Been a while since I posted!
Well the time has come for me to sell my beloved gti mk5!
I have been approved for the rs3 however the deal i am being offered is way more than i had hoped for. Originally i was quoted £440 including vat on 10k miles 6 months deposit upfront on a 2 year lease however i have now been told by my broker that audi has hiked up the prices since getting in touch with dealers its now £501 including vat must add this is for metallic paint
Any ideas on if i should wait it out till prices drop as i know the wait time is 12 weeks and they are possibly taking advantage of the high demand?!
Any advice much appreciated!

Ouch !, I wouldn't pay that. Would you not be better to wait till a few come up second hand or ex demo and save yourself a huge amount ?, you pay through the nose to buy brand new. Remember 20% is vat so the dealer doesn't even see that. So it's worth 20% less the moment you sign the check !. Get a ex demo if you want a pretty much brand new one

f*ck me thats a chunk of money. IMO not worth 500PM.

Yeah i may consider waiting, i was also offered a mk7 r
Tornado Red: £285+vat and Lapiz Blue £298+vat. Both 6+23, 10k pa and DSG 5dr. We also have 2 manual one's in red (£270+vat) and black (£282+vat)

If i were leasing a MK7, i would get manual. DSG will have better resale, but that wont matter to you. Manual is cheaper.

Yikes! I'm sure Audi were doing lease deals on an S8 for a bit less than that. More car than most of us will ever need, but what a way to cruise around!
The R is a lot more reasonable at £300 and arguably just as good, point to point, despite being a cylinder and some ponies down.
