The utterly unflappable Audi Q5
All summer long I’ve been dreaming of an entirely white winter in order to maximise the smugness of being behind the wheel of this Q5: four-wheel drive, high driving position, heated seats and even a heated cupholder. Yet in my part of the world at least, the temperature has barely been cold enough to qualify as autumn.
In fact it was only a few weeks ago that the Q5 was pressed into service for family holiday duties, one activity that usually guarantees rain. Yet the sun beat down on the Q5’s grey metallic paintwork and I’ve still yet to vacuum the sand from the back seats.
