RS3 Build Tracker Spreadsheet

Compared to the A45 I guess they had to have it nearer that price tag along with inflation.
8V wasn’t exactly cheap when new either.
I don't know about UK, but here there is 18,6% tax for anything with engine over 2.0l and 3,1% for smaller engines. Yet RS3 is around 200 pounds more than A45S. The difference was larger in the past, but not anymore.
 
Morning All,
Not much activity last week: so 95% copy and paste. Very quite 3rd week, historically, where Audi should be kicking off the Daytona and Kemora Grey batch.
Strangely quite.
Expect to see a bunch of cars wearing the 73 plate as they are collected. Have 2 in the wings.
Even with the number of cancellations, we are showing about 75% of orders being fulfilled to date.
Collected last week: None

Can’t give em away.

A bargain maybe if he can’t sell, someone could offer on it.

3 price drops from 65k

It’s a hard sell even at that price.

I was talking to a performance car dealer last week and he’s pointed out that the market is really slowing down as dealers are struggling to move cars on.
Economy / cost of living / high PCP Apr all playing a part.

Thanks for sharing my ad
I’ve turned down 3 offers of £60k so far, so we’re almost there.
It’s always going to be a hard slog for a private seller with a vehicle over £30-40k as I can’t offer finance which most people are looking for.

I've have been accused of not being able to afford the l ordered pmsl....at that, car was £59k plus change monthly was £418 and most of the deposit came from the profits of the sale of my 2 previous Audi's,l drove the Mrs company car for 20 months gratis could of taken the car over a short term HP agreement if l wanted to,but waiting waiting just ****** me off big time like it did with so many would be owners,the long wait also gave me time to reflect and think what l really wanted, without a doubt the RS3 8Y saloon is a looker,my preference has always been having a nice interior...contrast stitching,lighter tone of leather etc etc ....this was were the long wait came into play, as time went on, l just realised l couldn't live with the black on black seats,high gloss black trim on that centre console, cheap scratchy black plastic didn't bother as much as the hearse like interior...so all the money l had for the 8Y is still there....waiting for the car that ticks more boxes and doesn't need to have 400 bhp with an RS ego
 
Ok chaps, I'm not pointing fingers here as it is not just down to a single member but It would appear that this specific forum has taken a rather disappointing step backward with regard to members' replies and postings.
Everyone is allowed to voice there comments etc but it's becoming a noticeable downward spiral again with constant baiting and bickering in half a dozen threads.
Please refrain from this sort of site behavior, it doesn't do anyone any favors whatsoever, if you don't like a reply then just ignore it rather than fuelling the fire.
Just use the ignore button.
If moderators have to keep deleting replies it just makes a mockery of the whole process.

I honestly do not know why you are not banned on here. You are the biggest troll I’ve come across. This is a build tracker thread discussion stop going off topic and spamming up the place with your idiotic troll behaviour.

You are throughly disliked on here, you are throughly disliked on the Facebook groups. You sneakily post stuff on this forum but sneakily move about on the fb groups screenshotting other members posts taking the mick out of them ok here, hiding behind an unknown identity with no face to it.. Nobody knows who you are on these groups because you move like a little mean girl . Was you bullied at school? How old are you? 10? Grow up and get a life. You don’t own an rs3 and you bring nothing to this discussion or forum in general.

Banned for what exactly……?

Discussing something with TX ?

Posting a picture of a RS3 that someone was trying to sell ?

What business is it yours who views Facebook groups? It’s a free world, how many thousands of Audi owners view various forums all the time without ever posting a thing, it’s no business of yours at all, you seem to have some massive chip on your shoulder about me.

I’ve been one of biggest contributors to this forum for years, you’ve no idea at all.

Yet here we have you ‘Mr Angry’ because people are talking about things that don’t concern yourself.

You don’t own an RS3 of any vintage do you ? Not sure you posted about having one yet have you ?

And the sneaking remark hmmmmmm…..

Aren’t you the one in various threads that has been asking people if you can buy their cars via PM, so your either a car dealer trying to fly under the radar or a Walter Mitty type.

It’s actually you that doesn’t offer anything to ASN, except to come on here ranting all the time whether about me or Jassy06

I’ve clearly touched a nerve with the ‘car dealer’ remark, which makes me think that’s why your on this forum, to profit from other members cancelling their orders, not because you own an RS3 at all.

Just keep ignoring me and I won’t bother you at all.

Oh and the RS3, very much still in my possession.

Morning All,
Still Very Quiet. Too quiet. We should have been notified of Daytona Grey and Kemora Grey car production being kicked off in June/July by now.
one or two exclusive colours are being built notifications. Is it a case of current 8Y version being wound up?.

I've confirmed with two dealers that their orders for Tango Red got scheduled to week 38. This last slot I can take for my order or this color is gone.

If your order was accepted before the stop-sell on Tango-red, then it should get rolled up on the 38week run. Your dealer may have better insight.

I had to accept my order to be moved to 38th week. Should be ready for pickup in October. Initially it was supposed to go into production Feb'24.

I was considering also changing to Ascari Blue Matt, but was told no chance for any exclusive color on RS3 anymore.

Was a time, when it was possible to change anything within the standard offer before the factory started to organise the parts for the build.
Exclusive colours added more cogs to this and was an exception.
So can understand the rejection for the exclusive colour at this late stage, adding to this that, RS3 8Y has been well past, stop-sell a few months in Europe.

It's not a stage because I wanted to cancel my current order and place new with another dealer. It's just it would mean production not before Q2'2024. And salesman couldn't accept order without prior confirming the price of color and availability. But he got the answer that there are no production plans for RS3 in Q2 at all at this moment.

For anyone who has their RS3 already, what sort of insurance quotes are you getting or have, and how much is the tax?

Comparing insurance is a tricky subject because even just a different postcode can have a massive effect.

I was £480 last year at 36 years old with 13 years NCB. This year it looks like it’ll be closer to £700 with nothing changed apart from my no claims increasing by a year. Ridiculous.

Tax is fixed rate these days for petrol cars and comes in at £570 after the first year. And then goes down to something like £270 after four years I believe?

Ah okay thanks, just had a bit of a shock, last year I checked using a number plate from an RS3 launch edition at my dealers just to get a rough idea and was getting around £700, back then I was 29 years old with 12 years no claims and 3 points, just checked today, I am now 30 years old and 13 years no claims and my 3 points have gone from my licence and the cheapest quote I could find was £1700
