I know of a black one down here for sale.

I'll pick it up for you and drop it off at Exeter to then be wrapped in White.

Sorted.

Pretty sure most of them were pumped out to the dealer network as a fixed (low) spec. I had one as a loan car while my S5 was in for repair. It wasn't anything to write home about

Whilst you're waiting for something that regrettably may not happen, why not indulge yourself in a non-Edition 21 white A8 D4 3.0tdi?

I recently bought an A8 D4 3.0tdi Sport Executive in Ibis White and it's a wonderful car.
It doesn't have a high-spec but it still has 21" "5-arm Rotor" wheels, BOSE, sports steering wheel, LED headlights with high-beam assist, 22-way sports seats, and 360 degree Audi parking system advanced with "birds-eye view".

I'd rather have something in the garage to admire and drive whilst waiting for my unicorn. Especially if I'd sold my main car.

https://www.donedeal.ie/view/25785762 Audi A8 3.0 TDI Sport Quattro 258Bhp Executive Sp

€8K approx VRT rebate should apply if exported to the UK
Would probably end up costing you £18K sterling approx.
Not sure how that compares with similar for sale in the UK.

Originally a UK car means clocks are in miles etc.
Nice quilted leather, red calipers are love it or hate it
