Gotta say Ricky that it looks really good even though I'm more a supporter of Henry and Graeme .... Which is sorta understandable as mine is ordered in White :bigblink:

I know Henry's is Suzuka Grey, but if you squint it is very close to white and I'd seen one in the showroom, thought it was white and the dealer wasn't sure at first which it was.

Just a quick query of Graeme mentioning that engines are dynod/run in ... Do you know if they've done a first oil change before we get them as I was reckoning if not then I'll be changing both filter and engine oil in the first week ...

And ... August/September delivery date has been just advised as "late July" .... Only 65 sleeps :biggrin3:

Sounds like a win/win with a win !

Henry, You do realise that some of us (me) on the loooong wait list are living vacariously through the enjoyment of your good self and others who have recently taken delivery.

Jezzer is another one who'll have me doing searches for various accessories, talking about track days and the likely/unlikelihood of ever needing/wanting to add a supercharger/track wheels/tow bar/Alcantra bits/carbon fibre bits etc etc with the long suffering missus.

I might have to ban myself from this forum :bash:

Car QC checkpoint 8 week 18
Transport and arrival Emden port week 19

Almost there...and feeling relieved after going through a cancellation and re-order 2 months after the original order on 20 Dec.

Great service from Tom at Huddersfield Audi with the continuous updates and screenshots:

Ha ha ... That's bordering on tragic but I can so so so relate to it

All I can really say is: "you lucky bastard" in a Monty Pythonesque voice :beerchug:

What does the "storage package" get you in UK?

It seemed to have been dropped off the options when I ordered in Oz
