I placed my Golf R order in late June and have been told the car won't arrive until late January - early February. I was initially told the car would be delivered in November 2010.

Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before.
We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

My dealer contacted me yesterday saying that the car is finally off the production line! However, they don't know which boat it will be on, but gave me an NADCON screenshot with 'Departure Port of Shipment' - 15/11/10 and 'Arrival at final Destination' (Melbourne) - 27/12/10. Looks like a very late Christmas present, or maybe a New Year's resolutionShould I bug my dealer for a VIN? Will they have that information on hand?
