Well after 12 week wait picked up my new Avant today, gone is my beloved and controversial Garnet Red, replaced by Sepang Blue, with lunar silver super sport seats amongst the options.
Went a bit overboard with the exclusive paint and supersport seats, but with the massive discounts available couldn't resist going a bit over the top.
Went with the 2.0, s tronic and quattro, for no other reason than, I wanted to, and once again got fantastic service from Basingstoke.

Enjoy the car just gone for a very similar spec car, except the paint as I could not bring myself to spend the £2K on paint (but would have loved to). What other options did you spec, and how are you finding the seats?

Found the seats very comfortable so far, although not used it much yet, but the main thing is ....they look awesome!.
Also got tech pack, pana roof, ambient lighting, matrix headlights and parking pack.
Keeping this one for a while so didn't mind spending a bit on options, well pleased with it, I will try to get a pic up later.

Nice looking motor, (and Tandem). Brave to go with a cream interior!

Signature update required? no?

Your car looks super. Your car spec is virtually identical to mine though I went for kingfisher blue and s-line spec. It was tough deciding between kingfisher and Sepang!
Like yourself, mines a keeper so throw a bit more money at it. Have done a few external mods since getting it and will post a picture soon
Enjoy your car.

Don't worry about the pale leather. They just need a wee bit more work than the black. A weekly clean and a set of seat covers for the days when your doing a tip run and they will be fine. Mine still look like new after 6 months. I think they really lift the car.

Wow! That looks great!

I've just ordered a replacement for my 2013 S Line 2.0 Multi. My spec is almost identical to yours

3.0 TDi (272) Quattro Black Edition
Sepang Blue
Tech Pack
Matrix Headlights
Ambient Lighting
Lunar Silver Sports Seats
20" 5 Twin Spoke Wheels

Decided as I'll keep it around 4 years I would go for a top spec. I got a great discount too.

Delivery Late December / Early Jan

@smileman - that is a very nice looking car.

Got to ask though, when dropping that king of dough, you did not go for a 3.0?... Maybe you're more into toys but whichever, very nice and I'm sure that you will love it. Don't forget to post your impressions of quattro - you have had similar cars without and with.

istate75 - very nice spec, when do you take delivery?

Yeh I know what you mean about 3.0 ukgroucho, but 2.0 just fits better with my needs and driving.
It's hard enough nowadays trying to keep a clean license and a 3.0 would not help me!.
Finding this 2.0 very refined and plenty fast enough for me, quattro not really that noticable at the mo, lack of torque steer is nice though!
Thanks all for the nice comments, chuffed to bits with it.

I ordered it last weekend and have been told delivery will be late December, mainly because of the exclusive paint, so I will probably get them to hold onto it until early Jan so I get a 2017 registered car

I got a discount of just under £12k, so am paying just shy of £44k
