German dealers already have cars, and so do some owners.

I think later this week, we will have build weeks.

Was watching TV and it goes to the adverts so I get on with a bit of my new project when suddenly I hear:

"GTI IS BACK!"

Huh?  I look up expecting to see the first ad and.... WHAT? Peugeot?  FFS this is getting ridiculous.

Had a chat with my dealer today. Still can't understand why my order for a standard GTD white 3dr has been given a build week of 32...neither can they but its true. I ordered early to no ovail.  She did say that GTI's will arrive much sooner and they have 3 black GTI's arriving very soon. Anyone else going with Stoke vw?

Was there not a VW bulletin put up on here a while ago that suggested the actual "on sale"date for the GTD was early August?  I've always been under the impression that the GTD was going to be after the GTI, so wasn't surprised my provisional build week was later than the GTI orders.

Varying dates have been bandied about from the press and mags but the on sale date was always June for the gtd according to the vw website.

Could be hope for us yet if Jersey is treated in the same way as mainland UK, rather than like Ireland (who are already having theirs built (admittedly at greater cost and poorer standard spec).
Whey ya bugger! It's finally arrived after an 8 month wait....

28th July, that's on the cusp of "do I pick it up now or ask the dealer to keep it until Sept 1st?".
