I agree, I suppose this is when you have justify whether the savings over the local dealership is worthwhile!

At least I could call in on my way home from work and speak to them in person. I'm just thinking about the saving!

I'm also half tempted to leave a damning review on carwow seen as they are intent on reminding me to leave a review every other day. Maybe that will get their attention  :whistle:

Yes - but the local dealer can be just as bad - its just less stress to pay them a visit. Maybe you should just cancel and go with DtD :-)

Persistence prevails!

e-mail at half 8 last night, unique order number provided and scheduled for build week 21.

Now I can decrease work productivity even more with the use of the VW Tracker!

Hope that estimates wrong and you get BW22 and the upgrades - particularly the larger media screen.....

Me too, might add another option just to push it back a couple of weeks.

I've actually specced the Nav Pro as part of the Tech Pack. So screen would still be 8", would just be the newer version?

I think going off the majority of stories on here, that build week will be slightly optimistic!

Ah yes you are right - sorry I did not notice the spec details in your signature. Yes the BW estimates are normally optimistic!

I think I added the signature after your comment, just noticed it changes on all previous posts too!

Hopefully I'll lose a week somewhere and take advantage of the updated Nav Pro!

Anyway, my worries are at ease for now and I can get excited about joining the MK7 club!

Now, where's the link to Volkswagen tracker   :whistle:

Oh yes!

Previous two cars have been White and fancied a change so that was definitely out.

Wanted more of a colour than Black, Grey or Silver

Was torn between Night Blue or Tornado Red for a while then saw a TR GTD in the flesh and that swayed it!

Followed a Tornado Red GTD on the way home today, they do look very smart in the flesh.

Is your BW21 confirmed yet or is it still provisional?
