Status 40!!!!!!! Jumped straight from 38 to 40 overnight.
Two boats arrived in the UK yesterday, one at Grimsby and the other at Sheerness. My car is going to Audi Cambridge , so assuming via Sheerness as it is geographically closer?
Wow, very pleased for you. Please keep me updated on the duration of the car being ready for you to take ownership.
Mine is still parked at the Port of exit and have been asked to come back to Customer Service on Friday on the update. May be there is a schedule that need to be maintained, as mine started a week early, so held back etc.. Sure there is some fuzzy logic being applied.
Finally, Status 40. 5 days on the ship!
Still at the port, Transport scheduled for Delivery coming Friday, then 4 to 5 days prep, so last Friday in March to take ownership and drive. Fingers crossed.
Collected yesterday and very, very happy. Great service from Matt at Cambridge Audi. Few observations/ thoughts:
1. I went for the non sport version in Nardo, but with every option bar the assistance pack. I couldn’t justify to myself the additional sport cost when all I wanted was the black pack, particularly as there was no Audi deposit contribution available for the sport variant. Not interested in the SS seats for comfort reasons, nor bothered by the sun roof.
Was geared up to have a front and window surround wrap done, but having seen the car I am more than content with the look, and won’t be bothering with a wrap.
2. When I asked the question, Matt was “90 percent sure” 2020 RS3s with keyless entry have the new fobs with motion sensors in, ie the key goes to sleep after a period of time of no motion. This should help mitigate against relay type theft. Audi Germany hasn’t yet confirmed this though, but the RSQ3 which does have the motion sensor fobs is built on the same production line, and Audi use common parts on that line. As such, strong likelihood Matt’s assertion is accurate.
3. Never owned or been close to a PFL car so don’t have a baseline for any comparison with mine, but I am very happy with the exhaust noise. May be tempted by a valve controller, but, like the wrap, much less concerned about it now.
4. Car was registered yesterday, and is now showing on DVLA databases. Am hoping the same will be quickly true for the insurance quotation databases. Have Audi five day driveway insurance in place, but their year quote was quite a bit higher than the comparison sites. Can’t actually take out the cheapest policy through Saga without a verifiable registration though. (Saga- ok I’m officially old! Well a couple of years past fifty).
5. Matrix lights are brilliant.
I hope everything will settle down soon and everything will go back to normal. I’m sure yours will be first off the lot when they reopen.West London Audi is shutting the doors at 7 tonight, until further notice.
Car is waiting to be prepped, monies paid.. Dont know when at the moment.. Serious bad luck, this COVID-19 across the globe.
