Re: What's your Build Date? (Estimated or Confirmed)

HI Chris. When I collected Rocky last Friday my delaer told me about the IT changes within Volkswagen. He's had lots of fleet customers calling to try and get cars ordered before the system went offline. He told me there would be a couple of weeks where they could not check on cars etc. I agree with...

Re: Its finally here

Evenin all. I'm getting more used to the car and have done 800 miles now!!! I've been scrowling through the set up menu on the highline computer. In it there is a section for the passenger mirror. You tick it and it works. I've even worked out that you can reset it once it's in the tipped position a...

Its finally here

Well here it is, finally in the metal rather than nuts and bolts in a factory. All present and correct and even had the lead for my I phone!! The dealer was terrific and handed the car over well rather than just chucking th keys at me. I noticed that the N/S mirror tilts down when selecting reverse ...

Re: What's your Build Date? (Estimated or Confirmed)

I've just had a call from my dealer to say my baby arrived last Friday :) I can pick it up this Friday :) I was expecting at least another two week wait!

The waiting is nearly over now :clap:

Re: What's your Build Date? (Estimated or Confirmed)

Me again.

I've spoken with my dealer again today, Wolsey VW in Ipswich, and my car now has a scheduled build date of sometime in week 25. I'm likely to get my hands on her in mid to late July all being well. At least I know it's going to be build soonish!!

Martin.

Re: What's your Build Date? (Estimated or Confirmed)

Hi everyone. I spoke with my dealer on Friday and got an update. My GT is due to be in build during week 22 but is not showing as scheduled yet. I've ordered the DSG gearbox and apparently there is a delay on this gearbox at present. Demand is outstripping supply. My car could be two to three weeks ...
