Car has went up just over 1% from £77,995 to £78,790 for the MY16
The downloadable brochure and finance calculator still displaying the old figures, just a case of not being updated.
Does anyone know if there are any spec changes to the MY16 cars? Also, if your order has already placed and you've been given a build slot, finance agreed etc, I presume the figures wont change making the increase irrelevant?

The only change that was listed on desktop as of the 9th April was:
1) NEW Three‐spoke leather multi‐function sports steering wheel – heated. with gear shift paddles in aluminium‐look, contrast stitching and RS emblem. (1XT) £200
2) CHANGE RS logo on brake calipers (1KJ) RS logo now standard on front and rear brake calipers.
I think that if you have placed an order and paid a deposit (whether a confirmed build slot or not) they will honour the price you agreed but I am not sure.

Is it just the rear brake calipers that are having a change then?
My MY15 has the RS logo already on the front calipers...
Yet press pics of the MY15 when I Google it come up with calipers with "Audi" on them.

Yeah spotted that after posting but on mobile so editing was a pain.
I assume my caliper is normal and the updated RS logo change hasn't sneaked in early. My rear calipers have no such logo. Nor indeed do I see any easy place to put one.

I wonder if they plan to fit a decent 2-pot caliper on the rear wheels? I can't think how they are going to brand the current floating rear calipers - there just isn't any metal to apply a decal to.

I guess they will logo it with the same black insert they used on the red caliper option. Floating caliper is never going to look great, the black insert makes it look a bit better...maybe....2/4/6 pot caliper would look sweet! Here is a picture I found on the web
