Got the car delivered mid day today. What a day for
it as well, beautiful sun for once.
My initial thoughts on the car:
Very happy with it overall. Absolutely LOVE how quiet the car is, happy I did not spec the acoustic glass as the vast majority of noise I can hear is tyre patter (but still better than most cars), so not sure how much the acoustic glass would have added anyway. It really is a serene place to be. The 1.4 engine is perfectly adequate, and I say that having come from a car with 280HP. When just driving normally the car feels perfectly nippy and responsive, especially at town speeds between 0 to 40mph. I only found it obviously lacking grunt compared to my 280HP car when I gave it a bit of gas above 60mph. But really, it's fine, and much better than I thought it would be. It certainly does not feel like a small little engine that is struggling. The B&O speakers are nice, CarPlay is great, the digital dash is awesome. The quality of the car is just 10/10, everything feels really well made.
My only real minor complaints are that I would like a faster rack, having come from a hot hatch I do find myself turning the wheel a lot more especially at low speed maneuvers. It's not a big deal though, just something to get used to. The suspension is also quite firm, I would not say it is bad or in any way back breaking, but it is undeniably firm. I'm okay with it, at least it handles nicely and does not have any body roll. It still feels like a good high quality suspension even if it is a tad firm. I also do notice that pulling off is a bit weird, not sure if it's the 7 speed s-tronic or the engine. It feels like you give it some gas, the revs build for a second, and then it suddenly lurches forward a bit almost asif you lifted the clutch too quickly on a manual. Might just be the lack of low RPM power ? it's not bad, just my old car was smoother on pull off. But I am already getting used to it and getting smoother, so perhaps I have a heavy foot
Anyway here are some photos and a video. We've all seen the car 101 times now in all manner of spec, but I know you all enjoy seeing pics anyway.
Nice, now protect it with a ceramic coating...Gave it a clean yesterday. First time I’ve used a clay bar. What a difference! So smooth. All products from the Bilt Hamber deluxe kit. Snow foam, shampoo, wheel cleaner, korrosol, clay, diluted QD, double speed wax. Love it.

After a long, long wait she finally arrived. I drove straight from dealer to auto shop and installed Miltek Non Res Exhaust, KW HAS Kit and a set of BC Forged Wheels. From there, drove straight to detailer for a ceramic coat application and removal of V6 badges on the fenders and the rear S4 badge.

I don't think so, I ordered a 2.0 TFSI 190 on 23rd March and getting the car delivered this Friday. I *think* there might be a shortage of 1.4 TFSI 150 engines though due to the sheer popularity of them.Surprised you got a tfsi 190 as they were in short supply a few months ago. Or that’s what I read at least.
Looks fab ......I’m not bias though!Picked mine up today ordered in feb what a car tech pack comfort pack 2.0 tfsi 190 black edition daytona grey.
