Audi A5 ‘Suicide’ Advert – Fake

The Audi A5 Suicide Avert has been dubbed a fake by Audi of America Doing the ‘Viral’ rounds over the last few days on the interweb has been a video for the Audi A5 ‘Clean Diesel’ which really didn’t seem to fit in to the non-contentious Audi mainstream ethos we are used to seeing. A carefully crafted image can easily be decimated by one careless word or deed (Gerald Ronson springs to mind) and, amusing though some of us with a sicker sense of humour found the A5 ad, we couldn’t see how Audi would sanction it – even just for online use. The advert features a man driving an Audi A5 in to a deserted car park.

Subaru XV gets a price cut – down by £1300 on 1.6 litre versions

It wasn’t a bad starting point for an able mid-sized crossover – a high-riding Impreza, in all but name –  but it wasn’t the cheapest offering in the class. But now, with the Yen being a bit kinder to Japanese car makers, Subaru has decided to nudge the price a bit lower to start the XV range off below £20k for the first time. The price drop for the XV only applies to the 1.6 litre petrol versions, but you can now get the entry-level XV 1.6i S for a more affordable £19,995 rising to £23,415 for the XV 1.6i SE with the Lineartronic gearbox, reductions across the range of £1300.
