New F-types on transporter in Glasgow

[dezzy]

Saw this on the M77 tonight, I assume heading for Taggarts compound near Darnley. Anyone on here ordered either of these? Silver one had an R Dynamic badge. The black one had a fixed spoiler and the new model numbering with "P380" on the back. Not seen that yet.





Love the wheels on the black one!

P. S. I was driving, wife took the photos. So I wasn't breaking the law!

Nice, but i do hate the new badging.

P for Petrol and 380 for HP - too clinical.

Exactly my point .. yes another rant

They should stop F****** around with naming conventions and trim badges for Christ sake

.... SORT THE QUALITY OUT AND GIVE US fICKING APPLE CAR PLAY AND GET THE ITCP TO WORK ...

do I have to go to the factory and do every thing myself !!! ..

Yeah, I agree. Really didn't look right with the "P380" badge on the back. I know it sounds really silly because it's just a badge, but it kinda took away from the class of the car I think.

seems to be no center wheel caps on the black one, are they not on during transport. If its an R dynamic model , i think the side vents say R dynamic too.

Hi

They don't fit them in transport mode ,, when they are delivered they fit them . see a picture of mine when it was delivered

stunning kaspa, surprised they don't come with a protective transport cover, if that was a wet transport day, your car or anyone car would be all road debris, especially at the front of the lorry trailer as yours was, not great for the paintwork.

Doesn't really matter how they are transported as when they arrive at the dealers, their detailers will get to work introducing more scratches & swirls to the paintwork.
Do not let the dealership prepare your car. I always tell them to leave the car as it comes off the transporter, don't even take off any protective wrapping & I organize my detailer to pick up the car & detail it. I find Gtechniq products work for me outside, inside leather, wheels & glass usually takes about 3 days but well worth it
Some people don't care how they receive their car, probably the one's who use car washes as they will give even more scratches. I am not knocking them, each to their own :shock:

I'm waiting on mine beginning of March but it's in a deep grey. The wheels are the same as the black one though. Supposed to be coming in Taggarts in Glasgow compound imminently. Thanks for the advice all regarding the swirls etc. I'm getting the dealership to deliver to a detailer before I pick up. Asked dealership to do NO prep

 

[dezzy]

It was dark so may have been grey rather than black. Might be yours after all.

I'm the same. Didn't let the dealer touch the car.

If could be worse! , Audi are changing again too. Some sort of HP linked number. Crazy.
30 = 109-122bhp
35 = 148-161bhp
40 = 168-201bhp
45 = 227-248bhp
50 = 282-308bhp
55 = 245-329bhp
60 = 429-456bhp
70 = 536bhp+

So For example, an Audi Q2 with the 114bhp 1.0-litre petrol engine and it will be badged Q2 30 TFSI, while the Q7 with a 3.0-litre 268bhp diesel engine will be badged Q7 50 TDI. The forthcoming A8 with the 3.0-litre 282bhp diesel engine will be badged Audi A8 50 TDI, while the same car with a 3.0-litre 335bhp petrol engine will be badged Audi A8 55 TFSI
