I missed out on the Fleetsauce and Select Car leasing S5 coupe deal but had a quote from a local Audi dealer of £318.26 + Vat based on 9 + 23 months at 10k miles, strangely enough she said that its the same price whether 6k or 8k miles. Is this an OK deal? I know Select were offering them at £299 + vat about 2 weeks ago but not sure what Fleetsauce were offering them at.

Is that price including any options or just base spec?

That was the base price. It was £361 + vat to include the options I wanted.

The original deal that I saw on the S5 was at CVL and they were offering the S5 Sportback for £3600 deposit plus 23x £323.99. That was for a base spec car...

The deal that I got via Fleetsauce as did a number of people on this thread was £3600 deposit and 23x £320 per month (£10960 over the lease term vs £12221.12 for your deal...so yours works out at £1261.12 more expensive...or in real terms around £50 a month more expensive which in my opinion is a lot!)

Good luck

I'd stick with Black, it will make my Navarre Blue that little bit more exclusive wink

Sat in the current model s5, wasn't impressed with cabin size tbh, hope I don't find it to crammed...

The video reviews look OK, one of the reviewers is 6.1 so I'm hopeful.

Can't bare the wife saying 'i told you it would be to small inside' 😬

Dash looks so dated compared to new type.

Dealer said they are getting one in during December.

I've gone for a coupe in Brilliant Black and these are the only pictures I could find (at least I think these are Brilliant and not Mythos Black);





Also, as it's a lease, I could of well been tempted if Vegas yellow was an option even if Audi charge for this solid colour, and even mores as it's Audi Exclusive on the S5, as I think it looks great;



especially with the contrast stitching in yellow too;

Ok so I've finally messed around for the last time with my spec, the flat bottom wheel has gone and red brake callipers have been added. I thought given the red/black theme I've got going on inside and out, and the fact that the brakes are that bit larger than your 2.0d, it be a shame not to highlight them a bit. Also I've been watching how I feed the wheel over the last few weeks (badly) and recon the flat bottom might look good but not be that great for me.

Solid black, red interior, VC and red callipers.

Flat bottom steering wheel is good for me being tall, I have one in my current run around and really like it.

excludin vat it muat of been then! thanks for clearing that up my understanding is the prices were inc vat - should not always take peoples posts at face value. i will still look into it today - still save money but the main thing is the s4 looks more agressive from the front and it has the black pack available
Just be careful Simon, by the time you add metallic, black pack and VC you'll be up to over a grand of options, and I assume you'll be looking at the 19" wheels, adding options just kills the value in these leases.

I'm really undecided as to whether or not to change my colour to Navara Blue, as I'm worried the black might not be as nice as the press cars I've seen on you tube etc, but can't bring myself to spend the money on a change of colour!

First world problems chaps.
The S4 worked out 10 pounds a month cheaper so not much in it. spec the same as i had except take standard black and add the black styling pack. Also swapped to red leather and piano black trim inside.
As you said first world probs lol. Constantly playing around on the audi config is a daft idea but something i cant help do!

Thanks for the pictures, looks great there. Justhe-1, wanted to go navarra as the colour being lighter and metallic will show of the cars lines better but it looks good in black too. Just the thought of keeping the overall lease cost down without metallic is making me stick to black.


Also, has anyone noticed (or is it just me) that there are two types of rear diffusers on the S5???

The one on the blue S5 looks much better!

Hawkeye you lad!
Subtle difference but the blue is more defined and the red a bit soft.

Good spot.. Def prefer the latter.

Looking at the Audi configurator, it appears to show the diffuser as the same as the one on the blue car, not that that means much though...

Maybe the diffuser is slightly more aggressive on the coupe than the sportback although the configurator shows the same on both cars so maybe its just the lighting.

The red one is the coupe and the blue one is the sportback. There is definitely a difference, just seems strange why they have two different ones

Red one says sportback on the license plate so think it might be the other way around.

Maybe they are just early releases and they all come with the same.

Hoping it's the blue cars version though!

My bad yes both are the sportbacks and both from the LA auto show. Let's hope it will be like the blue one
