Well it's a farce. Audi UK seemingly couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery. One step forward, thirteen back. Tomorrow is d-day, if it ain't sorted then, I am definitely out!

If I bail out then that's it. I'm not going through this again. Audi have pretty much made their bed in my view, and that's now volume over premium. So be it, 991 it will be.

Not just a Audi case of bad service must be a VAG thing just seen 2 mates 1 ordered a vw amaarok in may. Still hasn't turned up the other been waiting for a golf R since June supposed to be here September. Both no signs of them and been pushed back R said to be here end of oct to December, but a friend who works there said more likely next year WTF. Something going on somewhere I know they're popular cars but there's so much more that has higher demand.

The cynic in me thinks they are waiting until after the Scots independence vote, see if our currency drops and sort pricing after that.

It may be clutching at straws but I can't see any decent reason for the delay in ability to order now.

I think they are waiting for the Paris Motorshow which is 4th to 19th October before any new pricing / details become official

That would run contrary to their release to dealers advising of pricing/spec being available week commencing the 8th, and also run contrary to the open for orders in September statement too.

Though I fear you may be closer to the mark with timescales than the audi desktop release.

The latest is that details are expected in September. Expectation is no physical RS6 until next year.

I was due a call this morning. The morning came and went. Deposit will be heading back to me shortly, barring a miracle.

Fiasco.

Pretty shoddy, my stealer at Ox Audi has been great. I just hope it all comes through,

Top tip is to request a track and trace from AUK or the dealer, that should be a direct call to Audi Germany, and should be as truthful as you can get,

I fail to understand why some cars are going through ( or being told they are ) and earlier cars stopped, no logic!

Good luck, hoping the unlikely miracle come through!

Dealer has been excellent. I cannot recommended Kings Lynn highly enough. Audi UK however have killed any lingering desire I had to buy another Audi. That chapter is done!
