RS3 Build Tracker Spreadsheet

Fingers crossed for sure. I sold my S3 just over a week ago because I got 2 grand more for it than the dealer were offering - been driving around in a spare van from work since and it's horrendous - although I did take the worst spare van I could find because I figured it would make getting in my RS3 after a 15 month wait even sweeter - regretting it a bit now as I rattle and shake down the road, ha!
I've been in the same boat... been driving a 2005 banged up astra without power steering in anticipation for the rs3 for the same reasons lol!

Good Morning All,
Here we are again on the summary.
Congratulations to @WestyRS and @JONNY RED on picking up their RS3s.
The positive aspect of the summary is that we continue to pickup cars approx a couple a week and at the same time cars going into build one or two at a time following the colour batches with exclusive colours in the mix.
Waiting on Turbo Blue batch to start.
odd: Unable to fathom out why the Tango Red of @Terminator x is not fulfilled at all, while all orders for Tango Red, including later orders have been built.
Cars collected last week. Congratulations.

A three year wait for an RS3 is mental. I didn’t even think they’d keep making them after the FL comes out to be honest, I’d imagine that would be near the end of that run of cars? Madness.

i think i heard 2026 might be last year they make them and from 2027 all the new electric models come i am hoping i still get one

Thanks RS03. A little surreal that it's now just 4 days until pickup for me!

What's the first things you all do after picking up the car (other than putting the foot down a little of course :laughing:)? I've ruled out ppf for now due to the potential cost (unless someone tells me its an absolute must/no brainer) but am looking at getting a Ghost-II immobiliser. Keen to hear from anyone who has one of these, or if there are better alternatives on the market?

I also have a question re. keyless entry. I know there are those signal relay devices that thieves can use, but if you disable keyless entry does this not make those ineffective as then the car won't be listening for any signal? In my head that's how it would work but I could be wrong! Once I get an immobiliser then keyless entry will be staying on.

@Bensrs3, @jgs911, thanks and welcome.
@Darren jones , cheers updated.
I've disabled keyless entry, all that entails is the need to lock and unlock the car with the remote. There is a proximity sensor for the car keys inside, which if its too far away, will ask you to put the key near it to stop it complaining and so on.

Collecting my dayton grey CB SB at the weekend. Ordered November 2021.

Unsure if its missing any bits as i cant find the spec for a CB but i had thought it came with an electric closer for the boot and wireless charging. if so then both are missing.

Unfortunately it comes with neither.

@RS03??? Spoke to audi. They have confirmed the car has been built 2 days ago and that the car is on its way to the port to be shipped.

Let's hope it doesn't stay stuck at Emden for too long!

@nrs3 - thats a good welcomed update. Should have been built earlier, hopefully the backlog is clearing up faster.
@Grolli - Congratulations.

Had confirmation mine is in production this week.

Expecting mid-end June for collection but not sure how it's going to get here in 3 weeks so I imaging it will be end of June.

This myth might come true after all!

I've been worrying about my choice Sepang Blue but I've seen a few cars this week in Sepang and they look great thank god but need to be polished!

Really couldn’t make this S*** up. Audi UK are useless. After 18 months of waiting. My car has now been sat at the UK port since the 11th May. Hopefully due to be transported to the pdi centre on the 30th May but who knows.
Their excuse, because there are now more cars arriving they do not have the available transporters & logistics in place.

Reason l patched my order l ordered 2 month's before you and Audi told me last week it was in build, anyway mystic is a nice colour but almost identical to Audi"s Navarra blue

Mystic looked darker when I did my colour selection, Navarra Blue would have been an exclusive anyway so made more sense to go with Mystic

Navarra blue is not technically an exclusive paint as it's available on a lot of he Audi range. There was a member on here who had a Mystic blue S3 8v pre Navarra

best thing is to put certain folks on mute there’s another negative bell who also actually has this car and is very negative about it, quick browse reading the posts on this section and you will quickly find out who they are..

I’ll save him the hassle shall I ?

Keep your mouth shut with yer insults unless you actually own one, then you can pass judgement on it.

As the mods tirelessly keep pointing out, there’s the ignore function to use should you not like the fact I have a differing opinion to yourself about a car I’ve owned.


Oh wait what was it you said that time……. Chill out and take a chill pill…….

Negativity nah more like speaking the truth, A know it all? far from it,l am just realistic

Your “truth” however comes across pretty negative to most folk reading it.

It’s good to see I’m not the only one who finds you extremely negative especially when people come on here to share how happy they are to be finally getting their cars after a long wait.

Ah, glad you know who I was referring to! Don’t tell me what to do either. Funny how you were petty with others about installing 360 cam but a lot of folk already installed it and in the process of installing it..

what topped it off is when you posted pic of kit and hid the source of it but a member posted exact same pic which was either from Alibaba or DHGATE. ☕

Lol hid the source…….

It was picture of all the components required for a 360 deg camera from yes Ali baba crappa, but only that, a picture.

In what way was I petty ? Lol I even mentioned on a thread not to buy an AliEpress kit because it’s problematic in its quality.

Best place to buy the kit is Kufatec or if your not competent installing go to a retrofitter who is, and yes I was going to document the process at one point, however it’s not a straightforward one, special tools / procedures are required to complete.
