Hi guys roughly a month ago I traded in my 2014 Mercedes A class A220 for a 2015 Audi A5 Sline black edition + and I love it , it’s a much nicer drive and a lot more comfortable. I was leaving the wife’s sisters house yesterday and her boyfriend left the same time in his 13 plate Audi TT black edition and he just walked away from me, how did that happen? His car has 168bhp and my A5 has 199bhp. Is it to do with the weight/size of my A5. Not sure if he’s modified it in any way. Thanks Craig

Welcome to the forums!

Depends on lots of variables such at Quattro or/and S tronic.

Weight plays an important role and the TT is anywhere from 150-200 KG lighter!

Unfortunately a S5 will never happen as I got 100 mile round trip for work,

Lol ok. BUT the A5 is a heavy and very well made car so with the 2L engine it is never gonna be fast off the mark. You need 4WD and you need the 3L engines to really get going, the 2L is great but getting all that weight moving is never going to be a traffic light winner.
