Hi all Well had my Audi A3 edition 1 1.5 dsg for two and a half months now and I’m well chuffed, fuel is getting better and better each week, about 36 - 38 mpg around town, only 1300 miles on the clock at the moment, so expecting it to get a little better, but with the cold winter days & nights coming maybe won’t show in extra miles per gallon. Oil use about 1 line on the dip stick so vey little. The matrix headlights with auto high beam Very Impressive day light all round but with out blinding on coming vehicles. Glad I went for the advanced key option very convenient, except when I’m cleaning the car with the key in my pocket and grabbing the door handles to lean down or pull myself up ( getting old ) the doors keep locking and unlocking with the door mirrors folding in and out, just leave the keys in the garage. More comfortable than expected, I had a vw scirocco 2.0 tdi R line 2016 model in the past and had to have my fillings redone very six months, very hard suspension. but this one is very comfortable. Any Questions please ask. Mark.

Hi Michael I've not gone for the dealer paint protect thing, it’s a bit expensive for what it is, I think, Taking the wheels off tomorrow and applying ( Gyeon Q2 rim ) did this on my previous vehicle and is so much easier to clean them even two years later, just snow foam them then jet wash to a spotless finish. Happy polishing

Hi Michael Did you pick up your new motor today ? If so what do you think ?

That is a long time

Sorry forgot to say, my expected delivery date at order was end of September, turned up mid/late August

Well good luck fingers crossed for you.

I was given build week 26, June 28th but when I looked at the car photos I took Saturday I could see it was built 2nd of July, Oh dear that’s a Friday 😳 then took until Friday 20th of August to arrive at sheerness docks, turned up at dealers Tuesday 24th

Oh ok, maybe my dealer doesn’t know that or didn’t communicate to me for some reasons.

Hi Nick Collection is Saturday the 4th at 5pm bit late I thought, but never mind at least I am picking it up. The key thing was said like, you’re very lucky the cars coming through are only coming with one key now, I seem to be very lucky according to my salesman, I would talk to your dealer saying you expect two keys, maybe they will pick up the bill for it, At one point the Audi configurator made a big thing about each key being customisable to each driver, bit difficult with only one key.

Hi all Went to look at the car today Saturday 28/8/21, was wrapped up in plastic inside and out but looked very nice, was told by the dealer again I was very lucky as very little now is getting through due to the part crisis, plus delivered with the car was two remote keys, normal, but from now on only one key per car will be supplied, you now have to pay extra for any more, plus if you order a car today delivery would be estimated for April 2022.

Hi all Phoned by dealer today 24/8/21 saying your car has arrived at the dealership today, that’s quick i thought it was only delivered to the docks on Friday morning, so delivered to Audi pdi dept sheerness pdi carried out and delivered to dealer all between Friday - Tuesday morning, blimey, have been asked if I would like to go and look it over, ( think they want me to pay for it really 😳 In the conversation he said you are very lucky, at one point I thought I was going to have to phone you and say delivery would be in January 2022 at best, due to the situation, but did not elaborate on that comment, but I know what he means.

Hi all I was phoned 19/8/21 by the dealer, and was told it was on the boat that was docking tomorrow, seems to have been on quite a cruise, loaded Germany 12/8/21 went to Teeside arrived 16/8/21 then sheerness 20/8/21 so I ordered it Sunday 9/5/21 was given a date of delivery end of September, told this afternoon 20/8/21 the car has been received by Audi at the docks, now in for checking taking about 5 to 6 days, to be delivered and PDI by dealer for my collection 4/9/21 car ordered A3 edition 1 auto 35 tfsi extras ( advanced key ) ( auto power boot ) not now on configuration list ( comfort and sound pack ) ( spare wheel & jack ) /
