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,

  • 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.

        Ha - I didnt literary mean, same 'boat' but since you asked.. I am not sure yet. I have asked for the sales rep to email me the VIN so I will find out very soon...

        Kiles - shame that you have been delayed so long.. did they mention why?
        I find it so strange that some people are delayed and some arent.. i have read many 'theories' but am still not convinced..

                I was thinking that one too I was going to try and get around the other side, but the guys who were leaving for the day were giving me strange looks so I thought I leave it at that. I'll have soon anyway!

                    • 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 resolution Should I bug my dealer for a VIN? Will they have that information on hand?

                            Shakey - Dermot suggested the current turnaround is approx. 10 days ..... I would assume that is actaul & not business! Hopefully you might be pleasantly suprised!

                                Hey mate mine finished production on the 29/10/2010 as recorded on the NADCON screendump I recieved but didn't have any shipment details. I have the VIN but so far it hasn't come up when checking the tracking website. Are you sure the ship details are correct as going off the the tracking sites schedule for Melbourne I can't see a ship leaving or getting in on those dates you mention. Looks like I have missed the AIDA and well be on either the Talisman or Don Quijote arriving 2/1/2011 and 30/12/2010 respectively.
