Your missing my point. Whether its dealer consigned stock or ordered for a customer, the delivery times they quote are complete BS. Every month when you ring for an update on delivery the delivery is pushed out by a month. They have the carrot and we are the donkey.Originally posted by sVWatt View PostThis is dealer consigned stock. I had the choice of white TDI or grey TSI. I'm comfortable this is straight up.

Everyone here is guessing. The delivery date for these dealer consigned vehicles will depend on when these vehicles were ordered. And the only person that knows that is the dealer. When we know that comments can be made. So the thing to do is talk with the dealer and ask why the vehicles will be available in 4 mths when everyone else is waiting 9+. Ask whether the vehicles are consigned stock, etc. You can then decide if you trust the dealer's response.MY17 Tiguan 140TDI + DAP; Ruby Red; Notification of Birth 19 May'17; Emigration on Morning Celesta began 2 June'17; Entry into Australia 17 Jul'17; Citizenship obtained 8 Sep'17;

Agree. I ordered my Highline with DAP on 18 July and pick it up this week. Admittedly not the R-Line which seems to be the longest lead time, but Highlines also seem to be constrained.Originally posted by Cobwebs View PostEveryone here is guessing.

I have been receiving update emails from VW for 4 distinct vehicles, in different stages of build and shipping, across two dealerships. None of which are the one I pick up this week. Despite my best efforts the dealer was 'unable' to provide me a VIN number or any real tracking details until yesterday when it arrived in stock, as if by magic... just in time to meet the latest promised delivery date.
To be honest I only put $500 deposit down and was pretty sceptical that I would see a car before Christmas. I seriously considered placing an order for a Mazda CX-5 ex local stock, and be done with VW and my deposit next week.
My theory is VW are preventing wealthy dealerships from hoarding stock and may only be fulfililng firm customer orders for certain models (Highline, R-Line). The dealers response has been to order multiple vehicles against a single customer to keep their pipeline of 'stock' on the water.
To the best of my knowledge, there are still 4 identical vehicles still in transit with my name on them. So I'll be accepting bids

When you receive the e-mail it means it will go on board of a ship within like 1 or 2 weeks?
How long does the boat trip take? Probably 4-5 weeks again?
Mine is on transport to my dealership, it arrived last monday to the central location in The Netherlands and it should arrive to my local dealership any moment. Then they need an additional week to prepare the car and request a license plate.
Can't wait but I should be driving it home soon now.
