    Rear ended.

    Sorry to hear this. I've had something similar happen to me. As it's their insurance paying for it, I called up Amersham Audi, dropped it off there the next day and they gave me a loan car immediately. They deal with a company called Accident Exchange, all genuine Audi parts. Couldn't fault them.

    Audi approved

    I recently sold my S3 through Anthony at Mantis Cars near Colchester. Thanks for the recommendation @DrEskimo Cannot fault the service there, I’d highly recommend them. As it was only 14 months old on a PCP I knew I would lose money but even with the fee I gave him to sell it on my behalf I only...

    Facelift More Bad News... S3’s Got To Go!

    Sorry to hear this. To reduce the amount of negative equity I would recommend giving the car to a garage on a sale or return basis. This is what I've done with my S3. You still own the car while it is up for sale and pay off the finance when it sells (or before depending on your circumstances)...

    Facelift S3 Sale & Return?

    I've been into Watford and they don't do Sale & Return, Amersham Audi didn't want to know - had too much stock apparently. I'll give some of the independents a go.

    Facelift S3 Sale & Return?

    Thanks @DrEskimo I've driven past Kings Road Garage a few times and they have an S3 at the moment which they've had for a while. I'll pop in there as its nearby to see if they're interested. I'll also give Tootle a go. My local Audi dealer were offering next to nothing, the mark up they make is...

    Facelift S3 Sale & Return?

    Hi guys, Due to moving abroad with my job in the new year I sadly have to get rid of my year old FL S3 (spec in signature). As it's on a PCP I'm clearly in negative equity at the moment so I want to minimise this by giving it to an independent or Audi dealer who can sell it on my behalf and...

    Go into the dealer and see what new S3's they have in stock ready for immediate delivery?

    yourAudi - Track New Car Order

    I would say August is unlikely if you've ordered a Q5. It's built in a new factory in Mexico and takes a month from leaving Mexico to arriving in Germany. Then the usual wait (around a month) to get to the UK. My Dad ordered one in November and was due for June delivery, however he got fed up...

    Facelift 2.0 TDI (150PS)

    Worth bearing in mind that if you're getting your car on a PCP the APR is much higher on a used / pre reg car than new. It's worth seeing if your dealer has any cars already built in their system waiting to be registered and sold.

    yourAudi - Track New Car Order

    For those worried about the tax increase and cars not arriving on time..... have you spoken to your dealers to see what stock cars they have? My Dad had a Q5 on factory order for May delivery. Went into the dealer over the weekend and they had a stock Q5 available with exactly the spec he...

    yourAudi - Track New Car Order

    You think the time to get from QC to the dealers is bad for the A3/S3..... My Dad has a new Q5 on order which is now in QC... Audi CS have told him it will be another 3 MONTHS before it is due in the UK as it's being built in Mexico. He ordered at the end of November!

    Do you have to use Admiral? I have my S3 insured with Direct Line - very reasonable and they had the exact make / model of the car

    yourAudi - Track New Car Order

    Fingers crossed. I'm abroad on business for the next 2 weeks with a day in the UK next Saturday so I'm not too bothered when I pick it up but would be nice to know it's at least sat at my dealer waiting for me!
