Audi SQ5- humble pie tastes so good!

[jimt3te50]

Just ordered one of these to replace the missus' beloved Q7 with the 4.2FSI V8 petrol.

I'll add to this I DESPISE diesel cars. I hate them. I can't attest as to how much, I just do. Hence eating humble pie- I said I'd never buy a diesel car.

But this thing is an absolute polished, genuine weapon of a car. I'm blown away by it. It's very well finished but that typical Audi and exactly what I expected. I'll add that this is the same price as a fully loaded Range Rover Evoque and worlds apart as for what you actually get. The Evoque is also the car she wanted, but she was so disappointed with it but absolutely fell in love with the SQ5. I can't believe how quick it was though and it actually doesn't sound anything like a diesel. People say that a lot about new cars but the Rangie sounded every bit like a crappy old diesel, it was so noisy... My wife's not a car person, but she had a smile from ear to ear after driving the SQ5, comparatively she told me she could get used to the Rangie. I don't want to spend $100k on a car that she's happy to get used to, if she doesn't love it we're not getting it.

Has anyone got or looked at one of these?

Should be here in two weeks and I'll be sad to see the big Q7 go- I love the 4.2 petrol V8 engine with its Remus exhaust and smooth beautiful, sophisticated engine note at 6800rpm. We've not had one single issue with the Q7 and I'd still argue that it's a better car than the one were buying but it is time to change and the SQ5 fits the bill perfectly.

But I'm still amazed at how impressed I was with the SQ5- I had to have it.

For the wife of course...:
