Is it a demonstrator or delivery mileage pre-reg?
Doing some research on discounts right now, so if you don't mind, could you PM me with the discount you haggled for?
Enjoy it and let us know how it compares to the M3.

Looks real nice.

TBH, Mugello is defo growing on me as it's that bit more subtle than Sprint (still prefer Sprint though) ;)

I am really pleased with the colour.

It is RS4 only (unlike sprint blue ;-) ) and really changes colour depending on the weather / light.

Looks lighter and really metalic in the sun, but almost purple blue when its dark.

lovely :-)

Looks nice, but are you sure Mugello is RS4 specific?? I thought the only blue that was RS specific was Sprint Blue (no colour is RS4 specific).

I've seen TT's in Mugello & a good few RS6's in Mugello, plus a pal of mine is about to finalise his R8 order in Mugello blue. Saying that, i may well have seen other Audi's in Sprint Blue as well.

TBH though, Audi will paint any car in any colour for a price, so nowadays no colour is specific to any range/model.

I thought it was RS specific.

I did a hunt through the configurator

You can get moro, mauritious, sprint, and night (blue) but not mugello (looked on A3, A4, TT, A8,A6 including S models)

Looking at the icons, quite a few will look "similar" to Mugello

I can't be sure, however i do know that any colour can be had on any Audi, so their are not really any model specific colours anymore. Don't believe the Audi Configurator, it's often wrong with most things.

I know already of 2 TT's in Mugello (could have been special order).

Mugello is a very nice colour however so enjoy the motor 8)
