GTI Build Dates - Anyone got one yet?

Mine too - is that all the BW33ers now in build (or even in transport for one lucky so and so)?

Excellent news! It seems all of us have changed to build in progress - a week late but at least it's moving now - a good way to start a Sunday morning!

Officially it isn't late, but a Sunday start is pushing it. Impressed that the tracker seems to update in real time, rather than waiting for the admin to update it on the Monday. Now to look at the shipping schedule for port of Tyne....

Is there a thread that I can go to to get ship information? And how do you find out the name of the ship that its on once it's built?

Port of Tyne for shipping info Mark but I don't think it's possible to know what ship it will be on unless your dealer knows.

Well it's not going to get on the "City of Amsterdam" tomorrow, listing only goes up to the 24th and no Emden origin ships listed before then for port of Tyne.

Do all cars come into the Port of Tyne then? Is there no port for us southerners?!

I would say Teesside and up, all the way up Scotland will be Port of Tyne.

Grimsby (and i'm guessing Felixstowe?) for everyone south of Teesside. If Felixstowe is a VW receiving port, I would guess anything south of Norwich would be supplied by Felixstowe. If not then Grimsby will do everything else.

No wonder I have to wait so long if it goes to Grimsby!

Haha!  For better or worse, I'm quite close to Grimsby on the correct side of the river (north bank!)
