Travelling to Germany in a few weeks - Audi factory tour on my list of things to do.
Has anyone been there/done that? If so, how long does it take? Are advance reservations necessary, or can I just show up? Does it cost anything? Any other Audi-related sights to check out while over there (we're staying in Munich)? I vaguely recall people saying to check out the museum as well as the factory - are those two places next door to one another? Any value in writing down my VIN and bringing that along (maybe they keep vehicle-specific records or something)?
I'll be sure to take a lot of pictures. I'll be certain to drink a lot of hearty beer. :-p Now if only I were good at quickly learning foreign languages...

Go to the museum. Reservations are required for a factory tour.
You might be able to show up and hop on an existing tour, but I would call ahead.
Figure about 4-5 hours for the tour, museum, and gift shop. Its 45-55 minute train ride from Munich.

most europeans know english but
at least learn how to say thank you, excuse me, and do you speak english in german. Grab a book for the plane and try to learn a few simple phrases as well. They'll be a lot more receptive if you actually try to speak some german than expecting them to know english.
