So couple of calls to my respective BMW and Audi dealers to ask for a drive of the new M5 and another go with the RS5 (which forms the basis of the new RS4 I have a deposit on for next year) has resulted me having both for a long weekend !!!

Doing a day trip (320 mile round trip) to see inlaws tomorrow and although thankfully I prefer the Audi, I'm swaying on taking the BM for the novelty factor!

BM is far too powerful in this weather and traction is really quite poor. No such probs with RS with its quattro.

RS5 sounds 100 times better than the M5 too, particularly on the inside.

Here are some pics for now. Will post more after the trips (I have a long road trip on Monday too for the RS)

Two lovely cars there ....wouldnt mind either parked on my drive
Would love to hear the sound of the RS5 .....enjoy.

They leave those cars in that council estate?


Interesting set - both auto boxes I assume?

Don't start the old auto thing!

Yes both twin clutch autos

Audi will not change up or down when in manual mode

Suited to a pen pusher like you.

Taking the lawyer for a ride?

Just awesome - Sooo IF you're away the other car is on it's lonesome. I can look after it for you?

I love the look of the M5 though. Get some shots of the inside if you can be bothered...

Lovely cars!

Was it 5th Gear who did the review tonight on the M5???

Yes, but I was not allowed to watch it ...

Cos you had to sort the garage or get some Vino!

Yes the RS is at home but has no fuel in it now

The M5 was on 5th gear but I was out driving the real thing!

I have recorded it but I'm sure it is all about VBH sliding it around and screaming really annoyingly

Seriously, take the Beemer, that reds nasty! lol

I did and bugger me it is scary in the wet!

But what a great car to have fun in, I too am not sure about the red for the Audi, but hey, it's only a demo

Enjoy

Agreed red not good although vaguely better in flesh

Some nice cars there, how did the drive go?
