I'm looking at buying my wife a mid teens (2015/16) Q5 or Q7. I've owned an Audi A8 before and I've also owned a TDI Jetta that is still running with 200K miles on the original engine, trans and TURBO (if you can believe that). So I'm familiar with the quirks of VW/Audi ownership. She probably does NOT need a Diesel as we're not towing anything, but she's not a commuter and we would mostly use it for taking kids to school and road trips. BUT I just can't ignore the reliability of a TDI engine (assuming it's like my Jetta).
Anyway, I know she would likely want the larger vehicle, but is there a huge difference between the two? Reliability? Fuel mileage, etc? I know if I show her both she'll want the Q7, so I just want my ducks in a row if there is any glaring difference between the two. Considering she's not driving it for work or anything, fuel mileage is probably not a big issue for us.
Thanks in advance for any responses.
