Default Fifth gear logo on Audi A4???

I've noticed that during the breaks there is an artsy shot of the Fifth Gear logo on the side of an Audi A4 and sometimes other shots of the A4.

Is FG receiving compensation from VW-AG for this or does someone at FG just really like the shape of the new A4?

Anyone know the scoop?

I think it was just a proposal for a separator that was well accepted, and stayed. You can only see it's an A4 if you're an anorak (like me)... images/smilies/mrgreen.gif

I think It was mainly the 2003 series they did it...

The A4 probably fit within some artistic directors sense of vision.
