Audi S5 Avant.
What to Check Before Buying.
The Audi S5 Avant combines estate practicality with genuine performance credentials, powered by a supercharged V6 or turbocharged V6 depending on generation. It appeals to buyers wanting speed, space and quattro all-wheel drive without stepping up to full RS territory. While refined and capable, these cars rack up miles quickly and need careful inspection around service history, quattro system health, and whether previous owners maintained the car properly or just drove it hard.
