A3 3 door discontinued?

[Royleblue]

On the Audi configurator it states that the A3 3 door is subject to availability. On the configurator app it doesn’t even show as an option. Is this temporary or are the discontinuing the 3 door?

Yep, the a3 3 door is being discontinued. The info was released in august. Here is the thread I posted in the news section:

One article I read said 80% of all A3's sold were the five door sportback, another said they sell "ten times more 5 door than 3 door".........

I think i've read something similar for the VW Polo & Golf which I think I've read the 3 door versions of those are being scrapped as well....

Glad I got mine when I did then.

Yep. I ordered mine in September and they confirmed then that it was probably my last chance to get a 3 door.

You both will be driving something which is slightly more exclusive :)
