RS3 Build Tracker Spreadsheet

Same as me. Lets hope we are both on the ship that's arriving at Sheerness at 6pm today ! Think I may be in for a much longer wait as your car was finished about 3 weeks before mine.
I think Shiggy was BW10 and you were BW12? I am also BW12. Last I heard just over a week ago was that the car was in transport from factory to port.
I was told around 4-6 weeks from build to dealers/delivery. Let's hope we are all on the Elbe but I'll not be holding too much hope!
Think that will probably be the case. Might need to get to Emden and slip the guys at the port a few quid to bump me up the queue!!
I contacted my dealer for an update in hopes my build might have come forward following other members builds moving around, but I am still looking at November 23 for delivery (prompting me to look at alternative options, as I wasn't expecting to be in my current car for so long...)
very odd.
Audi email saying the car is now on the boat for transport.
Dealer called just after email from Audi recieved to say the car is now in the UK and approx 2 weeks away from handover..

I am of the opinion that the emails sent by Audi are probably about a week behind as the input of details is probably uploaded in batches and not in real time. There have been some vessels over the past week or so at Sheerness from Emden so you were probably on one of them. Not long to wait now !!
I had the ‘it’s at the dealers’ a week after I’d taken delivery, so you maybe surprised. I also asked my dealer when it left Emdem And tracked the boat/ ship and saw it land two days before the ‘its in the UK’ email. The system is a bit behind.Result
Yes, it gives you the hope that the car will be here a bit sooner that anticipated !!
same with my VS, been at Emden since the 6th. Been lots of boats going to Newcastle, but it hasn’t been on there.
my VS has also been at Emden since the 6th …. still waiting to come to the port of Tyne.
Lol nope I think at this point people (like my self) would end up anticipating it earlier and kill our selves with impatience lol
Apologies if it's really obvious but I'm color blind.
What color is that? Look amazing!
Good Morning All,

Couple of Vorsprung for @Apache007, @WestyRS and may be @DarrenFFC's are stuck at Emden, stinks of awaiting final parts at the port before it can be fitted and shipped. (we witnessed this in 2021, hope its not a repeat of it, again)

Thanks Rs03, as an update my dealer confirmed mine in transit from factory to port last Wednesday 
Hi @RS03???, your weekly update must be like writing War and Peace at the moment !!! Good to see more cars coming through and thanks for keeping everyone updated. Still no further news on mine but there was a ship that left Emden and docked at Sheerness yesterday evening so hoping my car may have been on this and is not stuck at the port awaiting parts.
The only option I added was side airbags for the rear so it would be interesting to know whether the others waiting at port ordered these too or if there is a delay on vorsprungs due to the extra kit on them. That said @TooThick's vorsprung was on the same production run as me and has now arrived in the UK so perhaps shipment is allocated to a number of slots for each dealer per vessel, so the more orders (on all models) they have waiting at port, the longer the wait.
That said, I do not want my car sitting at port for 6 weeks or more as it cannot be good for it with the salt breeze in uncovered compounds.
Thanks, not too bad as its a consolidation of updates from members, summarised.
I would also be concerned if it sits near the sea for too long for parts, instead, just waiting for the slot on the ship. Hope they shifting soon.
I have the side airbags on my carbon so hopefully yours is not waiting for any parts and will be on the UK soon
I would suspect that your car is complete and they just haven’t found room for it on a ship yet. It will be along shortly! Good luck and the wait is worth it.
Sorry for the confusion, but mine is not in build. I have an unconfirmed build week 20. I do indeed wish that it was though.
Look my dealer has my old RS3 up for nearly 40k !
Only paid 49k for it 5.5yrs ago.
A great car, in excellent condition 28k miles, and a great noise.
Interesting to see how long it hangs around for.

Just had a call from my dealer confirming my car has been shipped (think it is arriving at port either today or tomorrow as there are two ships due in to Sheerness one today an one tomorrow). Dealer then advised that it will be a further week once landed before it is received at the dealers. So hopefully will arrange collection w/c 24th April
I note that you received your final checks email on 25th March. I received mine on 29th March.Just had a call from my dealer confirming my car has been shipped (think it is arriving at port either today or tomorrow as there are two ships due in to Sheerness one today an one tomorrow).

Therefore, hopefully my ship will be sailing in a few days!
Fingers crossed. Hopefully those waiting at Emden going to Sheerness will all get on as that will be 4 ships in the last 3 weeks so hopefully clearing the backlog. Give your dealer a call to find out.

Same build week as me so hope I am on that boat!!
Fingers crossed. Give your dealer a shout as they will be able to check the factory portal.
@jgs911 & @JONNY RED I have received the official email from Audi UK today confirming my car is on the ship so hopefully you have got the same email and yours was on the same ship
Nope and email reply from my dealer says he's out of the office until Monday@jgs911 & @JONNY RED I have received the official email from Audi UK today confirming my car is on the ship so hopefully you have got the same email and yours was on the same ship
Good Morning All,
Members cars still continue to trickle through to dealers. About 8 (quite a lot) at the moment either stuck at Emden or better still on the boat.
From my guesstimate, the data we have is approx 10-20% of the total for UK orders.
Is it the same for RS3 orders globally. Would be informative to be aware.
Cars almost at Dealers to be Picked up are:
Vorsprung @Lotus4 - Sb-DaG car due @Dealers
Vorsprung @TooThick - Sl-TuB - Now in Transit
