The order forum might be a bit quite once the week 20 &
21 ers have all got their cars so I am trying to fill in the gaps.<?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" />

Who would like to join me in the week 25 ers? There must be
a few of us on this forum at the moment, so please post your details and let's
see who ends up with their car first.

I ordered mine Wednesday 25^th April from VW Leeds (Sytner Group)

Specification as follows:

High up!

Tornado Red

Red Dash

Grey-Salsa upholstery

Sound Pack

Full Size Spare

Luxury Mats

3
Year Service Package

Count me in idletony. Tornado red move up bmt with sound pack, spare wheel, all anthracite and black inside. I'll believe it when I see it!

Oops! Sorry Nick, looks like I have duplicated your post, I thought
nobody had made a posting on week 25, should teach me to read back through
older listings.<?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" />

Even so, at the moment it looks like thereare only three of
us that have declared build week 25 (does this make it an exclusive club?)

I'm going for a light blue High up! with:

Light blue dash
Grey-Beech Polka upholstery
Sensor pack
Spare wheel
Carpets
Mud flaps front and rear
Boot liner
Rear bumper protection film
Door sill trim (the cheaper one - part number 1S3 071 310)
I'm still umm-ing and ahh-ing over the Autoglym Life Shine. I like the idea, but not the price, so I'll have to see if my negligible negotiation skills can produce a more sensible price.

I like the sound of your combo Collas!

You will deffo have to post pics when it comes, sounds like it might be a bit of a one off!

In a good way!

 

[M5 SUT]

Hey Tony at least you got your post in the right part of the forum!

with a title to match the theme!

 

[yapmaul]

This is it then- week 25! Are we really the only three?

 

[idletony]

Looks like it, as nobody else has posted.I suppose its a 3-4 week wait from here, stiil seems like a long time, ah well patience is a vertue

 

[yapmaul]

Once I know it has actually been built I might start to relax a little . . .

 

[idletony]

It would be nice to get an email from the dealer next Monday to say its been built and its on its way to the docks.

 

[yapmaul]

I won't hold my breath!

 

[clowesa]

You may be in luck Tony. This was my timeline:
Build week 21 (w/c 21 May)

28thMay confirmation car on it's way to Emden

6th June confirmation caronship on it's way over

8th Juneconfirmation cardue to dock anytime

12th June confirmation car at Grimsby awaiting transporter

14th June confirmation car at VW Leeds and available to collect TODAY



And yapmaul, I hate to say this but knowing the car had been built made me even worse. I wanted phone calls every day to let me know exactly where the car was and how long it was going to take (very unreasonable of me). Luckily the salesman got his finger out and kept me updated all the time. Didn't make it go any quicker though.

 

[idletony]

Thanks for the timeline clowesa, so it looks like you received
yours 3 weeks from the build date, which means mine would probably be available
for collection 9^th July, just as I fly out to Munich on a business
trip, brilliant!!!!!<?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" />

Ah well, it should definitely be ready once I
return at the end of that week (hopefully), I think I will take a day off so
that I can spend the day just driving around.

I shall try to remain calm clowesa! I bet you're not too calm right now!!! Enjoy your car-looking forward to the location pics

For a fleeting time I was a week 25 !!

I started off as early June delivery, then week 26 production, then week 25 production and am now week 29 production - none of these dates being guaranteed !!


I do hate the VW system

That's such a shame Davidw

Easily pushed back so hopefully just as easy to push forward again

Hi davidw I know how u feel! I've been waiting nearly 2 months for a build week to be told I probably won't get my car until sep now! When did you order yours? And what have you gone for?

I ordered on the 3rd March and it is just a bmt move up with sound pack, MM, sensor and spare wheel in Tungsten silver.

Nothing too fancy !!

That's a long time, I hope you get it soon!
