They dont go to germany. The boat goes santander then setubal in portugal and then straight to the uk

Hi guys/gals, I need to fill in a formto enable me to take it abroad on the company scheme but to do so I need to know the car registration. At what point in the process is the car registered and given a reg no? My Gti is on stage 5 'left the factory' currently.

The need is time critical as if I'm ...

Hey everybody,

Don't want to hijack the thread but I have a new gti, 3dr White. Cracking car! Done some stuff this weekend including black roof and mirrors, metal plates and a Volkswagen Motorsport badge. Going to fit led fog lights soon as I think the standard ones look naff with the led main ...

Had the car 2 days and now first mod done. Installed a dash cam. I went with the A118c and the nextbase hardwire kit. The only wire showing is the one that goes into the cam from the headlining. The camera itself is really small and pretty much fully hidden behind the rear view mirror. Its not got ...

They said to me that it can take upto a week to come through customs at the uk port

Hmmm... I work in shipping and get quite a few cars coming though us, no hold up generally unless they're coming from outside the EU and most of the time they're pre-Customs cleared anyway.

Sent from my LG ...

So I'm getting a lot of conflicting info from my dealer and order tracker.

My dealer says that my car will be ready Mid-May, early-may at the soonest. (What does that even mean...)

My tracker says that the car will be ready in 7 days from now as it has just arrived in the UK.

Has anyone else had ...

Another quick one of mine

Making me more excited for my black 3dr on its way.

Does anyone know what the average time is between build week and delivery to the dealership for 3dr manuals?

My buildweek is w/c 25th April (next week) but my dealer told me to ...

It goes thru Portugal? Weird....

When did you order yours? I waited about 4 months for mine last year. Has that situation improved?

Think it just goes to portugal to pick up from the factory there then head to the uk

Ordered mines the start of february so seems to of improved a wee bit. Cant ...

Just been told that my GTI is on the city of amsterdam cargo ship which is headed from santander to portugal then on to the UK

So if anyone has had there build week the last week or so theres a good chance it could be on there too.

Grr looks like more delays. Been told by the dealer it would arrive 2nd week of april. Asked VW and they said its on its way from Santander to Emden so could be another 6-8 weeks. Seems a bit of a trek by rail across europe

Anyone know if the gti's are shipped from santander or sometimes transported to setubal first? Trying to keep a look out on marine traffic. Cheers

Thought I would join the waiting room. Mines is currently sitting at the port to be assigned a ship. Wish it would hurry up, im like a kid waiting for xmas now
