Hope all those wanting/needing to collect before Fridays deadline for the VED changes goes smoothly !! And if not - Audi come up with suitable recompense to cover the extra £310 a year.
When I ordered my SB S3 back in January - dealership didn't know/played dumb Re the VED changes - so after doing my own checking/reading up - tweaked my order so as to be below the 40K OTR price (dropped the advanced Key/Pano roof)
Order just changed to a Orderstatus 20
orderHistory":[{"orderStatus":"20","statusDate":"2017-03-28T01:06:08+0100"}
But that suits me - as current Mercedes A220 due to be handed back Early June - so didn't want any overlap with the 2 cars.
Anyone of the sales people there should've been able to tell you if you gave them your order number at the dealer. Should call back and ask Let us know what's said.
I know I cant believe it yet, dealer hasn't confirmed yet, but according to Audi UK it has reached the Audi Centre!! still surprised the last bit sailed through! See what he says and let us know and I reckon you should be here either later on today or tomorrow . Your quite close to the port aswell, Have you spoke to Audi CS ? See what there system says?Lucky devil! You and @Sam Millar were both on the same ship as me and mine is still in Grimsby port. Typical as Hull Audi is only 30 miles away!! I've suggested some extreme methods of collection to my dealer so waiting on his response!
I'm build week 13 and it's already left the factoryAnyone on here BW13? Be good to compare our timelines etc. once we leave the factory.
Congrats. I am still stuck in Emden.Just got a call from my dealer saying my car is on a transporter and will be with them tomorrow/Friday, pickup booked for 4pm Friday!
BW10
The dream is over. Confirmed 100% it won't be status 60 til Monday.
Self collection not an option, Audi are blocking early registrations and collections from port apparently so definitely won't be at the dealers til Monday. It is what it is, have to accept it now! First world problems to th extreme though ha!
Good luck to all those who can still make it!
Here was me thinking I was doing well in the auto-populated QCI'm build week 13 and it's already left the factory
Here's hoping. What time did your tracker update? 1?Someone same week as us left factory yesterday I was today hopefully ull be tomorrow and make it on the same boat
Well, I'll have to join you with that. Most likely to pick up next week now, although it's with the dealers but its with their PDI centre, they need time with it. They will check it thoroughly and ensure there are no problems. I don't want them to rush it either, they will try for Friday if not it has to be sometime next week otherwise.The dream is over.

Yeah, its unfortunate timing but I think we knew what we were in for when we ordered.Well, I'll have to join you with that.

Ah well, things happen will just have to accept it.
Could easy beYeh 0100, Im 3 door so don't know if yours is a different factory ?
Hi all,
Ordered an A3 S-Line 1.4 tfsi on the 20th March and after being told it would be delivered est. 31/07/2017 its now showing in the tracker as starting on the 17/07/2017. So more like mid August no? In all your experience how likely is this start date likely to be true to life? I thought you get a build week, but no mention of that as yet. What to expect?
Thanks in advance
Mark.
Isar Highway is in Emden now and will arrive on the 31st in GrimsbyIs there any ships over emden heading to Grimsby in the next day or so ? I cant remember the website to track them from last time
What build week are you? And did CS confirm your on status 40?Wohooo status 40 just been confirmed, tracker hasn't updated though.
Congrats! Still gutted to know I was on the same ship as you and @Sam Millar and my car won't be delivered til monday/tuesday and it only has to travel ~30 miles I'm sure I'll get over it when I sit behind the wheel, but for now I remain butthurtTime stamps and guide for reference for those still waiting!!, Mines skipped status 60!. I had a long hold up at Emden for 15 Days!! When it hit status 39 it sailed through to 70 in 4 days.
Just waiting for collection date confirmation now!!

Don't worry, i'm in the same situation as you, unhappy, although they have the vehicle, I wont get it till next week because of their PDI centre. So I will also have to pay the tax increase and I believe @Sam Millar will also be collecting next week. Well, we arrived on the same boat and we WILL get our cars next week and pay the price!!. Like you said sitting behind the wheel will surely help ease the pain. Hate the tax man I always feel like he's targeting me lol!! Trying to be positive !!Congrats!

My Build week 14 S3 Sportback is in the panel shop! Been a long wait.
Yes and yes.Okay so my car has been sat at the Port of Emden since 21/03/17. Currently City Of Oslo ship is sat at Emden port.. does anybody know the next departure for this ship and if so is it going to Sheerness?! Cheers
Cheers for the link! I hope my car is on the one for today!Yes and yes.
Check this link for the scedule: http://www.gramcar.com/fleetlist/city-of-oslo/
And I am stuck at Emden since the 16th. Car was released for shipping on the 20th.
FYI response from CS on time scales:
CS - Once at the Port (german side), vehicles can wait up to 14 days to be loaded onto a boat for the UK. If the ship arrives during the working week, vehicles take on average 24 hours to be unloaded. Your car can then wait for up to one week to be assigned to a transporter for delivery to the Audi Centre. Once the vehicle is on the transporter the timescale for delivery to the Audi Centre is three to five working days.
I then asked about if there is a delay due to a lot of cars being at the german port and they said:
CS - This may vary, it may be due to the time of year that some vehicles may sit at the Port of Exit for14 days. Once a vehicle is sat at the Port of Exit for 15 days, it is then priority for the next ship.
