Anyone have a ballpark figure of how much a respray would cost? I'm assuming I'll need a full respray so that all body panels are matching?
I've just had my 57-plate Honda Civic resprayed as the lacquer was peeling. It cost about £150/panel so you're looking at well over £1000 sorry...
Found this forum as I'm seriously thinking of going for a Polo GTI as my next car. Have been looking through this topic (although I admit not all 82 pages!) and can see some people have been waiting a long time for their new cars.
I don't have a problem with this as I would rather change next year when the plate changes to 16, so nearly 6 months, but is the wait list now this long anyway or a bit shorter? Anyone ordered recently and been told how long they got to wait? I need to get sell my current car first but I want to wait a few months before doing that. I just don't want to order a new Polo in December or January and be told the wait is until June/July next year so I should have ordered sooner.

The official lead times are 3 months for 3dr cars and 5 months for 5dr cars, they also suggest that DSG gearboxes can take a bit longer, but they are all taken with a pinch of salt.
I'm sure some people who's cars were ready in August waited and got them registered on the 65 plates so maybe if you ordered now and it was delivered sooner you could postpone is being registered until the 16 plates.

Oh right, since I want a 5 door and DSG could well be a wait until well into next year then.

Do VW only make a few Polo GTI's a month!
It seems like it doesnt it! I don't know whether the supply issues are just for the GTI or for all their cars?
I've got a provisional build date of first week October so delivery should be approx 3 months from when I ordered it (3dr manual), so that's about normal but since it's only provisional, time will tell if they can stick to that.
I'd have a word with your dealer and see what they say.

I ordered on 18th of March 2015 and took delivery 10th July.
They both came ready to plug and play, First thing I did was connected my phone and after the initial setup of about 30 seconds was up and running for carplay.
My understanding is that it is only MIB2 units that have it.

Lovely wee car and the Oryx White is a stunning colour.

How much of a difference is the oryx to the standard? Photos on the Internet don't really show it to well

In the flesh it's stunning. Lots of flake in the paint. Changes between silver, gold, light blue and white depending on the sun light. Impossible to photograph though.
I have an A3 saloon in Glacier White (Metallic) and the Oryx is a far nicer colour.
