New GTI + delivery

[barrywi]

Bangkok Highway transporter has left for Singapore but Pleiades Spirit is next to the car quay. Galaxy Ace is close and
heading for Port Elizabeth but going in circles at the moment. Maybe waiting for the other ship to load and disappear. No indications as to where either ship may be going yet.
One day my ship will come!

Just got an update from Andrew at my VW garage .
He says they have been told to tune into the VW hub tomorrow to be " talking about the actions VWUK and retailers can take to continue selling cars and providing customers with the experience they expect when buying a VW"
Note that " continue selling cars" comes before " providing customers...." Or am I being cynical.
He has promised to give me an update tomorrow after the broadcast to let you know what they say.
We are good friends and I have known him for many years so expect no bs.

Did you get any feedback from the VW broadcast Barry?

^ Haven't looked for Polo yet, but apparently Golf brochures and price lists changed yesterday - some options and models have changed in price, especially rear view camera.

No feedback yet but he may be off work. I will chase it up by email or call in next week.

Pleiades Spirit now off to Durban ....you are going the wrong way mate!

Galaxy Ace is now in dock so hopefully my/ our cars will be put on it. Nordic Ace will not be there intil 18th June, which is the next option.

The Polo brochure is now dated 06.06.18 -- not read it yet...….

Let's see what we've lost then, but still have the privilege of paying the same price

You mean online or actual printed brochures, which I prefer. VW told me they aren't printing brochures for their cars anymore, just viewable / downloadable online....

The Galaxy Ace has left port, heading for Vigo

Can't see any trace of the dynamic suspension on GTI/GTI+ spec in new brochure and pricelist. Prices on options look the same

See Galaxy Ace has departed Port Elizabeth and is heading for Spain so fingers crossed.

I have emailed VW to see if they can tell me if my car is on it. The timing is right and the ship is heading North not East. Not sure if they can tell me though.

I requested an update via online chat last week and the customer service agent confirmed that mine was on board 'Capricornus Leader' without me even asking which vessel it was on.

OK I will try that approach thanks
