Have none of you thought about getting the s-line badge for the grill?
I think it should cost no more than £12 for the badge and 80p each for the clipsany ideas on dealer prices for the grill badge?
First Post - First Audi...

Cheers!!

Your car is v smart - looks like the alloys were matched to the Monza colour and the interior looks crisp. Did you go for intreior extras like light pack etc? Have you seen another same colour monza A3 BE on the road yet?
I haven't seen another like mine yet, no. At the time i purchased there was one other indentical model, in Newcastle - however it had more miles and cost £1500 more?!
I don't have the lighting pack, but apart from that its fairly loaded with Auto lights and Auto wipers on top of the all the extras that come as aprt of the BE package. The wheels are perfect - although i just thought the graphite grey was the standard BE wheel - but someone else is saying that a Black Black Edition has Black wheels? never noticed that
I lucked out big time as the car was pre registered and i got it for a good price.
Oh well, maybe in 2011...
I must say that the wheels on the current Black Edition are the only disappointment to me. I have the 08 version, which in North America is called the Titanium package. (don't ask me, Audi up here is a bit different. Probably since we keep getting shafted and not getting any of the fun stuff from Germany. I.e. we still can't get the S3 out here, or the RS6 for that matter.)
Ah and your car looks Awesome! I have the white S-Line 09 which I love ... but your photo and car look veeeerrry nice!I must say that the wheels on the current Black Edition are the only disappointment to me. I have the 08 version, which in North America is called the Titanium package.
Some random pics of my BE......
Must say thats a amazing looking A3! Do you have any more photo's?

Cheers matey...like my cars fairly standard so will prob leave as is...although I'm tempted by a Custom Code remap !Car looks great! Thats my favourite photo! How you finding it any other plans? The s-line badge looks good on the front grill!
Lol...well spotted...he's a good lad but man them spokes are a bark to clean !The fella over the road with the silver SB looks jealous......but he has BBS!
THANKS! Just posted some in the pic thread up top. Just got the camera a few months a go so I'm a bit trigger happy with it. Meaning I have LOTS of photos... I've since covered the gray plastic on the rear valance with black vinyl... looks really good if you don't mind the fact that I mangled the vinyl install.

I'll have a look thanks. Haha trigger happy! Thats a cheap mod i do like the rear valance in black! Does look much better i think. Vinyl always good for things and its cheap! Do you have any plans for the car?
Hello,Hi All,
New on here, first post
I am about to order (tomorrow) a BE, currently have a 140 TDI Sline, i am now going for a new 170 DSG, i used to have DSG on a Golf GTI and think its the best thing since sliced bread.
I have a couple of questions, my dealer said the factory is shut during august, so if i order now really it wont start being processed until start of sept, is this correct ?, if so i guess i am looking at a November delivery ?, seems like a long time !
Also i think i am going for Silver, was going white but not made keen on cleaning the outside of cars, the inside i keep imaculate, but hate cleaning the outside ! lol, so for me white would look nice once a month !. My current car is black, so its either silver or red ?
I have seen a car in the dealer with silver sticthing on the seats, looks nice, anyone else had this ?, also i was not mad keen on the piano black inlays, someone on this thread said you can specify the brushed ally version ? Thoughts please guys
Does anyone know if the factory does actuall close in August ?
Thanks
Hi I'm new to this but keep reading about Black Editions and thought it was time to for people to see a red one.
That looks ace mate, really does !
I have gone for a black SBack, the dealer told me they are building SBacks earlier than 3 door so will hopefully get it October/November. Problem is now my current A3 will need a service before i px it !, bummer, that will feel like wasted money thats for sure !.
