UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

If I was getting a Mini I'd go with a nearly new one - the initial depreciation on them is hideous. We considered a Mini instead of the Polo (and Ibiza). Years ago they had great residuals, but it seems that's not the case now. We looked around the new and used ones. Not at all keen on the 5 door v...

I cancelled mine on Friday after an 8month wait and the last (loose) update being ‘we expect a build of week 19’ (delivery Aug/Sept). I walked in to Dick Lovett Mini at 5pm Friday, ordered a Cooper Sport with tons of extras - had a delivery date of March 1st in less than 24 hours. Amazing how quickl...

my dealer has lent me a new polo until mine arrives in March. I've had it a month already. Definitely worth an ask before cancelling. Rooneys - I've done that, I asked the lease company who asked the retailer and was told bluntly that VW UK would not be supporting anyone delayed due to WLTP as it w...

Rooneys - I've done that, I asked the lease company who asked the retailer and was told bluntly that VW UK would not be supporting anyone delayed due to WLTP as it wasn't 'their' fault. That statement was the nail in the coffin for me really - I even offered to pay to use a demo or anything that th...

Well, I've waited (granted - not as long as some!) but now the day has come and I have to give up. Following placing an order on May 24th for a GTI + with Brescias & DBP paint, I'm still waiting for a build date. Originally told Sept, then Jan and now I have been told an UNCONFIRMED build is lo...

In all seriousness if you are interested in a low mileage car mine might be for sale. As I said in other posts I am not enjoying the car as much as I would have thought and the lack of fuel economy doesn't suit my type of driving. If I was doing longer trips the fuel economy is ok but for what I us...

Does anyone in the South West (ish) area already have their GTI + ?

I ordered at the end of January and still don’t have a build date, so in comparison I think you’ve got a long way to go yet. Though today I received a txt message and an notification from the app that my order has progressed to stage 2, which ironically is where it’s been since February Blimey that...

The wait has almost gotten the better of me and I am close to canceling. I ordered May 24th (so approx 28weeks wait so far) and I still don’t have a build date.

Has anyone in the UK actually taken delivery of their GTI + yet? There have been some comments on here that seem to point that way but can anyone actually confirm? I’m only interested in the GTI + not the standard GTI model. My delivery date is indicated as mid Jan currently but has not been confirm...

I've been told by VW that the GTI + missed the emissions test in April and that another one won't be held until October. My build time is 32 weeks (taking the emissions test in to account). I would love to know if anyone with a delivery date of May/June actually gets their car!
