26 days, one hour and ten minutes before I drive mine out of the dealership...
I've got a golf mk5 gti.
I've ordered an S3 SB
Can't get away with the mk7 body styling. The R looks like a normal model where as the mk6 looked much more sporty.
Love the mk7 interior but am diss appointed with the exterior. And I hate the red stripe through the headlights on the gti!!
Plus the Mk7 R is more expensive. Not spending close to £40 for a golf!
Yes sort of me as well. MkV GTI, MkVI R, and now S3 SB on order. I really like the way VAG do things, but was just after a bit more refinement in my old age. Didn't want an S5 as they just look too big and it's only me in there. Thought about a Sirroco R but the inside was identical to the R. It is clear that it is all from the same parts bins when you look at the switch gear, steering wheel etc, but somehow the Audi just feels a bit more grown up.Interesting... I'm also coming from a MK5 GTI and one of the main reasons I don't want the MK7 R (it will be about 5-10k AUD cheaper than the S3 down under) is the interior. It looks so similar to my car even though it is ~8 years newer!
The S3 looks beautiful inside by comparison!
Superb pictures.
Love how the sun totally transforms the estoril into an electric eye popping blue.
its an amazing colour from that perspective, never had a car that can have 2 looks like this.
On a dull day, its a very dark blue so looks very classy and aggressive.
On a sunny day, the blue lightens massively and creates a stunning looking shade of blue.
A truly stunning colour from Audi.
You're just biased
It is a great colour. Seen it on S5, S3 and looks very smart on both. Only Sepang or Mica Blue would top it for me (neither of which are quite as classy)
I don't know how to link on Flickr. Doesn't seem very user friendly to me.

Welcome to Flickr!
Have a look in sets for different colours.
Only have a estoril and monsoon tho.
That's my photo stream. I collected pics from Flickr and put them on mine so I could get a screensaver going but the photos aren't mine. Can't get a link to the original pics.

Changed my colour from estoril to monsoon added folding mirrors. Build week currently week 15
Only used flickr as Apple TV doesn't use photobucket.
I just notice less people choose Misano red... Isn't a bad color, is it?!
Just been told mines built and at the docks awaiting shipping
Will be coming into sheerness -
Anyone know the name of the boats that they use for sheerness - Grimsby certainly seems to have more coming in as well
Only takes 24 hours so unless stays at port for ages should be ok for 1st March
What was your build week?

Viking Constanza - it recently arrived in Emden
Rich
Build week 5 which was last week
dealer going to update me Thursday - just said it's been released for shipping which means it's at the port apparently
no idea of what boat but she did confirm sheerness would be the port
That's really good, stories like this make me feel like I'll get mine quicker than the dealers estimated 4-6 weeks after build. Mine will go Grimsby too, which could help from what I'm reading.
4-6 weeks! Your cars are barely travelling. What takes so long?
there's an 8-10 week turnaround for cars shipping to Australia.
