My S3 has finally arrived at my dealer, and will be collecting it next Friday. So looking forward to it.

I can confirm that the £500 deposit contribution is still available on the S3 Sportback, but it is a dealer contribution and not an Audi manufacturer contribution. I can't answer why the S3 Sportback is not available on the Audi Finance Calculator.

I am only having it fitted because it's free. I wouldn't pay for any factory fitted sat - nav system, because as already mentioned. portable sat - nav's are cheaper to buy new and certainly cheaper to update. As said many times before, specification of any car is down to personal choice.

From what I understand from my dealer, it's Audi who are fitting the Sat-Nav for free, as the standard spec has now changed. I would take this up with Audi directly if your dealer would agree to have it fitted for free.

Original BW was 45, but this has been brought forward to BW42 (which is next week), and I placed the order in July.

I have just received confirmation from my dealer that the SD Sat-Nav will be fitted FOC to my S3, even though I had not included it in my original spec. :yahoo:

I was looking on the Audi Website this evening, and it appears that the S3 Sportback now comes with Sat Nav - SD card based fitted as standard. I have asked my dealer to confirm if this is the case, and I expect, if it is, that this is because a facelift model is coming out next year.

I received an email from my dealer today, and my build week has been brought forward from 45 to 42, and should be delivered to my dealer in 4-5 weeks time. Happy days :yahoo:

I now have build week 45

Hi, Having recently re-ordered my S3 SB with another dealer, and after chasing them up for a build week and delivery date on two occasions now, they have informed me that there is a delay in obtaining build weeks from the factory at the moment, and that there is a delay across the whole Audi...

I phoned Audi this morning and I made an official complaint about the dealer concerned, who said that they would file the complaint for me (probably you know where!!), and that there was nothing more that they can do, as the complaint is between myself and the dealer concerned, as it is a...

I'm disappointed to say that I cancelled my S3 order with my dealer, as he seemed to take offence that I wanted to change the spec. I received a sarcastic email from their Head Of Business, so I told them what they could do with my order, managed to get all of my deposit back!! I am now trying...

If you can afford to, go for the B&O sound system. I have this system in my A4 Black Edition, and it is superb. I have opted for it in my new S3, rather than going for the sat nav.

I might add the SD sat nav at a later date, especially as it might annoy me having the rocker button on the centre console, knowing that it doesn't do anything. I'm also having privacy glass fitted, but my dealer is getting a glass company in to do it, as I want to have a say on how dark the...

Personally I would only use the sat nav, the most, twice a year, and there were other options that I would make more use of. At the end of the day it's all down to personal choice. I have now added LED headlights, high beam assist and red brake callipers, much to the frustration of my dealer...
