Audi Q7 New Build Delays

[AndyHCZ]

I have an SQ7 Vorsprung on order with a build date of next week, however the dealer has just told me that this has been delayed be 3-4 months now and I would be looking at delivery in April 2018.

The email from the dealer claims that all Q7 builds have been pushed back several months.

Does anyone know if this is true? I'm sceptical about what I've been told as the Audi UK tracker shows my order as being placed 2 weeks ago, even though it was actually placed with the dealer nearly 2 months ago.

Thanks

mmmm im interested in any news on this too - i have a one on order also - been about 3 weeks.

Long story short, the dealer lied to me.

I placed the order based on a build slot they claimed they had, but when speaking to Audi UK they never had that build slot associated with my order.

Audi UK said there were a lot of orders, but no production delays. They were not happy that a dealer was lying about production issues (to cover a lie told to me) and were going to raise this with the dealer principal.

Have they offered you a courtesy car in the meantime?

No courtesy car offered, but I am thinking of cancelling my order. I've had the run around enough times now.
