I have been told to not name individuals - so I will be general. And it isn’t just Audi - I will be complaining about other car companies as well!you’ll upset them even more. 2025 for you now.

Oh thats a shame I was looking forward to it being all about Audi and getting shafted. I personally love how Schmee gets a press car for 6 months for 1 16 min video and someone like yourself who has ordered one for your channel is put so far to the back of the queue it's almost laughable. I have to ask but have you actually P**ssed someone off at Audi?
That is Insulting; and also I don't particularly like how I look but why should that stop me from being successful. And I do say Audi UK multiple times. Believe me, I am not nice.
Christ, I already have a 13% discount versus new prices since I ordered before the increases last year. I could sell it for a massive profit just by offering at list! These list prices and increases are getting out of hand.
I did take that into consideration. But I spoke to a few other YouTubers - Shmee150, GadgetsBoy and Jayemm and they all said that as long as I don't name anyone it shouldn't matter.Not a bad video, you were right with Apple BTW. and not Microsoft. I can see your frustration but as an influencer you need to have a good relationship with the brands in order to get access to the cars for your channel and I'm not sure that bought you any brownie points with the tw*ts at Audi UK. They probably couldn't give a damn but surely the PR department are aware of you and will keep an eye on your channel for opportunities and content like that I can't see help that relationship. On the other hand you may get a lot of appreciation from the many many people that are in a similar boat to you and are fed up with the b**ls**t that they are being told. Will be interesting. BTW the comments about Grange Hill just show peoples age and prob not your main demographic
The insults stop now. Your adults and should behave on the forum accordingly. The forum is for everyone to use. So no more insulting each other. It won’t be tolerated
saw a year old RS4 in Reading Audi, yesterday but it £90K i think, just wow. The RS6 sat next to it looked a bargain at £96K hahahahaha
By 2 years time they may have sorted out that funeral parlour like interior
You may think differently when the car arrives mate. I genuinely think this is the best looking car I have owned and really do find myself looking at it and thinking wow. Interior is quality (mostly) but I do agree if it had just had some contrast stitching what a difference it would have made. But exterior wise and drive wise I can't fault it. I was offered £6k over what I paid for it and did seriously consider it and ponder it for a couple of weeks, but in the end I couldn't let it go ... plus what else would I then get ? That said, totally get what you're saying about the 'car time out' giving you time to reflect on your personal car ownership. So any idea what direction you may take then ? As for the forum, certainly no need to bow out (unless you really wanted to). ASN welcomes owners of any car brand so your contribution will still be good round here - I mean I didn't get any bashing for owning a Merc ... lol

Wow, Audi yet again making short term gains for their cockups on the chip ordering through Covid. How on earth are punters or indeed Audi going to keep up with GFV/Trade prices with all these price fluctuations every 6 months and frankenstein specs with missing bits like matrix lights, rear cameras etc is anyone's guess. Audi should be discounting not increasing for such poor service
The fact we are all talking about it, the additional exposure this is creating prices increasing, 2nd hand RS3 values through the roof.................its marketing at its best. Some will cancel orders, some will wait, some will pay through the nose for a 2nd hand car........To me thats a great Business model
Audi can't shift the quotas of cars they would like to, that's a terrible business model and hardly "business as usual" imo. We're not talking just RS3 here, their entire production line is stuck in limbo... Customers still waiting for build dates for cars ordered 7 months ago... Then get a build date to realise options are being removed to get them off the production line with a poxy 500quid compensation... Hardly good marketing either.
Interesting!
It is a case of checking every week to see what is happening to build weeks for those of us that have some kind of date.
You've answered your own suggestion....its outwith everyone's control ....and it's pointless checking every week....
I know, I even went as far as getting a deal stacked on one yesterday. If it had been Lime Rock Grey I would have done the deal. I regularly visit M3 cutters & it's the build quality stories that do scare me. I am going to give VAG 3 months to give me something concrete in delivery terms, If still nothing forthcoming with BW then I will be going to the dark side & wedging out £90pm on a Warranty.
You reckon Buddy? F82 a litany of issues. Have a wander over to M3 cutters & you'll see. Valve cover gaskets leaking as they go brittle after heat cycling, Crank hub spinning (more likely in tuned cars) Turbo's are a big weakness apparently. AFAIK instead of going down the proven aftermarket suppliers route (i.e. Garrett) BMW's own are poor with substandard innards.
I've been on there a very long time and I don't see what you see neither have I experienced it. Yes a few people have experienced problems here and there but when you consider how many people are NOT moaning, it's nothing.
