How many S5s?

Post by chrish » Mon Aug 20, 2007 2:31 pm

As the dealers have sold all their demos and initial deliveries have benn made how many of you own them so far?
I am getting the impression that there aren't that many.

Ours was delayed at production stage 7 for over a fortnight. It was scheduled for week 26 production, and we therefore should have taken delivery mid July. The car didn't arrive at the dealers until 31/7 so we delayed until 1/9 as we've just been away. The car is now PDI'd and ready to go (reg transfer complete etc), we just have to wait. Still not seen the car though as the dealer is 100 miles away!!!

Do you know whether this delay was just for the first ones off the line as the recent A5 delay did not affect the S5 as it was related to manual seats?
Am I right in thinking there are very few S5s on the road so far?

Chrish, I've no idea what the delay was, or how many S5's are on the road so far.

NONE Electric seat models have been delayed, due I think to the seats not returning to original pos after allowing people in the rear seats.
