I bought a CHEAP Audi A5 for £2000! Can I double my money?!

[@rpm172]

if you swap the front wheels for the rear wheels, it might help isolate your problem with shudder

[@stevenjones19-m8i]

Hi Joe, nice tidy car the Audi A5 and it has cleaned up well.having the timing chain done knowing somebody has looked after it.

[@SportFury1966]

What's the Key to Comedy? Timming

[@SportFury1966]

You should read out the manufacture dates during your tyre look-ins; more important than tread depth. Not to besmirch the legend that is the P308 Plus, of course. The leather colour works because it's *not* tan, but yes: brown.

[@hyperhart100]

I found vehicle score to be well out, not only did it give me a vehicle value of half of what my car is it also give me a low score compared to complete sheds.

[@piovo1]

its just based of previous MOTs im pretty sure and failure and advisories lowers the score alot

[@hyperhart100]

Only bad point it come up with that the car is 10 years old, it’s a Sept 2013 with 49k, anything needed doing has been done, always serviced, HPI clear, failed a MOT on headlight beam but only because they didn’t adjust the manual level switch on the dashboard. It’s worth at least 10k and they estimated around the 5k mark.

If it's a diesel it will have dropped loads because of ulez both my cars have on all websites dropped like a stone

My mothers' 1.8T A3 Cabrio on a 58 plate had an identical wobble - it was a driveshaft but didn't seem apparent all the time

That’s interesting 🤔

Huge fan of videos joe, watch them all, especially fond of the new “weekly follow along” videos, I was wondering, other than the cars you can drive from work, what is your actual car, like your daily/weekend car that’s on the drive at home? Just triggered my interest. Cheers mate.

[@ShiftingMetal]

I don’t have one currently. Well, I have the high mileage BMW 320d from an earlier video but my Mrs has stolen that!

[@Mickyfinn84]

Got a really cool Audi. I quite like the brown interior.

[@stevenking2946]

Just put my 2016 mondeo 2.0 titanium x sport through vehicle score, 156k miles, says its above average life expctancy, also says its worth £7600 to 9500, considering i paid 9k for it 3 years ago and at 100k miles..., im quite pleased about the depreciation, so ill keep on putting on my 20/30k a year and not worry when even when it hits 200k.

Another great video, Joe. After Jordans magic looks stunning, the tan leather duiys the car and with service history and ice cold A/C nice car for someone someone. Audi build quality at a reasonable price, well bought and will be well sold.

Thanks Julien! 🫡

Do like brown leather... my X3 has "Mocha Vernasca" I'm toying with selling it... if you're interested - it's Black Sapphire with the Plus and Tech packs, 3.0 diesel, 53k on an 18 plate 😉

Answer without watching. Probably !! Suns out. I’ve been mopping. Oh. Good engine for the A5. The V6 2.7d is kinda too dangerous. As many a diesel is suppose. Right engine. Autogrip. Nice.

Watch out for the oil consumption issues due to the faulty piston rings Audi used during that period on the petrol engine

Didn't realise the A5 had been around for so long as it still looks contemporary. The seat colour isn't too bad but not keen on the pattern.

When you accelerate the wheels immediately have more traction on the tarmac which would annul the sensation of shocker vibration.

[@fathertiresias8561]

Second hand car prices have gone completely bonkers. 5 years ago a fifteen year old car withh 100k+ miles and a potential for the need of very expensive parts would be lucky to retail at £1500. Now £4000!! Insane

Hmm, maybe not that extreme but the prices certainly have gone up a lot!
