Loving the pictures - cheers guys. Keep them flowing

It looks like all the pics posted so far are glacier white. They all look metalic and so not Ibis white but still paints a picture

Nothing wrong with ibis white at all, when all clean it looks stunning imho. Had an S3 in ibis before, can’t beat lease free white lol

‘Lease free white’ haha. Brilliant. Be great if this was the actual name.

Think the only extra I've seen commented on was the flat bottom steering wheel for about another £5 a month.

I would have like the comfort and sound but not worth the extra money for 2 years. I asked about it as sometimes the price is the total cost ÷ term, other times it works as less as they then value to car at the end higher so you don't always pay full amount.

Comfort and sound would’ve made the deal too much

Flat bottom was the sweet spot as you’re going to be touching the wheel everytime you drive so thought it’d be worth the extra!

Flat bottom wheel was worth it so I went for that too. Also as its a Coupe and the price for the deal was already good, and I probably wont get another 2 door again I thought to go a bit wild with the Turbo Blue paint. Would probably never get it if I was buying the car but as it's a lease I thought why not!

Since it’s not here yet,

Anyone got an idea of which type of gap/what deposit protection we need and what the best site for it is?

ALA. Get a quote from its website but hunt around for discount codes. I got mine this year for 15% off from Honest John website. Was 20% two years ago. Typically it is 12% if there aren't the higher discount codes.

I highly recommend calling ALA for a personal quote and to discuss things. They are not sales commissioned people but they will email you a quote and then you can add your discount code.

I did mine last month and I remember discussing what I should put down as the value of the car. The P11D is £42k but the invoice price, once all the discounts and dealer incentives were applied, came to £27k for a facelift A5 Sportback S-Line 35 TDI

Ordered an s-line here with no extras in lease free white. Hoping it puts a smile on my face when it arrived as its replacing a vauxhall astra elite nav.

Currently expected March when the astra goes back so i hope delivery doesn’t run over.

Got my order number yesterday for the same car. March delivery ideal for me as that’s near when my v90 goes back.

We both must be lease deal hunters I remember the Astra’s being on a cracking deal at one point.

With Santander 3 month free Covid lease extension my Volvo is only costing me £270 a month average over 21 months. Not bad.

Yes mate, i remember the V90 deals with santander. Wasn’t they 18 month deals? Remember thinking its odd to see an 18 month as usually they do it in years.

It was the same time as the astra deals indeed. I went with the astra and a mate went with the v90 after i recommended it as he needed a bigger car.

Hopefully we both enjoy the a5 when it arrives mate.

Ive received my order number too but unfortunately the tracker audi app is down until 20th Oct apparently

It was an 18 month deal but when Covid hit they gave a 3 month payment holiday but also extended the lease by 3 months and increased the mileage pro rata meaning I get 21 months for the price of 18.

No idea why mate. Source is the app itself. I downloaded it to track my build but upon firing it up, states its under maintenance and should be live again on 20th Oct

Just had this...

"Just a quick update on your current order, we have good news – your vehicle now has a build slot of week 43, so November delivery is our estimate for your order now.

I’ll update you again in 1-2 weeks."

I said last week I was one of the first to order too but didn't get an email for week 44. So it looks like the emails have been sent out back to front (week 43 orders are getting emails AFTER week 44)
