The exact words that the dealership gave me was 'your build is imminent' so if you really read between the lines we have no idea, but saying this to keep you happy :S

That's pretty shocking.

My dealer quoted late June and it gradually dropped to late May.
Took me emailing them to find the VIN and find out it was on the Torreador (Arrives Brisbane 5 May)

So there was still a lack onf information transfer but i got the opposite with the decreasing waiting time which is probably pretty standard as to no peeve off customers with extended waiting times.

They reply to your emails? Wow!

My MK6 TSI that is coming went from the end of May to the 29/4 (arriving at docks) It came forward by 4 weeks. Not long now for me.

So it does give me some small hope...

Yeah there is. My brother ordered his 3DR GTI with options 4 weeks after I did and my car is a wk10 build and his a wk14. So they must be running fairly on schedule.

They might just be giving themselves some room to move.
If oyu have ordered a lot of options it apparently takes extra time to get them all fitted and so it may delay shipping.

Then if any of the optios are dealer fitted, they might need to give themselves a bit more room to move.

You will probably end up with delivery in June as expected, but at least this way you end up happy that you got it on time rather than indiffernt that you got it on time or unhappy that you got it late.

My dealer just called today to let me know that my car has arrived! Delivery is on Thursday, can't wait!

[hcvo1]

Congrats to the two new proud owners this Thursday... and my wait continues...

Thanks hcvo1, I've waited 4 months for this baby, but I'm sure it's worth every single day of the wait =)
