What are you doing to get through the delivery wait?

[gavs]

So why is there a further 92 booked onto the tombarra, thought they might have got more on, they just hadn't updated yet...

[GTI JOE]

They did get more on...thing is, no one closed the bow door of the ship....so as they were loading cars in the stern, cars were falling off into the water at the bow...hehehe...sorry frostee and payno might be a slightly longer trip to OZ waiting for the currents to deliver your cars.

Did someone say they ordered an Ocean Blue colored Polo? LOL

[Sword_Dude]

I've been researching detailing and paint protection in the wait...I've pretty much done that now, so back to just waiting

[Smacca]

so back to just waiting

Waiting sucks ... Sigh ...

With the amount of reading & research I'm doing to pass the time, I'll know the GTI inside out before I even get it. Thank god for the internet

[Sword_Dude]

Yep Smacca, I hear you.

At least I've got a week 18 build so from the end of this month I can start boat watching like the guys on the tracking thread!!

I'm going slowly insane.
I ordered a 2011 77 TSI polo DSG Flash read with sports pack back in May. It was meant to arrive mid August but is now looking like September...

I sold my car the first day I advertised it so have been borrowing my sisters 2001 VW golf but I want my own car NNNOOOOWWWW (small tantrum).

[nugget1312]

Feeling your pain, but count yourself lucky..... I ordered in January and its due in September. I am going nuts but also driving everyone else insane as well. How many times a day can you check Track and Trace.............

[babs]

for me just not trying to think about it...but then my dealer called and advised me confirmed delivery by end of september. hehe not long to go

i just went onto the vw aust website to check out the e-brochure on the polo. listen to the audio.

Same story here. I feel as though I already know every inch of the car.

But other than looking at what mods are available for the Polo GTI here in SA, I'm Going slightly mad ! Lucky for me I ordered my car begining of June and the ETA for the ships arrival is 31/7/2011. So I should have my car by mid August.....Feels like FOREVER !!! I check the ships location like every hour or so. Even have that marine traffic app on my iphone...

Even i wasn't that bad and your's has half the distance to travel!

nuggett, you're lucky, imagne the poor people that ordered a gti in feb only to be told it will arrive in june..... the following year!

[nugget1312]

Good point Gavs, That probably would have been the end for me.....

[Smacca]

imagne the poor people that ordered a gti in feb only to be told it will arrive in june..... the following year!

Whoa, whoa, hang on...

So people who ordered a GTI in Feb have actually been told delivery will be June 2012?

I ordered mine in mid Feb and my dealer is expecting a Feb 2012 delivery. As much as I want the car so badly, if mine is delayed till June, an 18 month wait just isn't worth it.

Wait, so you are actually waiting a year for you car? Damn, I would have walked out and buy something else or somewhere else.

[LarryRSA]

Why is it that you guys in Aus are having to wait sooooooooo Long for your cars ? 12 Months ? Geez. I was told the longest wait here would be 4 months. AT MOST !?!?!?!
