I've sold my Golf, so car less now. Thankfully I can get by till Wednesday with no car. I have the kids in the bike trailer in the interim.
Tomorrow is d-day for my dealer.[emoji95] If he doesn't come up with a car for me through his dodgy deal, I'm cancelling my order....SOLD 2006 VW Golf Comfortline 1.9TDI | DSG | Metallic Grey | Stock

Ordered (Mid-sept 2014): Metal grey Octavia RS TSI hatch (MY15) | DSG |18" black pack | sunroof | tech pack | comfort pack
yeah I was told delivery around March-April.
Today they told me provisional week 16.. + 10 weeks for shipping, meaning around early July.. then it would be close to ..10 months!?!
I hope your dealer can really do some magic..Last edited by techdave; 08-12-2014, 10:34 PM.Ordered (Mid-sept 2014 / Picked up, end of April 2015): Metal grey Octavia RS TSI hatch (MY15) | DSG |18" black pack | sunroof | tech pack | comfort pack

OK, so, I have been given a build week (49 day 4) and a VIN number!!!!!! ;whoooohooo. Ordered Oct 14, Dec 8 build date with VIN number. Maybe I'll get it Feb or March 15!!! The dealer ordered their own car 2 months before mine and STILL haven't got a build week.... hahaha. LOOKS LIKE I FLUKED IT..Last edited by spookya; 09-12-2014, 07:27 PM.

Might be. I ordered a sunroof, and my ambition plus is over 7 months..... Hopefully get it by Friday/sat. Assuming these bloody storms don't ruin it!2014 Skoda Ambition Plus 103TSI candy white wagon, 6sp Manual, Tech pack, Panoramic Sunroof, 18's, Colour Maxidot, Comfort BT

Not yet. Still waiting on Patrick's to deliver car to the dealer. It showed as 'despatched' yesterday morning, but hadn't arrived as of yesterday arvo. Considering Brisbane to the GC is a 1-1.5hr drive, that's a hell of a detour it's made..... Fingers crossed the storms didn't get it while in transit.....
Dealer has been great, but man no one had any sense of urgency. Considering the car was released and requested last Thursday, that's a pretty piss poor turn around for such a short distance. I really need the invoice (supplied when car arrives at dealer and details confirmed) today in order to give the bank a chance to process the loan and pay it, so I could collect Saturday.... In other words, I'm not confident of collecting it this week, so yet another week rolls by, without the car, that's been in country for a month now.
These c*nts couldn't organise a root in a brothel....
Edit: so dealer had been excellent and chasing it, but everyone else is really dragging the chain....2014 Skoda Ambition Plus 103TSI candy white wagon, 6sp Manual, Tech pack, Panoramic Sunroof, 18's, Colour Maxidot, Comfort BT

Gcs have confirmed they have the car now, woohoo! Fingers crossed it gets pdi'd asap, so I can pick it up Friday instead of Saturday, and tuck it away at home, safe from storms. I really need about 2 days to detail/protect the car and fit all the accessories we have for it. I really want the dashcam going before we drive it too much.2014 Skoda Ambition Plus 103TSI candy white wagon, 6sp Manual, Tech pack, Panoramic Sunroof, 18's, Colour Maxidot, Comfort BT

I am guessing that GTR might possibly be aware of impending weather and may even have suggested the same to GCS.
Does your nomenclature (or is it 'nom de plume') offer some atmospheric influence up there? GTR needs it, if only for his sanity.
Edit: I was not quick enough, GTRs got it covered.Last edited by Gerrycan; 10-12-2014, 01:22 PM.

Thanks everyone. It's certainly been a long, long, long journey! Yes, aware of storms, hence why I've been pushing so hard to get the car. It's the only way I can guarantee that it won't get damaged by storms.2014 Skoda Ambition Plus 103TSI candy white wagon, 6sp Manual, Tech pack, Panoramic Sunroof, 18's, Colour Maxidot, Comfort BT
