Just one query:

You say it was bought in December 2001, but these weren't released until Feb/March 2002 according to this:

Could you effectively buy ahead of release?

May have been a pre-order - I'm sure Audi will have been marketing it ahead of release. Doubt there's many Avus/mauve leather combos that aren't Final Editions, probably none in fact lol. I guess if if was a Christmas present you'd be able to wrap the receipt and that'd have to do till the car showed up a few months later. The V5c will confirm registration date relative to order date
