[hmy7k]

What engine and options you going for?

 

[johnh8picc]

Thanks Sandra, it will have around £12000 of extras, but no self park , but I'm sure I'll manage

is that the current delivery timescale?

What engine and options you going for?

190 Tdi, heated windscreen, powered/heated seats x4, virtual dash, folding mirrors, panoramic roof adaptive cruise, road sign sensing, mostly all except self parking and the other parking bundle.

 

[johnh8picc]

Also Quattro 19in wheels , mmi high, matrix lights/washers,

 

[johnh8picc]

Sorry also, mines got a slight delay due to the heated screen availability, so it's around then for delivery.

 

[Sandra]

@johnh8picc That's a nice spec, what colour did you go for ? x

 

[johnh8picc]

Tango red with privacy back windows, magnesium coloured diamond cut 19 in rims

 

[hmy7k]

Well you haven't missed much off your spec list, would like to see one in Tango as I am keen to avoid grey/silver/white colours.

Matrix lights, virtual cockpit, B&O, and ACC are on my list at the moment.

I will definitely be giving the parking assist a miss, I much prefer to park myself.

 

[johnh8picc]

The b&o is in mine as part of the comfort pack. I'll post some pics when the day arrives

 

[johnh8picc]

Check out utube There's a red avant same spec as mine nearly

 

[cuke2u]

Is this tango?

 

[johnh8picc]

Yes, it looks like it. The only other red in the options list I've seen, is more of a burgundy.

 

[hmy7k]

You have to be a bit careful with colours there are quite a few pictures of the new A4 in a light metallic blue which I rather like but its not an available colour.

I would like to see them in the flesh before I ordered.
Pretty sure Tango Red is a colour on the new TT.

 

[cuke2u]

Yes, it looks like it. The only other red in the options list I've seen, is more of a burgundy.

Then your car will look lovely, I really wish that they did the A3 in that as well...

Yes Tango is available on the new TT...

Audi have informed me that the date for my build is week 13. Getting nearer to the big day. No heated screen though as its not available yet. A4,avant, auto, tango red, s line, 2.0 litre diesel Quattro, sound & comfort , tech, light & vision, tour, parking assistance advance, privacy glass, tow bar, piano black inlays, flat bottom steering wheel, heated front & rear seats, leather/ alcantara, 18in wheels ( to keep tax to £30 ) panoramic roof. Probably forgot something. Will upload pics on the day

 

[ScottishA4B9]

Tax is still £30 with the 19's btw

 

[johnh8picc]

On 18's it's 120g's, on 19's it took it to 123g's As 120 is the limit for £30 tax, 123 put it into the £110 tax bracket as far as I'm aware.

 

[scottoliver252]

I was getting worried!

 

[ScottishA4B9]

For the manual it's 113 on the 18's and 118 on the 19's so it's within the £30 tax bracket. That's the official fuel figures from Audi.

 

[ScottishA4B9]

Actually I just realised that's for the Saloon. The 19's on the Avant push it to 121, so your right!

 

[johnh8picc]

Thanks for your help anyway, we're all learning and it's helpful to discuss cheers

 

[johnh8picc]

She's at the docks, good things come to those who wait lol

 

[ScottishA4B9]

Looks great! loving those wheels.

 

[johnh8picc]

I chose 18in wheels to keep the road tax to £30, 19's would have been £110

And save a few bob. I have 19s on my B8, cheapest quality tyre I can find is £140 whereas my wife's 18s are £80 each. A big saving when you find yourself buying four.

 

[A4B9]

What happens with tax if you buy the car with 18's and then put on 19's later on down the line?

 

[Spooky]

Funnily enough I wondered that as well

 

[ScottishA4B9]

Nothing. It goes on what spec the car was ordered with and initially registered with the DVLA with.

My B8 came with 18" wheels and I put 19" Rotors on. My tax didn't change.

By the way, I've ordered a 190 TDi saloon with the 19" wheels and tax is still £30, so no change.

 

[johnh8picc]

Mines an avant , saloons are different due to the drag coefficient.
