"Is it me am I expecting too much "

Jeez, what a story! No, you are not expecting too much. Its a lot of money by any measure and cheap-suited, gel-haired, pointy-shoed spivs whose pay you are contributing to need to realise that. They would be (should be) living under the arches if it wasnt for people like you/us. You really ought to send that story (certainly the Audi bit) to Mt Konsberg (Audi UK CEO) who Sarg emailed successfully the other day. *See Annual meet - prizes thread (I think).

Well I am hoping the chain of events is reaching a good conclusion
The bmw credited my bank today
I have agreed terms on the Audi a8, really pleased with it too should be sat behind the wheel this Friday if all goes to plan.
Now just waiting for the other deposit to arrive which I am assured in in the post . Why they need to use a cheque in this day and age I will never know. But it keeps the money in their account I guess.
@ davids8 I can't point any fingers at Audi mate the dealer selling the a7 was a Merc dealer. I have only been to Audi to view a8 but even they haven't exactly seemed to want the business.
Anyway I am now so looking forward to getting myself back in an a8 after a two year break. All this new tech to try LED headlights sat nav linking to the gearbox I can't wait.
I will post up some pictures and first thoughts over this coming weekend
Cheers Glyn

Better still, bring it to the annual meet!

Congrats on your purchase, I can see myself in a D4 next, but those S8 prices need to drop a lot more first
