RS3 no longer available to order?

Is this a website glitch, or is the production run over?

It is probably due to the facelift model being rolled out.

No orders being taken now as already said, facelift will be next. Likely to get the 400PS TTRS engine and a few more tweaks. Dealer already told me that the order books won't be opening for the new one until January 2017. It may well be a Saloon as well as a Sportback.

Not familiar with RS3 forum or other similar subject threads (am coming from B9 RS4), but having been talking w/ local Dealer ... is it official / confirmed that current RS3 generation will no longer be produced until next Gen?
I had thought that once WLTP issue was sorted that I would eventually resume. A short production life, sadly, if true:-(

It sounds like a very short production run. Do we know how many were manufactured or how this will affect depreciation on the current model?
