Hello,

I ordered the A3 last Weds, finance accepted on the friday.. So presuming they (main dealer) ordered the car from Audi either on Friday or yesterday - when would I expect to be able to find out the build week...? i.e. when does Audi tell the dealer?

Ordered mine on 7th January - still waiting! - The dealer ordered a 3-door instead of the 5-door I wanted - they realised their mistake a couple of hours after telling me it had arrived back in March. So I patiently waited another 8 weeks - The lack of information was astonishing in the meantime so I rang Audi Customer Service this week and they asked me for the Commission number and told me it had finished manufacture on 18th April - still waiting - latest arrival date here is Thursday - !

My car goes into build next week, and I think the delivery estimate is the 22nd May.

Fingers crossed, I really dont think I can wait much longer. smile.gif

Both my TT's took three weeks from build week until I took delivery so if it is similar on the A3 your calculations should be about right.

Hey,

My build week was 17 (last week in April) and i had a call on Tuesday(2nd May) saying that it had completed build and would be shipping within the next 7 days and i may be able to pick it up the weekend of 13th May. All fingers are crossed wink.gif

I almost went for black myself but the lease on mine would have actually have cost more with a solid colour than with a metallic. shocked.gif

I take it you didn't get too good a discount then. Its one of the reasons having a company car can make things so much easier.

That and the gouge in the front of the car and the new scratch on wheel arch aren't my issues to fix. Oh and neither were my fault I hassen to add. tongue.gif

Similar to mine but mines just a Sport as the S-Line wasn't out when I got mine. Think it was one of the first 2.0T Sportbacks in the country.

Why sad on the TT going ? I think your about to be suprised by your new arrival. 169144-ok.gif

I hope so, TT has been a great car and our only one so we needed something more practical (the sportback) as well as a second car, so I have a deposit down on a Mark II TT smile.gif

Cool.. Have to say I have reservations about the list price of the TTs. From what I have seen they are getting a bit too expensive for and Audi. A 3.2 is almost in Boxter teritory and the standard spec is much lower than the old model.

Looks ok on paper until you come to sell it and don't get any of the value back in the inevitable extras that you add on. Will have to see how it holds up.

Yes but once you spec up an S you are over the £40K mark a 3.2 with most stuff (non sat nav) will cost about £34K.

I agree about the comparison with spec the press are saying it's only a small increase on the Mark 1 but Xenons alone are £1K and were standard on the old version... so like for like it is a considerable price increase.
