Was a bit miffed it didn't come with folding mirrors, but having checked the option codes it comes with '6XF Exterior mirrors –
heated, electrically adjustable, electrically folding and memory function. Only in combination with front electric
seats (PV3) or Comfort seats (PS8)'

6XL is the £280 optional one that adds the auto dimming.

Thats interesting -- where did you see 6XF listed?

The spec PDF has got:

6XE - Heated and electrically adjustable and folding, with automatic kerb-view function
6XL - Heated, electrically adjustable, electrically folding and auto-dimming, with automatic kerb-view function

My build sheet pdf has 6XF listed which is the same as 6XE but for electric memory seats. If I change to the optional ones it adds 6XL in replacement of 6XF

Unsure on the maintenance pack myself, is it worth 13.87 a month (£332.88 over term)?

Quoted:

A6 Avant Black Edition
Ibis White
S Line Suspension
5k Mileage
180 fees


Maintenance Pack
1+23 @ £265.49
excess mileage 17.16ppm

Without Maintenance Pack
1+23 @ £251.62
excess mileage 13.68ppm

I enquired through Gbv yesterday for the £251.62 deal, had no response so presume these are deals are done.

Try 1st Choice, they matched my GBV quote and were much lower pressure to deal with.

The chap at GBV said he had 4 slots left on Wednesday.... whether that's true or not i don't know.

Those with the tech pack in the bag, did you request the smartphone connection interface wotsits? Allowing iPhone and android icons to appear on the mmi?

Audi sales team seems to think that Apple CarPlay is not available on the A6 even with tech pack as old Skool mmi, where do they get trained from? If it was t available, why do they have an option for it on the config tool @ 250£?

That's an extra £250 I believe. - ah you edited while I was typing

How much extra are people paying for the Tech Pack?

When I had a quote for the saloon with and without it was £18pm more so £468 over the term on 3+23. I presume similar for the Avant I ordered.

Can the android / iPhone functionality be coded in ? Or is it hardware?

[1988alz]

9+23

It’s hardware in so much it’s only for 2017 on models, but yes you can have it activated. A bit like most cars the price is due to having to pay Apple and Google a fee for activation https://shops.audi.com/en_GB/web/zubehoer/p/retrof...

Might be a silly question, but I take it you can still stream music via Bluetooth with the standard MMI?

Yes, BT streaming is included - will also control next track etc and passes song data and cover art too iirc. tbh I wouldn't use the CarPlay much anyway as you have to connect the phone by USB.

I quite like the look of the A6 "Hearse" edition Avant. I took one for a test drive, drove along the motorway, and was pulled over and ticketed by the police for undertaking.

Joking aside, they look great in the flesh.

Very good

They do look good in the flesh and the lights are very nice. The only thing I'm not keen on is the strobing indicators. They look a bit 'fruit machine' to me. I wonder can you change them in the settings so that they just blink?

Build sheet from Audi website or build sheet from your lease company?

[court]

From Audi. I wouldn’t trust a broker to know the correct spec.



Also, if you look at the 2018MY UK brochure it also states the mirrors fold on S-Line and BE



See the 2017MY brochure below - 6XE is folding for non memory seats, 6XF folding for memory seats, 6XL folding with dimming for memory seats. Also note the price differential SE Exec has to pay £235 to get folding and £515 have folding/dimming. S-Line/BE get folding standard so have to pay £280 to get dimming. The same £280 to get dimming on the 2018 model.
