Now I have driven my car for almost a month there is now the issue if I re-ordered the same vehicle what would I change.
Adaptive lights- Very Good, no change.
S-line (-30) suspension- Looks the Biz with the 18 inch wheels, No Change.
Exec Pack- Excellent, No Change.
S-line Package- Superb aggressive looks, No Change.
Hill-Hold- Regret not having it fitted, Would Change.
Rear Park Sensors- I would DEFINETELY! Change to the front as well, as those little pointy bits on the spoiler are just asking to be kerbed!
On the whole I like what has been delivered I would just tweek it a bit:D.

Totally agree. I can't wait to get the sensors as we've really missed them.
I have Hold Assist and won't have it in the future. I guess it's one less button to press :(
...just remembered that although we have the Sport suspension (20mm drop) I still fancy it a bit softer sometimes so opting for the dynamic I hope will be a good choice. It seems fine on the test drive but time will tell.

Front and rear parking sensors are a must, yes. I'd not pay more for the camera, though, personally.
Hill Hold I don't see the point of (discussed before) as I'll be in an auto. and I just let it 'hang' / creep...
I agonised over the 30mm / 20mm thing and eventually I went for the 20mm for two reasons (three, really)... 1) I asked what my 54 reg. Sport would have had and Audi couldn't tell me (I bet someone on here could), so I played it safe as I have some speed-mountains on my road that that old A4 made quite jarring, 2) I have a bad back, boo-hoo!, and this SLK is really frikking low at the moment, so something a bit higher is probably sensible, and, finally, 3) I was still unconvinced about the ride quality overall - although Audi themselve and many on here have convinced me it is better in the B8 than what I had, B6 was it?
Anyway... all that damper stuff I would like... but a bit expensive I thought. Did I think it was all a bit gimmicky too? Maybe. Most peeved about the button real estate that it leaves blank! Hate that...
I was thinking of auto-headlight full beam dippers. Maybe I missed out there.
I was thinking of rear heated seats too... only a bit more to have them.
I was thinking of the different wheels you can choose, instead of 5-spoke. Ah, well.
All too late now... arrives at dealer tomorrow.
