I ordered one from Audi Wimbledon but they don't seem to know when it will arrive or how much it will be. Does anyone have any info?

"The new biturbo, ten-cylinder super Avant - the eagerly awaited successor to the revered original RS 6 quattro of 2002 - will open for UK ordering from November for an OTR price expected to be in the region of £75,000. First deliveries will follow in spring 2008, and later that year a saloon variant will also become available."

Good friend of mine is on their sales team - are you speaking from experience or just web rumours?

I bought my S3 from them. Tooks months to get them to sort out all the things they said they would do before I picked it up. I am sure the sales team changes and things have improved but when I dealt with them they were useless. The only person who seemed to be able to get things done was their head of servicing who eventually got things sorted after I had to write a letter to Audi UK complaining about them.

The waiting list is being managed by Audi UK directly.

Once you have paid the dealer the £1500 deposit AUDI UK will call you directly to confirm your build slot and discuss spec available in relation to your order.

Apparently if the time they quote you is too far away you can cancel your order and ask for a refund.
