Tracker and App still not updated for me. Did someone at Audi advise you that the tracker would be up and running again today?

The app is broke because of all those prospective owners repeatedly stabbing their fingers on it, saying 'where's my car!!!"

Congratulations on your new S3
Just jumping across from the Golf R forums, are you able to confirm which tax band the DVLA used for your new WLTP 300PS S3?
And very interested in hearing any exhaust clips at some point
congrats again
I mostly tweet at Audi UK for fun nowadays
Latest exchange:
Me: Almost 6 months not a single update from dealer
*they ask for my order number which I finally have*
Their response (to the letter): Your vehicle has gone into production.
In other news, I’m finally retiring the 2001 C Class the A4 should’ve replaced months ago. It’s just too unsafe to drive. Lurches on start, breaks down occasionally if you reverse when it’s cold (or on an incline) and while it does produce something akin to heat through its ancient A/C system, I’m pretty sure the fumes are toxic. The family has the other car which is fine, I’ll just stick to trains or cabs until my car finally arrives.

Afraid not. The dealer said £205 per year but was not 100%
From inside the cabin I must admit that the exhaust is very muted. Of course the engine is brand new and it will liven up after some miles. Only driven 60 miles so far but once it’s light and dry I’ll get some footage.

Is that a quiz question ? If so = Co2 is carbon dioxide,,,,,,,,,,,, but why has that affected the car tax ? Has annual VED gone up since April 2018 ?
Annual rate
The annual flat rate is £140. There’s a £10 discount for alternatively fuelled vehicles (hybrids and PHEVs), so their owners pay £130 a year.
Cars that cost £40,000 or more (after options) are subject to a further £310 annual supplement that runs for five years. This kicks in after the first-year CO2-based charge, so you’ll pay the supplement from years two to six of the car’s life. This means you’ll pay £450 a year, for five years, if you car tips the £40,000 barrier. After that, annual road tax reverts back to the £140 a year (£130 for hybrids) charge.
So your point is what ? I asked if the VED rate has gone up since April 2018. My May 2018 S3 was £140 per year so unless there has been a mid year increase surely the car tax will be £140 per year, or am I missing something.
That’s ridiculously bad. Drivers are taxed through the roof. £40k is so arbitrary. So glad I only pay £20 for my 190ps diesel n

40K is considered the luxury car market, so "everyone" paying that can obviously afford the extra £310 tax per year. Certainly from my point of view I don't agree with it, but someone on minimum wage, who could maybe afford a 20 year old Vauxhall Corsa would probably agree and say it was well justified...
Should be taxed on emissions not price of the car. Say for eg electric cars where you pay 0? There will also be those who will buy it second hand and would will pay that fee until it drops to the normal ved rate.

Probably asking for too much but would be nice to have been told .
I have screenshot my lease company to let them know
Wow. You hung in there. What did you pay on your lease whilst waiting. Will make it all the more sweeter getting her either late dec early jan.
yeah, like many others. I got a great deal though so didn't want to cancel.
Havent paid a penny yet, pay 10 days after delivery apparently. I haven't had a car since August either, so it's been a nightmare sharing the missus's :/
cannot wait to get it now, but bet it's still mid Jan even from here! :/
I’m surprised the lease company didn’t let you hold on to (old) the car. That’s what I meant by paying the lease. True re the deals and at least you were locked in. Some nice facelift features were included especially bigger rims and folding mirrors if it’s a b9 A4. Depending on the trim.
yeah I had the 19 rotors already included and the tech pack, but the folding mirrors and facelift is a bonus.
I didn't have a lease before, was my own car, and it had some faults so I had to get rid, was going to get a little run around but I kept clinging on to hope of getting the a4 sooner, I was wrong ha!
