I have to say the back end makes me think more 'austin princess' than 70's lambo...

perhaps the best thing that could be said about it is that it is less hideous than the 5 series GT.

My thoughts precisely. TC, get thee to SpecSavers.

God no! The 5GT looks like it's wearing a backpack.
and this looks like an elephant's rear pushing one out.

Saw a black one in York a couple of weeks ago and I liked it but I'd much rather have a CLS.

Yeah, saw a black one at a petrol station in Milton Keynes a couple of weeks ago. It's a bit different to their usual tedium but it's still a snoozeworthy blandfest. Whilst the Mercedes CLS exists, there is no reason for anyone to buy an A7, ever.

Just so we're clear, you think this car looks like a Vauxhall Calibra?
Yes, most Audis do. Especially the white ones.

I never thought I'd say this but. It would be better if it was dull.

I'm just glad they made the back end look a bit different. I saw a large Audi the other day and couldn't figure out which one it was from behind. Can you blame me?

Saw my first A7 Sportback a few days ago and thought it looked amazing - I seriously have an issue with Audi's Russian Doll approach to design, but this looked great in the rear view mirror and as it came past me. Not had the chance to see one stood still, but first impressions were good. Surprisingly.

I do like the A5 too.

Well all that is left is the A2 as we have 1 and then 3 to 8

I'm sure the A2 will return but i expect lots of chrome silly headlights and very little innovation

It is another Audi. Just another Audi.

I suppose the "imagine" is quite strong with Audi these days as you would have to try bloody hard to imagine the differences between one model and another.

thats the best kind of Prius.

And not a fan of that A7 im afraid, just a variation on a rep-tastic theme
