Be aware chaps that the factory is shut for BWs 29-32 inclusive. So you may well get it built before then ie. 28 or after ie 33.

Thanks for reminding me Bud!!! :grin: This was exactly what I was afraid of... Week 30 is slam bang in the middle of refurb... I'm hoping mine is closer to the dealers original estimate of 28... It's gonna be a close call.

Would it be better for them to be built before or after the shutdown? The workers will either be really looking forward to a holiday or really fed up to be back at work!! :D

Those looking forward to their Holidays will be in the party mood and be "Drucking Funk"!!!.... and those returning from their Holidays will have partied themselves silly and still be "Butt Wasted!"....

So when my steering wheel is fitted upside down I'll know why!!!

 :grin: this will cheer you up then - I reckon it's BW28 for you as I'm confirmed for BW33 ie first week back and mines still processing on the tracker - so by that reasoning yours will be built before the shutdown as yours is confirmed on the tracker - lucky s0d!  :laugh:

Seriously though guys don't worry.
I've been on a couple of Wolfsburg visits and those people are so professional looking its unreal.
Totally calm and just look like they know exactly what they're doing.

A few bad haircuts mind.

Just be concerned your car isn't built on a Friday.
