I took advantage of high used car prices and sold my 5 month old TTS Vorsprung almost 11 months ago and have been driving my wife's car ever since
A Nasa rocket scientist...couldn't make any sense of Audi's build process
Think I may have to do the same. I am sure the wife will be over the moon
Just out of curiosity why did you order with Shrewsbury audi and not Hereford? I live in Shrewsbury and I have 2 audi's I've had nothing but problems with Shrewsbury audi so much so I've ordered my rs3 from Hereford. So why not Hereford mate?
I have only just ordered mine as I was following this thread and could see it was pointless ordering I've kept in contact with my local dealerships and it seems they all think its picking up now all except for VS editions they think could take as long as 18months for some reason. I've ordered a turbo blue SB carbon black which out of all 3 dealerships I spoke to said 7months wait. I would rather wait 7 months and pay 7 grand less than line the pockets of these out and out robbers inflating the price.
Was at the beginning of 2022, when every 2 months batch of cars were coming through, Carbon and Standard version, then the the war around tail end of Feb killed any predictability we were forming. However, dealers were getting the cars and appearing on Auto-Trader. No logic at all. Some Vorsprung's Saloons also came through tail end of Feb-April, with Vorsprungs ordered at the start were skipped for later ordered cars.
Possibly/guessing, cars build slots for UK may be, being scaled down in favour of other bigger new markets. (Audi UK are keeping very, very quiet, if this is the case.)
Carbon should be quicker than Vorsprung, not unless a cancelled order comes your way.
Oh....l can't lie its caused friction between me and the Mrs several times over the last year...but some bribery sorts that oot lolThink I may have to do the same. I am sure the wife will be over the moon
Think the panoramic roof slows down lead times for Vorsprung models l had a build week of 47 at that point I would of been waiting 14 months it then went to build week 49....ok fair enough...that was in April this year then l contacted my dealer late June....and it had got pushed back to build week 09 of 2023 a huge jump WHY...its because production of right hand drive car for UK market has been somewhat pushed aside for other larger more lucrative markets tha6t the only reason l can think of for such a large push back/delay of build week and l can't see it moving forward
I genuinely feel for you bud but to be fair you've stuck with it you deserve to be pi**ed off though but it is what it is I suppose things out of your control.

Yeah the dealer I ordered with said its picking up now he doesn't think it will be as long as people think. I'm thinking 12 months for my carbon black SB anything before is a bonus. Can I say thanks for doing the table like others said before it's very useful and I'm sure many appreciate you taking the time to do it so Thankyou RS
Good Morning All,
@3vans [Vorspung] & @Cheifweasel [Carbon] have picked up their cars. @3vans presently holds Longest Wait Trophy
@billymc92 & @K44WMY 's Vorsprung are now in build status and should be with them within weeks,
@Patrickv should be the next in line, however as its a Sportsback, is anyones guess.
@dixiebrook & @Phill6666 joining the spreadsheet list
! There were 23 cars placed on order for the first 2 weeks of books opening with 16 delivered and 6 awaiting patiently, all Vorsprungs.
I wish it was weeks. Dealer doesnt even have a VIN for mine yet. Even then when it lands its going straight to get wrapped. Made sense to get wrapped over ppf. Front end ppf costing £1600 whole car wrapped £2000.
If my SB DaG VS doesn't arrive in September I think I'll see what colours are available at what prices and go for a wrap. If not, move on to something else.

Spoke to Audi Uk today, only thing they can say whoever you speak to is I don’t know. Audi live up to the image of car sales men.
Sure are, they don’t sell cars just take deposits. Last time I ordered with Audi gave a £8500 deposit and after 12 months still could not deliver the car. No chip shortage or war. Need the deposits and new orders to keep the lights on
Mines been pushed back to week 51. [mention]RS3ree [/mention] yours is still 42

language please guys, keep it civil even if you do have an issue with a dealer etc.
If you wish to vent your anger or frustration on the forums please use less colourful wording.

If you have had a confirmed build week they have 10 weeks after that to get your car to you or will need to provide a vehicle
I’ve had nothing from the broker to say that my car is built, it’s still showing as confirmed build week 28 apparently. I would’ve thought it would be built by now if it was going according to plan so I’m not holding my breath for a delivery in the next month or so…

I'm in a similar boat to you. SB DaG VS. BW30. I asked broker last week and there's nothing to say it's been pushed back like other cars he has. But nothing to say it's being built either.

I had build week confirmed as 26 from MSG (27-06-22). The next update i got was when i asked for an update, was that it was already at the dealer (20-07-22) and delivery could be 1 week later! So yours could already be on its way??? Figures crossed!!
Same here mate, been watching out for you to get an update, mine is also build week 28, Status 20( which I believe is a confirmed build?) Spoke to dealer and currently no vin or any other information!! So close but so far away!!!
I know bud. This is probably the worst part my dealer did say should have a vin by end of week. So lets see how accurate she is.
Yeah it’s through MSG as well so hopefully it’s a similar experience. Thanks!
