source for factory mats

[wolff at turboquattro.com]

My VW dealer just orders the mats from Lloyds. Unless the matts for the 200
have recently gone NLA you should be able to get them to order them. Try a
different dealer. The difference is that from a VW or Audi dealer you get 4
rings and from Blau (you used) to get "quattro" embroidered on them. My last
set even came with the grey rubber caps for the orange posts.

Uh, oh... here's the reason for your problem:

NOTE: Lloyd's is currently under litigation regarding the useage of
copyrighted logos on their floor mats.  Until further notice, all floor mats
will be the color of your choice, but without any embroidery.  Thank you for
your cooperation.

I would still try a different VW/Audi dealer for the 4 rings logo mats.
HTH,
Wolff
