I'd originally ordered an 8v in Sepang, but had to cancel the order. Still love Sepang, but personally think Ara is even nicer.

In August last year I took delivery of one in Glacier White. At the time I was pretty much indifferent to Glacier, but I've come to love it and really think it suits the '3.

If I buy another Audi (which is in the balance because of their after sales service) I would, without doubt, go exclusive paint and spec Merlin.

My question to you guys is; did you consider any other colour option to the one you bought and which colour would you consider for your next purchase?

When ordering mine I was toying with Sepang blue or Catalunya red. Stuck with my gut and do not regret it.

Merlin or the deep red Coling has here are fantastic colours for me and would definitely consider them for a next purchase.

Merlin :)

My fav colour !


Mine too mate. Forum member Big Pete posted some pics of his R8 recently and it looks the business.

I've seen a couple of RS6's and a new TTRS in merlin and the more I see it the more I like it.

I wouldn't go '3 again, but the new RS4 when it's released in merlin - just maybe.

I had a pair of merlin coloured flared trousers when I was younger! Have grown out of this colour.

Yes, Jct 8 at Reigate - then it all went Wacky Races and **** Dastardly in his recently acquired S7 nailed it.

We hit the M4 and floored it, but unfortunately Dastardly couldn't slow down 30 odd feet (probably not that long) of S7 in time to make the Reading meeting point.

Luckily he hit the brakes hard just after the Reading turn and just managed to slow down sufficiently to exit at Chieveley for the next meeting point.

Fond memories and can't wait for the Fest this year - should be a cracker.
