SUV buying advice?
I have an 09 Kia Sorento because I occasionally have to tow my daughters horse box. I hanker after a Q5 as read a review ages ago that said it could tow out of a muddy gateway with ease? And having had an A4 in the past would love another Audi. What do you suggest?

Q5 3.0 TDI is a lovely vehicle that forms the basis of the Porsche Macan. But there have been just a couple of cases of failure of the special longitudinal wet clutch 7 speed twin clutch transmission that was specially developed for the Q5 and new Q7.
