What deal did you get?

[Andych]

Ordered mine December and received confirmation last week that it has been built and is waiting to shipped. It is to arrive late april and will be ready for pick up mid may. Dealer also provided my with VIN and name of vessel.
$58K Candy White, DSG, Panoramic roof, Sat Nav, Dynaudio & Black Talladega's.

How did you get the Black Talladega's? It isn't an option so I am guessing the Dealer is going to do a swap with a Golf R when it comes in... Personally I am not a big fan of Black wheels on the CW... it just seems to look like an empty space.. but... it is your car and your preference... so what I think doesn't matter a fig....

Spot on Andych, they've got an order for a Golf R same time. They are going to swap them for me as the order for the Golf was for silvers and had my heart set on black wheels at the time. Plus the fact that it is not an option and wasn't going to cost me the 4K that another dealership told me(get via vw accessories) got me over the line.

It's been a bit difficult finding decent photos of CW with black Talladega's online so have been in two minds about it. Thought I would just do it and see how it turns out as i really love the black talladega's on the white Golf R. Guess will just have to wait and see. Will make sure to post photo on new Rocco rides thread.

That's good to know - assuming there was about a months gap in your ordering and my ordering (13/1/12).

Aside from actually knowing when the car is being built I need to look at getting rid of the 135 so I need to know it is on the water before starting the selling process as I don't want to be without the car for weeks but I would prefer to selling it for a higher price privately than complete the agreed trade (I have an opt out on the trade).

I'm also keen to see if my car is built before week 15. Apparently any minor model year changes are often introduced around week 15. We start week 10 tomorrow so there is a chance my car might be a week 15 build, though more likely a week 13-14 build I'm guessing.

It keeps me amused while waiting...........

Mac135... if your car was going to be a week 13 or 14 build... they would have that confirmed on Nadcon by now.... and it would only be a week before you have the Vin.

Thanks Andych, only guessing week 13/14 based on time taken to deliver from Germany to Australia. That would mean a further 12- 13 weeks post build to local arrival. I reckon that sounds about right. Will chase dealer tomorrow re Nadcon. Thanks for the info.

Does anybody know how often shipments are arriving in Australia? I'm guessing it's every 2 months as I've read a lot of posts predicting delivery in April then June then September. Can anyone confirm? Also, has anyone received their car ahead of schedule?

Silver looks more elegant. Black looks more aggressive.

Id take the black ones over the silver!

Thanks for the photo's ZIO. Will look much better with the panoramic roof and the black wheels as I am not to much of a fan of the Rocco without the panoramic roof. Gives me a bit of an idea, but can't wait to get it and see it in the flesh with black wheels.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the offset for the Rocco different to the Golf R? 41 for the Rocco compared to 51 for the Golf?
