    Me thinks the same person asking about leasing a Mercedes a week or so back.

    Don't do it!!!!!!! Save the money then buy it, by the time you have a couple of grand you won't want a car. You can't live in a car. (I am an ex-petrol head so I understand the draw).

    ......but for me it would be a TTS or S5 V8!

    I second this!

    OH had an S4 (identical car underneath, just the estate version) before the 535d, and it was the perfect car!

    S5 Cabrio is what I'd go for if I didn't have kids!

    Pretty sure this is a wind up, these do pop up every now and then on various motoring forums........

    Might be might not, there is a 25yr old on PH who has just bought himself a ferrari and a few weeks back had a nissan gtr! until a hailstorm made the bodywork look like a golfball.

    Do check the insurance prices as well -- that will add 1000's per year to the costs.
