5 newer model that can show me what to look out for etc. No doubt I will go for one with what I call 'I want one eyes' rather than practical or subjective eyes. I look forward to hearing from you. Hope this is the start of one of many posts. Thanks!
