Default New Dakar Beige!

So, my wife finally picked up her A3 this week. It's Dakar Beige with beige interior, premium, cold weather, and open sky. Seems we're an all-Audi family now. I haven't put on the front plate holder yet (NY)... maybe I'll wait for that fix-it ticket....

Default Veddy Nooice! That beige interior looks like mine! ;)

Nice color. That must be a pretty rare color.

Love it! It was one of the 4 colours I was looking for when I got mine.

Default Any issues keeping the interior clean?

That was my only concern - seems like small things will be really obvious on such a light interior.

Default I've been veeery careful. :) Have my kids take their shoes off when they sit in their car seats.:)

So far, so good. Some spots on the floor mat on passenger side, but haven't really tried to get them out yet.

The dead pedal gets dirt, but that's easily cleaned.

Scotchgarded the heck out of light grey carpet and mats. Seems fine.

Default Put some Lamin-X on the lower part of the doors...

Makes cleaning the scuff marks from your shoes MUCH easier. No matter how hard you try, you will eventually hit the door with your foot upon entry / exit.<ul><li><a href="http://www.lamin-x.com/ClearProtection.html">Lamin-X</a></li></ul>

Love how they use a C5 A6 for the cloudy lens example;-)
