Q5 BUYING TIPS REQUIRED
Glad I could help :) just to add my personal experience, the last 5 cars that have been bought by my family including m, my wife and both my parents have cone from main dealers as approved used. The last 2 cars bought from independent garages cost alot more in repairs as more things went wrong with them. Well the theory was, buyer's wanted 4x4 for winter conditions (ie snow and ice) and in the spring/summer buyer's wanted convertibles. There maybe some truth in this but it's less obvious now due to the popularity of SUVs. Cheers Steve

Q5 BUYING TIPS REQUIRED
Welcome to the forum Lyndon, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :) I would like to think that over the next 4 months the price will drop especially when we get towards the summer months. In terms of negotiatation I think this will depend on whether or not you are taking finance. However my experience is that the German manufacturers are less inclined to negotiate and reduce the price whereas I've found manufacturers such as Vauxhall are willing to negotiate. If you are taking finance then you are more likely to get a better price. I.e money off or more for your px. Obviously you've also got the scrappage scheme going on at the minute with Audi which could be worth considering depending on the value/age of your current car. Also you should find the Q5 models that are available from Audi approved used are better than those more private garages but obviously this is not always definite. But they will have full Audi service history, low miles and will.come with warranty. Hope I've helped :) Cheers Steve

Service History
The recall is for both the 1.6tdi and 2.0tdi engines and is a software update. Id be very careful about buying a vag car that's had the emissions recall carried out. Here are the threads that Gareth is referring too: https://www.audiownersclub.com/forums/topic/6813-problems-after-ea189-engine-emissions-update/ Cheers Steve

Dyno Results - Sad Face :(
I'm sorry to hear this Scott. My advice would be to speak to the Audi dealer in question to see if they have either done the emissions recall or software update. They will have this stored on their database. When I worked at volkswagen customers had to sign a document to say that the cars map was standard before the emissions recall would be carried out. However the software update is often classed as a recall and as such has to be carried out (safety items definitely) but you should have to option to decline the software update in my opinion. Keep us posted on how you get on. Cheers Steve

Boots and Trunks, and origins of 'Go faster' stripes?
Yay! I got an answer correct! :) It's very interesting Gareth, and I would never have thought the stripes we're linked to chassis colour! Feel free to post another one of these questions Gareth as they do get members involved :) Cheers Steve

'Exclusive' ended in UK?
