Default Out of curiousity

I am going in for a oil change next week, do you guys think it would be possible to ask the service consultant for a Q7 demo car as a loaner?

Default Q7 is pretty darn nice

Afretes (brand specialist from Audi) brought out a Q7 4.2 to a meet and a few of us test drove it. It does feel heavy as it is a SUV but that engine sound was gorgeous, nice sound at low RPM and a nice mechanical whine at higher RPM. Interior is top notch of course.

Default Doesn't hurt to ask!

Our Touareg is in the shop for some warranty work and they gave us a Cayman loaner which has been a lot of fun. We've had it almost a week now.

It helps to be on good terms with the service writers - they have ways of making things happen (I didn't even ask for the Cayman).

If they have a Q7 in their loaner fleet they may just let you take it.

Default Just ask. My dealership lets me drive anything I want without hesitation. Good guys!

I took my car in for its 5k service on a Saturday. I had my wife and two kids with me and asked for a shuttle to the Mall or something. My service guy said he was sorry, but didn't have Saturday shuttle service. So he did the next best thing; he gave my an A6 with 27 miles on it to drive around. =)

By the way, I was lucky enough to drive a Q7 last May. Very impressive for an SUV. The interior is awesome and sound of the motor is something special.

Default One time i got an A8 with 12 miles on the ODO, so I don't see why they wouldn't

Let you borrow a Q7...just gotta ask.
