I would normally hang out over in the A6 section, however i have found myself looking around fro an S5...
questions
I am after a manual and these all seem to be with the 4.2 V8 can you get a 3.0 V6 manual?
there seems to be a lot of black with red leather, is that a nod back to the 80s and the Mouton interior where it was said to match her lipstick?
also the multi stack CD player some do some dont i take it was an option and can it be changed ?

what are they like to live with?

Thanks,

Every man should own a V8 before he dies… even if the running costs will make a grown man cry

should that not be an I5? lol V8 would be very nice, 20 mpg? used to 30ish in my diesel and with petrol being cheaper man maths will justify it.
I need to get my finger out and get my cq back on the road.

20mpg? On a run maybe... around town my 1.8T Octavia is giving me 14 at the moment, the traffic is horrendous around here. This morning, 45 minutes to travel 2 miles!
