No they don't! Folding mirrors look more like standard mirrors i think. The way to check is turn the mirror control button to 6 o'clock if they are folding they will fold! (with ignition on)

Mine has folding mirrors which (and I might be wrong here) are only available for the Cab. They are a different shape where they attach to the door, I'm sure that on the Saloon and Avant thay are mounted on to the door by two small stems whereas on the Cab they are one large mounting.

As I said earlier, I'm not 100% on this but I'm pretty sure it's something like that.

Cab = Standard
Saloon & Avant = Option (and a very strange choice if taken!)

folding mirrors were only an option on the cab so the ladies could check their hair from the sides as well ;)

I had to remove folding mirrors from my Avant order because Audi wouldn't build it with folding mirrors!

Can (could) you spec the twin-arm Avant / Saloon mirrors for the cab?

Funny - I did a special order with memory seats, and had to fight like mad not to get folding mirrors as part of the package!

Memory seats can be retro fitted if you want them, I am going to have it done!

It was a challenge to get all parties (i.e. dealer, Audi UK, Audi DE etc lined up...) but from a previous post -

"Sure thing (although you may well be a bit on the late side...) It needs to go through as follows, and believe me, it took a while to sort!

SPECIAL ORDER FACTORY OPTION
Drivers Seat with Memory 3L4
Auto Dimming Rear View Mirror PU9
Door Mirrors Heated - Auto Dimming - With Memory in Standard RS4 Design 6XM

Very important to stress the Standard RS4 Design part otherwise you would get the folding mirrors from the S4

All up a reasonable £600 - that's £400 on top of the basic price for the auto-dim. I checked and light & rain are still included

I've got a contact name in product marketing for this one. If anyone needs it, PM me"
