Just to say hi and looking for a bit advice. I ordered my Black edition plus in Sepang blue 4 weeks ago and was given a build week of 24th August. I then had an e-mail from the dealer saying the build had been pulled forward 1 week to the 17th August, which I was very happy about. Ive been on the tracker everyday and it used to have the message 'Your A5 coupe will begin production on the 24th August' but today when I checked its now moved on to 'Your A5 coupe is coming together' and 'Your A5 coupe has joined the production line'. I spoke with the dealer about this and he said the build week has actually moved back to the 24th August?

I'm just wondering if anyone else has had the same kind of experience and what the outcome was. The wait is killing me lol
 
Hi, same a you my build week was this week 32 but on Wednesday Build week 30 changed to production line
then moved to panel shop Tuesday last week yesterday went from QC to on its way, now on a boat heading to Grimsby
before the end of my original build week happy days

I got my S5 before the tracker was available, so whilst my wait was every bit as frustrating I didn't have any extra information to fret about. It seems to me that the tracker simply provides more detail about Audi's imprecise system so I'm not sure its really worth it.

I'm also new and waiting on my S5...also in Sepang Blue, great colour choice if I do say so myself!! :grinning:

I had a somewhat similar scenario to this where I was initially told the delivery would be mid September but then out of the blue got a call last week saying my car was in the UK...woo hoo, so I'm booked in next week to go and pick it up.

Slightly nervous and very excited!!

Sepang blue is a stunning colour, and an S5 wow! Checked the tracker today and mine is now 'in transit' The city of Rome vehicle carrier left Emden today heading for the Port of Tyne so fingers crossed my car is on that boat

Well it wasn't on that boat lol. Does anyone have any idea when the next boat from Emden to Tyne is due, I've checked marine traffic, port of Tyne expected arrivals and vessel finder, but unless im reading it wrong it doesn't look like there is a sailing anytime soon and the schedule only goes upto the 5th Sept!
 
Everyday?? really? I just thought there were a couple of sailings a week at most!
