Audi RS5 Sportback
Discussion
Anybody out there have any idea when this goes on sale in the UK?
I tried Audi UK via e-mail and got no answer, and the local dealership (who shall remain nameless) are utterly useless - told me there was no such car and tried to sell me an RS4 - if I wanted an RS4 I'd have bloody asked for one !!
Any info would be appreciated.

I'd agree with that, this went round before Christmas:
"The Audi RS5 Sportback, revealed at the Geneva motor show in March, has been delayed for UK and European release. Audi Sport marketing manager Linda Kurz admitted that the model has been prioritised for the US, where there is significantly more demand for it, given the RS4 and RS6 hot estates are not on sale there."
RS4 is still current so we'll probably get that back first, then once that's compliant it probably isn't a big walk for the RS5 to join the party. Going by the above though Audi may not think it will do enough volume to justify worrying about it in the short term. Could even see new RS6/7 first.
