So the Manual GTI and Clubsport are currently closed for order per the UK configurator, the R20 is permanently closing and the GTD and R are also now pausing meaning you can only order an auto GTI or GTE. Hard to believe there has now been production issues for 3 years and no sign of normalisation.

 Is just a UK issue?

Did they just close the orders on the R20 but just announce the exact same car but rebadged as the 333??
