 Quote: Audi is planning to make a huge impact at the upcoming Frankfurt Motor Show with three big releases confirmed. The S5 Sportback, the A4 3.0TDI clean diesel Quattro and the A3 1.2 TFSI will be the three big names showcased at the event. The Audi S5 Sportback is a five-door coupe which is driven by a 3.0-litre V6 engine equipped with a supercharger. It churns 333hp with 440Nm of torque at 2,900rpm to 5,300rpm and is capable of pelting from 0 - 100km/h in 5.4 seconds with a top speed of 250km/h. The V6 engine is mated with a seven-speed S Tronic dual-clutch transmission. Scheduled for a launch next year, the Audi S5 Sportback will come with a base price of €57,900 in Germany.

Nice looking car...but did you see the results of the most reliable survey done in the UK earlier this year? Audi A5 was in the bottom 5 for reliability  Most reliable cars had 2 Hondas in the top 10 (Jazz & Accord)  impressive. Should be noted that most of the reliable cars were base models, the high performance or top of the range often fell short due to electronics etc....which was probably the case with the Audi A5. _________________ " To win without risk is to triumph without glory" 1998 Kadette 200is2.5 V6 Conversion2007 Zafira

Yes,... Rather hard to believe actually... Who administered the survey? Synovate?

Im not entirely sure, but it would be worthwhile checking again to see who ranked where.
Its a well known fact that Vauxhall isnt seen in the best light abroad in terms of build quality, so im sure the Astra would be somewhere in the middle to lower half of this survey.
