jon_bousfield Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 Between the Sport and S-Line models....apart from the obvious £1270. Currently speccing up a new A5 3.0TDI and need to choose, but having never owned an Audi I'm a bit clueless. I'm guessing its just cosmetic bits and bobs rather than anything substantial - am I right? Is the extra worth it folks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 Have a look at pages 10 and 12 here : Redirect Basically it seems to be body kit, wheels, interior trim, MF steering wheel, Xenon headlights and suspension. Depends what you're after of course. Primarily I'd say which do you prefer the look of but it seems a decent upgrade for the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booster Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 Only downside to the S Line spec is that that the wheels you get as part of the upgrade aren't the best and the only other attractive option is the RS style ones but there is an additional cost and they are 20". Add this to the lowered S Line suspension and it could be a very hard ride. Don't know why they won't let you spec the 19" Y wheels with S Line :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon_bousfield Posted February 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 Thanks guys. I'm not too bothered about the interior upgrades and think I'm right in saying the suspension set up you get with the Sport will be almost identical to the S-Line? - or not noticeably different in any case. I don't think I could live with the ride of those 20" rims though - as good as they look. Like you say booster odd that the 19" Y design ones aren't an option with S-Line!! To me these are the best looking by far of all the options. I guess decision then is whether the exterior bits are worth the money? - in the photos the S-Line definitely looks that bit more aggressive and stylish but is it 1270 quid better?............................aaaaaaaaahhhhhh the dilemma continues!!!

Chav Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 in my experience, s-line suspension on any audi comfier than sport...its less floaty, more reassuring, less tiresome (not as much bouncing) etc. also makes car look better as its a bit lower, and its safer if you're making progress. bigger wheels dont impact on comfort as much as many folks on here say. personally i cant really tell the sodding difference unless the suspension of the car is crap anyway. If its a private purchase, an s-line model will be much easier to shift when you want to sell it. although buying a new car isnt an investment of course.
