Hello Audi experts!

I wondered if you'd be able to help me compare a couple of cars of similar price. I've tried to do this online but it's a really difficult job! Especially when trying to compare the quality of the respective technologies.

I'm looking at buying an A4 Avant 2.0 TFSI Black Edition (2015 - petrol - auto) . However, my wife is keen on a Q5 2.0 TFSI (2010 - petrol - auto) instead.
I'm wondering, in terms of interior and exterior technology, safety features, parking sensor, sat nav, etc would there be a lot of difference in the two cars? I'm leaning towards the newer version but would consider an older car if there wasn't much in it.
What do you guys think? Which would you buy?

Many thanks for your help!
Chris

No don't go for Q5, Audi A4 is better in long term service I mean, Q5 1st edition has a lot of problems in gearbox since that it's DSG it's not lasting so long and the life of the Mechatronics is very low and you have to replace it from time to time also the panoramic roof makes weird noises and you have to replace it and also some engines came with high oil consumption issue and there is a TSB to replace the piston with connecting rods kit.

but A4 it doesn't have these issues

I do recommend A4
