OK, clearly being thick. Where is the build Sticker? All i can see under the bonnet is shed loads of lovely engine!!! and can't see anything in the wheel well.

Milton Keynes Audi, good guys down there, have looked after me for years

Spec wise, I think the only things it didn't have were B&O, Ceramics (had those on the R8, didn't get on with them) night vision and pan roof and a tow bar, has everything else on it. I think the black wheels with black pack looks pretty cool. Have to say i am very pleased with it, however......

When i told the wife i was buying it, she said why the hell are you buying an estate, you may aswell have bought a volvo and my two young girls now refer to Daddy driving a Volvo - not impressed

They didn't tell me you can assign the plate on line, balls - that would have saved me some grief!!!

It's not same car as the one the advert as that's a pre face lift, and light interior.

As already mentioned its reg in Milton Keynes area.

It's look like Noggy but if it turns really bright it direct sunlight it could well be sprint blue. Definitely not kingfisher or estoril :beerchug:

Don't think that's your paint code.

Your looking for either

Noggy blue - LZ5M
Sprint blue - LZ5F
Sepang blue - LY5Q

I could post a pic of the Sticker from the service book, although not sure thats a great idea?

i looked on the link from earlier, where i would expect to see that paint colour it says "------ / -------"

the only other bit is N5M/UB?

Best way is to look in the boot well again. There should be a Sticker where the spare wheel should sit. The paint code is definately listed on there :beerchug:

Didn't the dealer know what they were selling? I know this is Audi, but that's a new low!

Also you can now assign the plate online and its instant I.e you can swap plates there and then.
Isn't that just with newly acquired plates DK?

I bought 3 reg's from DVLA a few months back & all of those are registered on their online system so i assume can also be managed/transferred etc. online, however my existing Reg of W8 PMC can't be added to that mix, although i believe DVLA stated older reg's will be able to be added in the future.

Seconded.

I can't imagine any company would try to fleece customers with a £6k remap. Pricing seems odd as i'd expect the Akro to be circa £6k on a C7 so if £10k including the remap or £6k remap only, something doesn't add up.

Any reg

It clearly launched on a beta platform but is fully live now
