Merlot Posted May 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 No, just cancelled mine. Got the impression that its well sold till late 06 (ie the first batch) but not sure after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merlot Posted May 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 I once sold a Merc for a profit - now that was strange. As for the Q7, there is already an internet broker doing £2.5k off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon magnifique Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 I managed to sell a mk 1 Cavalier for a profit once... Re the Q7, the only thing I'm reasonably sure of is that I don't like it. As to how well it'll sell, and what depreciation will be like, I have absolutely no idea. It could well be better than the X5 and ML but it has a hell of alot of ground to catch up, especially with the RR Sport muscling in on the market too.

Golfer Posted May 16, 2006 Report Share Posted May 16, 2006 I got the new price list and I can't understand it at all!! Options list confusing, FFS can't audi get the basic price list easy to understand . I would NOT buy one of these this year, see how the RV goes first.

Chris_B Posted May 16, 2006 Report Share Posted May 16, 2006 [ QUOTE ] How strong is the order book for this really? [/ QUOTE ] Well, I was told that if I wanted one, it would probably not arrive until early '07 if ordered in April this year. However, that might have been a ploy to get me to order an S8...

kam Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 I think there are loads of `cancelled` orders out there my local dealer had two- I dont think its selling that well cause it`s just too big... really a vehicle for the american market made big cause the ML/Q5/GL are getting bigger, ours will be the Q5. Unless of course u need the 7 seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashleyadam Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 Audi have over 31 demo's for sale on there site. I have nothing to say about Q7 - alright three words "load of rubbish" - Only seen 2 on the road both woman drivers! No offence to anyone personally I would be happy to be proven wrong.

kam Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 Does any one own one ...pls tell us why u bought it and what u think of it without the hype.. I was seriously interested until I saw one... great car but too big and I thought the interior was not up the Audi standard.... not as nice as my A3 S-Line. Land Rover sport much more special inside... however ordered a Merc CLS... what do I know!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] Yes, I get the impression there's a lot of those orders that have been cancelled. The size might put some off, as might the recent media hoo-hah about "Gas guzzling urban 4x4s". It would be interesting to see how Range Rover and the like have faired recently; I know Range Rover V8 Vogue residuals are looking pretty shocking at the moment. I nearly bought a Q7, I really liked it having driven one on tarmac and desert sand, but it needs the 4.2 TDI engine because if you're going to be vilified by the public for driving your huge gas guzzler, you might as well have the performance to match! Either that, or Audi need to get the hybrid into production and hype it a lot as a hybrid, so that eco-warriors stop egging or keying them.

J_C Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 Swindon Audi seem to have sold a few. Just recently I've seen a couple of Range Rovers and a Lexus RX there, taken in p/x presumably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tizzy Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 Lincoln Audi seem to be collecting them, not many on road round here, except one of my neighbours, who seems to have bought a silver one to complement his RS6 & Allroad. Not a pretty car though (the Q7 that is) especially in silver! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
