Don't be saying that to me, I went for the B&O along with quite a few other options. I effectively spent the discount I got from Carwow on adding optional equipmentWhatever you do don’t order B&O that’ll get you into another expensive habit
Haha thanks, hopefully you'll have it soon then.
I'm not in too much of a hurry to be fair, my estimated delivery date was 31/03/18 to begin with so I was expecting it in March and to be an 18 plate.
I am however like a kid at Christmas waiting for it. Fell in love with the Audi's when I went and sat in one just before Christmas.
That’s the best way of looking at it, my car is a status 39 now so apparently it’s on a ship, so I’m hoping it’ll be with me in the first week of MarchStill sat at UK port, would have thought they would want to deliver cars to customers ASAP to save storage!
Oh well, I'll take 18 reg!
Good point.Storage is the cheap bit, cars are sat outside in a big car park bumper to bumper, the expensive bit it the car transporter, they can only take about 8 cars each run, and there will be only so many transporters available to each dealer, and at this time of year they will be flat out.
So excited. It’s seems like ages since you ordered. Remember the no.1 rule we must have lots of pics on collection. Roll on next Thursday. xYep, I'm waiting for one as well, but I know my car is at the dealers as I've already seen it last week. Collection is booked at 11am on the 1st.
Pics on your collection next Thursday. It’s the enjoy.I was amazed at how quickly it got to the dealers, from leaving the port in Germany it took less than 24hrs! Roll on 2.30pm 1st March!
It’s pics on collection day.Good point.
My car just hit status 40 which would coincide with a ship that docked in Grimsby. I don’t mind them taking their time getting it to me.
As long as it’s the 1st of March because I can’t wait but I feel like I’d be stupid not to wait for the new reg, even if it’s purely for vanity
I think mine sat there from 24/12/17 for a good 6+ weeksHi all
I've entered my order details in, car ordered on the 2nd February and I'm getting this back from the system:
"orderStatus": "00",
"statusDate": "2018-02-02T01:12:20+0000"
20 days on, when should I expect to see a change / progress - nothing seems to have happened in three weeks. Apologies if this is standard practice.
I think mine sat there from 24/12/17 for a good 6+ weeks
Wow! So the time frame for getting the car starts from when you get a build slot? I was quoted mid-May / June when before I placed the order.
It’s collection day
Need a bit of help deciphering the order details in JSON as I await a build slot, please!
What does (under Vehicle Data) "ModelVersion: 2" mean:
"vehicleData": {
"make": "Audi",
"model": "A5 Sportback",
"modelVariant": "S line 2.0 TFSI",
"modelVersion": "2",
"modelYear": "2018",
Also, on my S-Line list there are lots and lots of mentions of "displayable": true - and "standard": false
What do these mean?
"subParentLabel": "Exterior styling",
"productId": "MBBO6FA",
"name": "Body-coloured door mirrors",
"displayable": true,
"standard": false
Thanks!
Errr no idea on the Model version, if it makes you feel better mines S line 3.0 TDI Quattro and model version 1?!?!?
Displayable is basically what the car is coming with options list wise
Standard false, I'd not worry as its across all of mine. Maybe if you pick a standard car and add no options at all it may say Standard True, who knows.
Should probably get under way soon, mine sat like a lump at 00 for AGES and then when there was movement I had it so fast, Production and QA was only about 2-3 days until it was shipped by rail to the port.I am itching for progress on my A5, it has been seven weeks since my order went on the system and daily, for the last two weeks, I've been checking the above track my order link and I'm still on a 00. From your experience how long until I move to at least the next stage?
I was quoted a May / June delivery originally. Perhaps I was hoping, 1%, of it sooner as I'm bored of my Jaguar after four years.
Also, is there more chance of get an 18.5MY the longer it goes than the 18MY I ordered on February 1st?
Been on status 38 for two and a half weeks now, the wait is killing me. Ordered at the start of March and was advised delivery in June sometime, however when I heard it was in Emden, I assumed it would be delivered by end May. Not looking likely!
What colour is this?Ah no way - that's awful, least you didn't turn up expecting your car and then find it! Collected mine this afternoon, extremely happy with it!!
