It's only on the boat for a day or two days at most. VW customer services can tell you which boat it is on and you can check shipping trackers to see where it is. Once it's in port it's about a week until delivery generally.

Delivery depends on if the dealer requests the transporter. Can take up to a fortnight sometimes.

Cheers for the info lads. Dealer said it would be on my drive in 5 wèeks. That was a week ago. So your info seems spot on. Had to wait 12 weeks for my previous Gti in 2011, so 5 weeks is nothing

Yes still from Emden. 5 weeks seems an awful long time if it's already on the boat.

Went in a couple of years ago to test drive an R and GTi pp. Salesman was friendly and helpful but the sales manager was a bit of an a4se. Wasn't interested in the slightest in any deals so I bought from Northallerton instead.
