Hi

I have had a couple of cars from Hitchin Audi - then a gap of about 10 years whilst I set a business up and couldn't afford one. Selling my TT mk1 was tough.

Literally walking in saying "sell me a car" and getting no response sent me elsewhere - the nearest one !

Hatfield Audi.

Steven the sales manager I have to tip my hat to - great bloke. Very keen and knowledgeable.

So... That's where the S3 came from and so the RS3 also.

I'm in Stevenage.

I need to see that Nardo now before I make an expensive mistake

I've heard nothing but good things about Hatfield. When I started looking at mk2's, called in there as they had a couple of lovely mk1's for sale. A black one and a red one.

I'm in Watford so got a few good ones around here. Local one is good eye candy coz of the amount of R8's usually parked outside.

Hopefully you'll love the nardo grey, is so unusual that I haven't seen it on another model or mark.

One for Roy.

Black and grey.... This is what mine should look like
Gone for the dynamic as I do wanna here those crackles and pops.

There's a nardo grey RS3 sitting out back of hitchin Audi waiting to be picked up on the 1st September. Did you order from there?
Go and have a nosy though. Had a good look round the outside on Monday. Looks great up close

Glad you liked it ;-) the mrs says hope you didn't lean on the windows though lol

It's going to be transported up north soon to be professionally detailed and glass coated. We will then drive it back down.

Which sales person did you deal with on yours?

S4ory,

 

Take a look in your local Ford dealer, there are tons of Nardo lookalike coloured cars in there 

 

Chose another colour before you regret it ,,,,,,,

[Chungster]

Ford had a nardo looking Focus ST Wagon on display at Geneva, and Seat have Dynamic Grey which is also similar.

The colour will be the new black!!'

[Roy]

I bet that looked really nice too

Lol nah I didn't I promise.

Used to deal with Stuart til he moved on, dealing with Charlie now. He knows what I want and knows that I don't need to hear the usual speel.
How about yourself? Have you bought any other cars from there?

[s40rey]

Well, I've seen it and it confirms my decision

Unusual and cool choice:

you will probably get it a few weeks earlier as it does not need a top coat of paint ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, so prob BW41

[s40rey]

You really do loathe that colour don't you Roy ??

I'll be painting my front door and garage door to match ; )

[Pat]

Nardo it the same colour as most of us MkI owners hair and beards lol.... So it's colour therefore is distinguished, venerable, decorous, revered, esteemed and noble with defined maturity lol

Hitchin Audi as per the tip from Metroline.

There's a red one too.

I asked if I could have a look and they obliged - so a big thanks to them.

As long as that's all she got out Pat, there are other forums for those sort of things

Cool.

Did the Nardo car look washed or not to you? (We've told them to not wash it as it's going to a detailer.).

Looks like from your pic they've still not changed the reg plates to the GB spec ones either grrr.

Saturday night mate anything goes wi us two.....me on t'forum Anne lay there looking up big words......hedonistic crazy people

[s40rey]

Chungster -

It was right out the back. I asked the guy if I could look, and I really had a quick glance that was it.

Any further (peering through windows etc) would have been rude I feel as it someone else's pride & joy (yours ?)

So.... I can't really say... Can't see any point washing it only for it to sit there getting covered in Saharan sand ?

If you want the full size photo pm me and I can mail it you.

I avoided the reg plate for obvious reasons.

Thanks for the comments

I'm just going on the following with Nardo;

1. Gut instinct. The minute I saw it I thought "yessss"

2. Although I love the blue of my S3 I've been disappointed by its durability. Seems to show scratches very easily.

3. In my view... There's something "cool" in having a pocket rocket with a very plain paint finish. Let's face it - almost every car is metallic now (never used to be). So to have a reasonably expensive car that's a plain paint finish is going the opposite of most people. I like that

Still haven't seen a Nardo in the flesh yet.... I think Peterborough have one... Can I be bothered to go up there ? Nope.
