As one of Britain’s largest Audi dealers we pride ourselves on offering the best service to you at all times. Please read the enclosed information carefully, as it will help you to understand the communication process that leads up to the delivery of your new Audi or Approved Used Audi. Since we are governed by the Audi Factory system we cannot promise an exact delivery date at the outset of your order. However, as we go through the order and build process we will be able to establish that date for you. •Your order •Delivery •Accessories •Part exchange •Payment terms •Insurance •Registration transfers •Contact us We will keep you informed of the progress of your order using the following communication system, which can be forwarded to you by e-mail or post. www.northeastaudi.co.uk Factory order When you order a car directly from the factory it usually takes ten to twelve weeks for the car to be delivered to us. Certain products that currently have longer lead times may take slightly longer to be delivered to us. Please refer to your Account Manager if you have any questions regarding this. Production confirmation This tells you when your car has been confirmed for production. It should generally be sent to you 3 weeks before your car is actually built. It is at this point that we will be able to provide a fairly accurate date of delivery of your vehicle. On ship This means your car is currently being shipped to the UK and is now generally only 7 to 10 days away from arrival at our Vehicle Preparation Centre. Arrival Your car has arrived at our Vehicle Preparation Centre. This communication helps set a firm date for you to collect your car; this is generally 3 to 4 working days after arrival to allow time for Pre-Delivery Inspection and preparatory work. If you have not already done so you may wish to consider the addition of Audi Accessories as these can still be fitted at this stage. Note New car orders that can be fulfilled from national stocks in UK storage areas will usually arrive at our Vehicle Preparation Centre within 4 to 6 working days of order. Dealer transfer car delivery will be individually agreed and depend on how quickly we can arrange to collect the car from the other dealer. For cars already en route, the above communication process will start at the relevant stage in the delivery process.

CABRIOLET www.northeastaudi.co.uk Insurance cover notes All cars purchased must leave our premises with a Road Fund Licence. We therefore need an original cover note from your insurance company. The note must either state that you have comprehensive insurance for a motor vehicle or have the correct registration of your new vehicle recorded on it. The start date of the insurance should be no later than the proposed delivery date and the cover note should be in our hands no later than 48 hours prior to delivery. For new cars being registered for the first time in the UK, the Vehicle Licensing Office requires us to fill in a VRC form. This confirms a) to whom the car is being registered: b) that we have seen an original insurance document; c) that the form has been signed by the customer. We will ask you to sign this prior to delivery. Retention/Cherished registration transfers Due to the inconsistent service we receive from our Local Vehicle Licensing Office (VRO) we cannot take the responsibility for delays in cherished registration transfers. We will process the paperwork for you but you must allow at least 10 days for the VRO to complete the transaction. Note Due to restrictions on the level of service provided by the Vehicle Licensing Office it may not be possible to process cherished transfers towards month ends. You will appreciate this situation is completely out of our control. Consequently, should a cherished transfer not be completed by a month end we must ask you to take delivery of your new car on a normal registration and accept the transfer of your cherished number at a later date. •Your order •Delivery •Accessories •Part exchange •Payment terms •Insurance •Registration transfers •Contact us www.northeastaudi.co.uk North East Audi Centres: Newcastle Audi Scotswood Road, Newcastle Tel: (0191) 226 1144. e-mail: [email protected] Teesside Audi Brooklime Avenue, Stockton on Tees Tel: (01642) 603444. e-mail: [email protected] Tyneside Audi Silverlink Park, Wallsend Tel: (0191) 289 6200. e-mail: [email protected] •Your order •Delivery •Accessories •Part exchange •Payment terms •Insurance •Registration transfers •Contact us Wearside Audi Stadium Way, Sunderland Tel: (0191) 564 5600. e-mail: [email protected] www.northeastaudi.co.uk
