Car Deal of the Day: an Audi Q5 for £391 a month will make you talk of the town

The Audi Q5 is one of the most desirable SUVs on the road. It’s our Deal of the Day for 13 March.

  • Classy looks; well equipped
  • Fuel-efficient 2.0-litre diesel 
  • Only £391.24 a month

If the idea of a Genesis GV70 seems a little too leftfield when it comes to choosing a premium mid-sized SUV, then how about the more conventionally upmarket Audi Q5?

Through the Auto Express Buy A Car service, Select Car Leasing is offering the Q5 for just £391.24 a month at the moment, only a few pounds more than the Genesis GV70 deal we featured earlier this week

You need to stump up a pretty hefty £5,048.88 as a 12-month initial payment, but that’s what’s required for rock-bottom monthlies. However, you can knock this down to a nine-month initial payment, which comes to a more palatable £4,224.63, and only sees the monthly outlay rise to £430. 

Mileage, for the 12-month initial payment, is capped at 5,000 a year, which could be a bit limiting for some. That’s why we’d fork out another £7.82 a month and raise the annual limit to 8,000. Nudging up the limit is a particularly good idea because this deal gets you the frugal diesel, so having more scope to go further makes a lot of sense, as it’s a real mile-muncher. 

The diesel in question is 2.0-litre TDI, the default choice for a car like this a few years ago, as it’s a very smooth performer. There’s around 200bhp on tap and fuel economy is rated at over 47mpg. 

This deal gets you the Q5 in Sport trim, which is the entry-rung model, but the Audi is very well-equipped. Sport bags you 19-inch alloys, adaptive cruise control, four-zone climate control, front sports seats and a large touchscreen with smartphone connectivity.
