Car Review: 2007 Audi S5 V8

I got behind the wheel of the powerful Audi S5 Coupé. I was greeted by black leather electric seats which were quite comfortable. Because this is a 4 seater the rear legroom was limited despite the 2751 mm wheelbase. A few of my favorite features were the front LED xenons headlamps which made the coupé look futuristic, the roaring V8 under the bonnet but the V8 came with a penalty, poor fuel economy and high emissions and the sat nav. It is easy to navigate around and understandable. My friend found it hard to navigate the satellite navigation system but it came natural to me...

Pros:

Spacious cabin, satellite navigation, LED headlamps & tail lamps, V8 engine.

Cons: Thirsty engine, headroom, rear leg/knee room.
