Great. When did you place your order?

December orders are expected in April and Jan orders May or so.

Dad ordered his last month, expected in early Feb

Nice.. So he's getting a very late 09 plate then I imagine (already on its way).

Did he manage to select a few options?

All 2010 vehicles begin production in week 6 (2nd week of Feb).

elisiX, as we are both experiencing...

Congrats on the new purchase DubBoy, what are the specs?

[DubBoy]

Well....

-Leather Seats (heated)
-Sunroof
-Park Assist
-18" Detroits
-Sat Nav

They are all i can remember, and i think the rear camera comes with park assist?

The car is a 5dr in deep black.

Interesting...I ordered my GTI in late Nov, and stipulated that I wanted a 2010 build (seemed crazy not to, since it was a factory order) and my dealer advised me in the week before Christmas that it would be built in Week 2 or 3 of 2010, and arrive in country in early Apr.

My dealer told me something similar when I signed... But I called last week and he told me that I've allocated a Feb build as they didn't begin building in the new year until Feb...

Ok People, She has arrived:

We bought her from John Hughes VW from a salesman named Steve McFarlane. Really nice guy, no hassles.
We have basically as much options as we could get including the xenon lights which change the whole appearance of the car in my opinion.

Some crappy iPhone pics dad and i took when we picked it up today as well as a few nights ago when we unknowingly found it.

Nice! The boat carrying my GTI arrived Perth yesterday. It must discharge some GTIs there as well. The boat is on its way to Melbourne now.
