Yeah couple of us went, the chap who organised it had been told by the dealer they would set aside parking spaces so we could all park together and get some pics, but like most dealer promises it didnt happen However the organiser did manage to get pictures of most of the cars that attended albeit stand alone and they are on here

http://www.audi-sport.net/vb/scotlan...vent-here.html

I believe the grey/silver RS4 Avant pushes out upwards of 740 bhp

A good day and met some nice folk but cant help feeling the dealer could have made some effort particularly after making promises to the organisers.

That's a shame that they didn't organize the space that they said they would, but not a surprise as they don't often take clubs that seriously, which amazes me when you think how much promotion of the brand and brand loyalty goes on in such places - Audi head office would probably be a bit more disturbed by that I guess.

Swindon Audi have just moved to their new larger location in Swindon so I will see how much space they have,


New Swindon Audi Centre NOW OPEN

The new 'terminal style' building is the biggest car centre in the area, boasting a 17 car showroom and a 20 bay PDI workshop facility. The new site will accommodate both new and approved used Audi's and will increase used car display from 24 to 80.

Bob McGarva, Head of Business at Swindon Audi, said: "We have outgrown the previous Frankland Road site. Moving to the new location will enable us to showcase the full range of Audi products and services and provide our customers with the full Audi experience.

With the brand new state-of-the-art site, we will also be looking to increase our workforce, bringing new jobs to the area"


but the only dealership that I know would make an awesome meet is West London Audi which is the largest dealership/building/facilities in the world currently and would make a fab meet place

Surprised to hear that the Dealers are not very "Club Friendly" in your side of the World.....

They are very pro "Clubs" in our parts which benefits all concerned....
