      I had previously been to this website and placed my VIN number in. I was given the following info:

      Vessel: TARIFA Port of origin : PORT ELIZABETH

      Voyage : EE709-TFA Port of Destination : SYDNEY

      DISCHARGED SYDNEY 22/05/2007 09:15
      LOADED ON VESSEL PORT ELIZABETH 02/05/2007 20:15
      RECEIVED AT TERMINAL PORT ELIZABETH 01/05/2007 07:51
      BOOKED BREMEN 23/04/2007 17:04

      I also recieved an email this morning from VW telling me i could be recieving it next month, but not sure exactly. Wanted to get an exact date, so i know when i can sell my car.

      thanks

        Im so glad i didnt have to wait for mine....im not sure i could handle it...id book tickets overseas so i can go visit while its getting built

        I was lucky and know someone at VW Aus and was able to pick up one of the first ones in early 2005...so no wait at all...well 10 days anyway

          Just go a call from dealer saying my car has arrived in Perth , exactly 10 weeks since placing order. Has to go through some delivery stuff by Patricks and I could have it by next week or week after depending on how many cars are ahead of it.

          Was originally told late june/early July for delivery so I'm pretty happy that its arrived so soon, especially as I sold my WRX 2 weeks ago and I'm borrowing cars to get to work.

          Hopefully I can have some photos soon.

                    Although it's no where near as cool as yours - I too feel your pain. I was all go by my finance company now and then once I put down the deposit they told me they needed an extra 2.5G's from me . So I have a 13 day, 16 hours and 20 minutes untill I'll have the cleared funds to go and collect MY GTI.

                    How are you handling the final sleeps? Do you just close your eyes and drive in and out of your drive way in it like I do? It's doing my head in!

                      Not waiting for a GTI - but my Jetta. so an even longer travel time from mexico.. or maybe not.
                      So Im also waiting patiently and cooling my heels.. grrr ..

                      All you folks with early calls to pick up yr call. . congrats. . .
                      Im hoping somehow magically the dealer will ring and say .. oh hey , guess what, we found an identically specced car in space. .and it will be ready in several days time. heh heh. It's been known to happen i hear.
