Hi Andy, welcome to audi-sport.net. Nice spec on the car. Hope you enjoy the forum. x

Looks good to me.
Anything missing or you don't need. Only you really know what you need or don't

Not sure about the phone box though. If the cars got Bluetooth then that should be enough. My last few cars have had Bluetooth and I've never felt the need for anything else to aid the signal. There may be some here who know better.

Just a few suggestions;

If you can live without sat nav and box, the savings can be passed on to:

1. Adaptive headlights with Xenon Plus headlights
This is a nice feature on country roads

2. Advanced key
Push start is a nice feature

3. Interior lighting package
Makes the cabin much more visually pleasing

4. Reversible load floor mat
Just because.

5. Door mirrors – auto-dimming on the driver's side, electrically adjustable,
folding and heated
Good for when driving and fitting in tight spaces.

6. Ext mono.pur interior finish
Visually pleasing.

7. Hill hold assist
A valuable option.

I was against sat nav because it doesn't include speed cameras.

Make sure you get a good discount, at least 8% imo.

You can also upgrade to SD sat nav at any time.

 

[Andyh1873]

I thought the led internal lighting was included in the comfort pack. Decent discount has been negotiated, just need to confirm must haves!

Phone box, i think I can delete, seems pointless.

 

[Simonb1975]

whats your discount ?

 

[Andyh1873]

Used carwow.com to spec up, got several offers, Coventry Audi were far the best quote, but my local dealer has agreed to price match.

 

[A3_Rider]

Yeah Cov Audi are giving great deals but I imagine they are busy as!! So your local may be best.

Light package is not in comfort package.

Is there not a contradiction in you spec?
Super sports seats, but alcantara trim.

I don't think the phone box is worth it unless of course your phone reception is so bad it need the roof aerial.

Pity about the colour, other than that looks like a great spec..................
