Re: New GTI + delivery

Had a lovely app update and email come through today, approx. 1hr ago... "Your car has been built and has left the factory." aka Stage 5! :D My build week was w/c 11th February (Monday) but my retailer has said it was actually wrong, that on their system it was w/c 4th February (can't comp...

Re: New GTI + delivery

I have been at my local VW dealership to pay for my hire car, and was finally given a build week! It does not show yet on the VW app but they have it on their system already. :) Car was ordered on April 14th 2018, and given Build Week 6 (of 2019). This can go up and down by around 3 weeks, and then ...

I ordered on the 12th January 2018. Madness.
Dreading to see mine, when I get it... Ordered in April. Let’s hope Brexit won’t have any impact on the deliveries around end of March!

Re: New GTI + delivery

So for the third time in 11 months I've just had a notification that my car has gone to stage 2 at the factory. Is it stuck on repeat?! I have a image of the South African factory and its staff akin to headless chickens. I had the exact text come through earlier as well, twice now - once back in Oc...

Re: New GTI + delivery

Interesting. I didn't get much out of VW chat the other day apart from talk to your retailer. Think that they were having a bad day. Sunroof wasn't a delaying factor last time I found. Though now it has to contend with the WLTP debacle so possibly an issue, however pano roof models are out there. T...

Re: New GTI + delivery

Just spoke with the VW Live Chat. They have now confirmed the first / earliest Retail delivery for the Polo GTI+ is going to be Week 1 of 2019. I then asked them about order allocation and was told it will be based on availability and order date - which means some options might be pushed back depend...

Re: New GTI + delivery

Small update to my previous post regarding this horrendous delay! The dealership will part exchange my current car and hire me one of their cars until around December. As it has not yet been 8-9 months since my order (April), the dealership can not provide me with a free courtesy car but once it get...

Re: New GTI + delivery

get your current insurer to process a vehicle substitution - delete your existing car from your policy and replace it with your new car. That’s the main problem. My current car can be insured with lots of different insurance companies, the Polo not so much. With only 2yrs driving experience, 2yrs N...

Re: New GTI + delivery

Made an account just to post this, after reading more into the damned delay... Ordered the Polo GTI+ with Brescia alloys and Winter Pack. This was back in April, Week 15. My estimated delivery date was set to end of September - giving them around 5.5 months - as that’s when my insurance runs out on ...
