VERY nice spec d8ean, that is going to be one fun motor!!! Defo worth the wait, I could have picked several colours tbh, hell, I even liked that custard thing someone posted but not the extra 2k for a custom colour!! Glacier looks the nuts to me.
Think of it this way.....You've got Xmas and New Year coming up to keep you incredibly busy / take your mind of it somewhat, then during the coldest and most boring months of the year when there is nothing happening (Jan & Feb) you have got the S3 looming imminently + the start of the good weather to look forward to!!
Well said, very true!! My wife keeps taking the **** out of me, "it's just a car" she says, she's right in a way of course but it's so much more than that, when you wait nearly 4 years to change its a damn long time!!
I've done a fair few miles now and can confirm that if you do not use good high grade fuel you will notice a difference. Mine had tick over problems which even flashed the engine management light on. Only put s**t fuel in because I was caught out with my fuel light on (again!!) and in desperate need for fuel.
I get the impression that you can get the electronic adjustment on the SS seats as an option in the UK and Europe, it is just not an option in Australia.Fair enough. Just a little disappointed that other makers can do electric adjustment on their sport seats. Oh well, no choice but to have the SS Seats with the S Performance pack down here. Will love it regardless!
Look at it as one less thing that can go wrong this car already has too much high teck that if it goes wrong its costly too diagnose and fixFair enough.

I ordered a week and a half ago but still have no build date. Dealer said he would check today to see if he had one. No call so I'm assuming I still don't have one.
Nah... it's those of us nice people who don't have PP's who get the best deals.. (joking!!) And cash is oooh so common! ;-0
Dealer just rang me, my build date wasn't showing on his system so he rang Audi sales dept and they've told him my build date is week 7. My order was placed last Thursday.
Ha ha, tis the season to be jolly so we can joke about PP's!! (private plates for the record!). Yeh, cash is overrated!
Yeh, I was surprised that Dec orders we're being quoted wk 7 bearing in mind what you were quoted, wk 4 sounds ok though. Lots of factors affecting it all I suppose, I wonder how long it takes to build the car from start to finish? Would be great to collect from Germany but too much hassle involved.
Pity. Trip to the factory would be great though. Yes, would happily contribute to some German beer consumption Audi if you're watching!
well I am haha! I also ordered alcantara, they messed up the order and put in full leather, so they compensated with £500 off the deposit, free GAP insurance and full tank of fuel. WKDDDDD
I was going very slowly as i heard the noise straight after starting off, so i seriously doubt there'd be any damage to the callipers, possibly a little paint came off them. Anyway, I'll ask audi to check for safe measure. @S3quatt: none taken, i just didn't think it would pose a problem. I did check the callipers didn't touch the alloys and also reversed slightly and went forward slightly to check all was ok, obviously all was fine as the weights didn't have the chance of passing under the callipers... I must admit spinning the wheels would have been a far smarter move.
