Ok so I've specced up my ideal S3 3 door hatch and I've been sitting on the fence with colour for about 2 weeks now.
I've had a range of colours in the past, from Lava grey, to Carbon black (BMW) to Misano red A4, now a Palace Blue TT and I want a dark colour (not black). I'm a bit of a detailing geek so I don't mind maintaining a dark coloured paint.
I went to York audi on Saturday (pretty awesome new building actually) and had my heart set on Merlin Purple, until I saw Dark Red Mica in the showroom. Now I'm torn:
Merlin:
Dark Red Mica
I would have gone for Mugello blue as it's my all time fave Audi colour, however if it's going to be a £2k option then I'd rather have something truly unique, too many blue cars around IMHO.
Here's my full spec:
S-Tronic
Interior
Material: Fine Nappa leather with S3 embossing on the front seats Seats: Lunar silver
Dashboard: Black
Carpet: Black
Headliner: Black
PXA Adaptive headlights with Xenon Plus headlights
9VS Bang & Olufsen sound system
8T2 Cruise control
6XE Door mirrors – electrically adjustable, folding and heated
7P1 Electrically adjustable lumbar support
7HE Extended mono.pur interior finish
UH2 Hold assist
5MY Inlays, 3D design 'black'
QQ4 Interior lighting package
PU8 Light and rain sensor package
3FB Panoramic glass sunroof
VW1 Privacy glass
7X1 Rear parking system
WB4 Technology package with Mobile telephone preparation - High with Audi Connect
Any feedback welcome, if I've missed anything crucial.
