I have been informed that Audi will announce a price increase in new cars from 1 January 2014 in South Africa. This has already be in the news for India see http://www.firstpost.com/business/from-jan-2014-mercedes-bmw-audi-to-cost-more-in-india-1270807.html. Does anybody have more info on this ? Is this going to be a global thing now ? Spoke to my dealer this morning, expecting my new car 16 January 2014. Could not give me a final quote due to an increase of possible 3-5 %. What about cars that has been ordered October 2013 ? Do we have price protection ?
