RS4 Avant build week/com number

Post by tanoga » Wed Mar 29, 2006 1:06 pm

I confirmed my Avant order on 2nd March and have a com number but no build week as yet. My order does have specs that are covered by the "Audi Exclusive Range". Has anyone out there had an Avant build week confirmed as I am interested to know if it is my spec that may be holding up the build week confirmation. Not relevant though if no one has had an Avant build week confirmed.

For information for B7 Avant orderers.

Build Week 22 (22nd Mary 06) Production Begins
Build Week 30 (17th July 06) Customer Cars Begin Delivery.

You wont get a build week until the allocation moves from advice to confirm, once the factory confirms slots, which are converted into build weeks you will get a number. The factory will have a 96 hour clear down on one or two of the Saloon tracks ready for production. Once it starts they will roll of the line.

There is currently NO delay to the Avant programe, your build week will be based how high up the order list you were when your dealer entered your car onto Dialog.

I hope this helps.

Matt

Matt,

Thanks for the info. I was thinking the same as Tanoga. I've got my COM No., but no build week as yet, so this sets my mind to rest.

Tanoga, just out of interest, what 'exclusive' bits have you gone for?

Like it.

Are the mirrors you've ordered the normal A4 ones in yellow or the RS4 ones painted yellow?

Wow Tanoga, that's one cool spec!!!

I'm no way near as bold or brave as you. My spec is v. similar, (tech pack + TV, sports + susp, GSM phone, homelink, blinds, auto dim, auto re circ, RS4 buckets, FCA, etc) except that I've gone for boring old Phantom Black.

window tiniting? I asked but was told that you have to have this done yourself when the car arrives, and that there is no factory option!

So how much do coloured mirrors cost if you don't mind me asking?

Sutters,

Window tints are only available on the Avant, this is as per normal A4's.

Don't know why? Just another bizarre Audi thing!!

Don't know yet as its not a factory option. The mirrors will need painting at the dealership. On a £60K car I would think the cost to me would not be to much. Nudge nudge wink wink Audi
