Forget the no smoking Package nothing to be gained only lost i.e. a cigarette lighter whichcan be used as an other 12v socket and the ash traywhich isa plastic canisterwhich can beuse forstorage

Now that's interesting- I thought it replaced the ashtray and cigarette lighter with a 12v socket and a centre storage compartment?

 

[Sdadi]

Oops! I too ordered non smoking pack assuming the same...

 

[Sdadi]

Argic, as per my experience most dealers would't bother replying to mails or They simply give the list price. Best bet is to go and speak to them in person.

Check this thred on how they managed to get spme good discounts...

There seems to be a closed discussion on ashtray option...

So it seems non smoking pack -> no cup in cup holder.

Thank you Sdadi, I emailed my precise spec I wanted after several previous visits to the dealer, already have negotiated a 8.5% discount but told to email my precise requirements to the sales manager to see if they are able to increase the discount- I will certainly remove the non smoking package before I order.

The non-smoker package replaces the Cigarette lighter on the centre tunnel witha spring-loaded flap (marked "12V")over the socket where the cigarette lighter would have been - no additional socket is provided.

Of course, you do gain back the space for a cup as one of the cup-holders no longer has the lidded Ashtrayin one of the cup-holder sockets...

Hey ArgicWhat about a spare wheel at only £75 or you gonna rely on a tin of goo?Mal

Apparently they all come with a spare wheel now, unless you order Bose

 

[argic]

- and you would not believe the rows me and my wife had about the spare wheel, she would prefer more boot space, but I don't want to be stuck by the road in the rain, trying to pump expanding foam into a torn tyre

Ah you mean the storage locker for parking money. You can tell what it is for as it has four symbolic coins on the lid.

Seriously - go for the "smoking option" even if you never touch the evil weed -
1/it provides more flexibility of storage as the ashtray/cash bucket is removable,
2/ when you come to sell it will appeal to smokers as well as non-smokers.

Best check with Audi regarding spare wheel, cos to retro firt is EXPENSIVE!

Best check with Audi as to retro fit spare wheel is expensive!

I have gone for non-smoking pack as my commute to work is generally 2-3 hours each way, so have a selection of hot and cold beverages on the go - although now thinking the canister would have been good for the midget gems! I also opted for the tin of goo as having the extended boot space and have no intention of changing a wheel - not since the 80s!
