Im sure I will be sooner or later. . .
The car is an A7 Sportback 3.0 TDi Quattro S-Line (7 speed S-Tronic)
its in Daytona Grey Pearl Paint with Black Leather Interior, Folding Mirrors, Bose Surround Sound System, Technology package which includes; MMI navigation – High, MMI Touch, Head-up display, Mobile telephone preparation – High with online services. Im gonna connect it to an Orange "single number" package and put a second sim card they provide into the car sim slot and that gives me google weather and mapping on the sat nav, the car becomes a wifi hot spot for up to 8 devices, plus when you turn the mobile off it transfers all settings to the car sim.. . . . . god knows how i'm going to find time to drive it with all this stuff going on LOL

Heres what it should look like:
