350 miles in, car is just amazing. Parked up in the co-op earlier and had a group of 3/4 people behind me just staring and talking about how nice it is, felt like showing them the keys ;) the looks it gets, sound, way It drives and even had over 30mpg this morning :laughing: I can't wait to see all you guys get your cars!

Getting more an more jealous.. my patience is going out the window - I just want mine to arrive now!!

30mpg, Sensible to take it easy. Glad you are enjoying it..
Wish I knew the magic formula Audi was using for allocating the build week for mine.. still nothing to update from my dealer.:sob:

have you managed to work out how much of the sound is real and if any of it is artificial ?
I'd love you to say there is no sound actor thing on the RS3 and its all real sound

Thing is If you’re purchasing a RS3 pretty sure you’ve got a feral streak, A bit naughty And wanna see some action have a laugh,
There’s a few YouTubers that are boring as **** had more of an entertaining listen to Jehovah’s Witnesses go on, Who is the Short Goofy guy with the glasses He reminds me of my old IT teacher guaranteed to drop to sleep Listening to him bet he’s got coffee breath as well.

Honestly, it’s really loud & you can tell which is fake and theres not much of it. I’ll get a video soon of a drive by, maybe tonight if I pop back out. RS Performance is just a mad setting hahaha it changes the whole car like crazy

Goes to show, the OPF S/RS3's were fudged to get them through the tests and hence sounded pretty soft.

At least with the 8Y it sounds like they've had proper chance to sort the acoustics out and get it somewhere near. They'll never be the same as pre-opf but early indicators are good.

Keep the info coming Alex!
 
Hmmmm

I’m thinking this is the Audi Oldham car I drove.

The Kemora demo only recently came in and he told me it meant the black one could be reserved.

Yeah I knew about it when he offered me the black one.
He said I could buy it but they couldn’t release it until the Kemora came in.

Pretty std as soon as they have to do something other than routine servicing etc,
My golf, they noticed when servicing it that the infotainment screen 'flickered' when the reverse camera came on, and only when the reverse camera was on, Nav or music. Car Play etc all 100%, so what did they change? the infotainment screen and guess what? it still flickered in reverse only, so they changed the rear camera, sorted :)

No surprise here bit late to the party if anything
 
I challenge anybody to find a worst dealership than Audi Oldham .

I bought my RSQ3 from there 2.5yrs ago and the experience didn't give me a "fizz" as James May likes to call it. All very formal, no after sales call just to see if things were OK after taking delivery, like you didn't exist after handing over your wad of cash etc... I took my servicing elsewhere as a result and my business unless they have what I want on the forecourt. Manchester branch is close to work and they always made you feel welcome. Looked after my previous A4 well also... Not dealt with Stockport at all... But noted lol

Order placed for a Dayton Grey Vorsprung Saloon at Bolton Audi.

Order confirmed 11/11/2021.
Estimated Delivery 30/06/2022.

Oldham Audi is definitely the worst, rude half-wit service team when taking in my S3 8V FL, vowed never to use the Jardine group again (had 6 friends with the same issue) but they do have the most Audi dealerships at 14 so most likely to get an allocation sooner than others.

Stockport Audi have lovely staff shame inchcape are such a small group.

Also, West London Audi(synther) wouldn’t accept an order without a minimum 10% deposit despite not having a guaranteed allocation.

I got the discount wrong when l first posted don't ask me why....was on holiday at the time, my discount was £1200 odds of a £60k car 2% so £1650 is way better than a boot in the bawz

My dealer matched the discount from coast to coast at £1785.83, which is odd because I just looked at my invoice to confirm the actual amount and I was sure it was around £1200
