RS3 Configuration (let's see what you've got then)

Check the configurator now, you can spec a Saloon Carbon in black (or even exclusive) colours now, both options remove the contrast roof.




I hope this post post didn't trigger anyone to cry off to mommy to come slap my wrist?

Ah so they are tweaking the configurator then

According to the PDF, the car ships with Bridgestone Potenza Sports or Pirelli PZEROs.

Not a fan of either but will take the Pirelli’s over the Bridgestones ... so I’ll probably get Bridgestones :tearsofjoy:

Welcome back!
Did you get your order in?
 
I know some people really don't like them I've specced mine with them
I agree, I've spec'd rails for carting our mountain bikes about but would still spec them if I didn't have plans to use them, they just add something to the proportions of the car that suit my eye.

I agree. I would have spec them if I was not having a Saloon!

Yes I did, have a factory accepted order placed 24/08 for Saloon Carbon, C+S and RS Dynamic pack, 13.5% discounted through MSG. Comes in just a little over a standard c+s.
Checked earlier today, no BW yet.

Cool! I ordered 11/08, possibly one of the first configured orders (at least thro MSG)
I checked last week - No info except to say its going to be a while before we hear any more! :frown new:
Don't know if you've seen, the Saloon discounts have reduced massively? (nearly 1/2 what they were)

Yes was told that the initial discounts were quoted incorrect but being honoured to all 25 rs3 orders through them at the time, got in just in time.

Thought one of the main reasons you “pulled the plug” was because you couldn’t get black saloon. Well you can now. So **** off to the dealer and order

I wish I was brave enough to change (Sportback Vorsprung) from Tango red to Kyalami green, There used to be a lad by us with the similar green on a Focus RS, it looked good with the black

Nah tango red will be bold enough. Red with black touches looks really good so you’ve chosen well in my view.

Could anyone else please check there summary sheet and see if they have a £550 delivery fee on it. I questioned my dealer on it and he said that’s not the delivery price to me, that’s part of the ROTR price as that’s the delivery from Germany to them?

Mine says £550 OTR charges

From Audi configurator.
“1 Recommended On-The-Road (OTR) retail prices include: delivery charge, half a tank of fuel, number plates, first registration fee at £55.00 and Vehicle Excise Duty.” VED = £1345

Edit its £550 + VAT OTR = £660 then add £55 first reg fee = £715 total (ex VED)

Yep it’s on mine. £550 plus vat. Had similar for previous new orders albeit for vw.

Lol.

There’s a difference between not wanting it and whether or not it will be popular with others… not everyone is an attention seeker

I like it just, don’t want it for my car

I’m liking how many exclusive colour orders there are. wonder what exclusive option they’ve gone for…
