Hi,

I finally have an order number from Audi and track my order. The car is the S4 Avant MY18 so no options added.

Looking at the tracker I can see the following -

Order date -24/04/17
Current stage - preparation
Construction will begin - 12th June 2017

based on the above does anyone have an idea of when I could expect delivery? ...I am getting impatient already!!!
Early July as a guess

Going off how the S5s came through (and that was in the chaos leading up to the 1st of April) they took just under a month to a month to get to customer from leaving the factory, and they were leaving the factory around their alleged build date rather than starting production. You will probably find your tracker will change to in build on something like the 7th if they were anything to go by

Do you only get these order numbers of you order direct with Audi, or can any lease company provide them?

I got one from them pretty quickly.

They also came back today asking for bank statements and payslips. Has anyone else had anything similar?

Anyone else having trouble with the Audi tracker? For the past few days I haven't been able to check the current status, I just get a "we are running maintenance" type message.
I know nothing will have actually changed...but there is something satisfying in being able to check 300 times a day

As mentioned on the best leases thread, i've ordered an s4! Went for the optional 19s and VC. Wanted the folding mirrors but had to stop myself adding any other things!

Quite excited, I've also managed to get my order number and also build week, which is apparently 10th July.

As above though, the tracker is down for maintenance so can't add the order to my account or check the progress yet!

The waiting commences biggrin

Haha I seem to be looking forward to this one more than other cars, possibly to do with the fact I've not seen one in the metal, let alone driven one!

They reckon it will be roughly 4 weeks after build week, so mid Aug maybe, though I'm expecting sep onwards to be honest...

You maybe ought to just make sure you arent being ripped off with them alloys, MY18 have the 19" as standard and it swaps to MY18 around that time. They may be making you pay for something that is standard.

It's the 19 inch multispoke wheels that are standard on MY 18, and I'm not a fan, so it's the v style I went with

Ah cool, I just wanted to be sure you weren't getting ripped off! Personally I like all the wheels other than the MY17 standard 18s which are awful IMO.

Yep, still down....

So much for a couple of days "maintenance".

I know. It hasn't stopped me checking a couple of times a day (my slightly unhealthy obsession). I wrote to Audi to ask what was going on but didn't get a response....the reality is nothing will have changed on the tracker my build week will still be 12th June etc....
