How long or how many do you intend to drive your S5 B9 for?

I intend to keep mine until an M440i gran coupe is available...
Of course that could be MY 2022, or maybe never. I drive 16,000 km. a year. So in 12 years there could be an S5 Sportback with over 200,000 km. on it in my driveway.

A very long time.....! This car was meant to be driven and with my 170 mile round trip commute daily’s are going to get well aquatinted. Estimating to have at least 35k this year. I wish I could move closer to the job, but can’t for the time being. #MotorTrendLongTermTestDrive

Yeah....I’m sucking it up for the time being until I can change my wife’s mind to move closer to the city. Meanwhile, I’ll be enjoying my ride up and down the highway with the massage seats on.

when I bought my first Audi Q5, I had a 100 miles RT daily commute. It was brutal - so a few months later I moved and cut down the commute to only 25 miles RT. Mileage really racked up on the Q5 FAST. I feel for ya.

My other ride is a 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser that I bought off the showroom floor in Nov 2006. Every time I think about selling her, I don't.
I see me keeping the A5 for a while, especially since I have an extended warranty to 75k miles but put less than 5000 miles/yr on her.

Some people drive it a lot, some people drive it a little, some people love to talk about how they keep their cars "for 10 years", some people are in and out of a car every 9 months.
Two things are for certain: 1) any reply in this thread is likely just arbitrary speculation 2) it absolutely does not matter.
