I reckon it's VW's Market Machine Gun, I reckon they continue to drip feed all markets but move round each market to have a push on it. Would make sense to say build enough for a big boat to the states, southern hemisphere etc...

And it's just The Gun's pointing at europe this month.

Either that or they over ordered on Carbon Grey paint....  :laugh:

Join the club, had an e-mail yesterday to say mine is sitting at Emden. I guess another 3/4 weeks till I actually take ownership which is likely to feel like an eternity !

Ah Grimsby, that's where Scott's docked...now expect your car to be at the dealers in the next 3-5 days, I found the transport company were quite quick but mine was from Sheerness, can't remember how long Scott's took but if I remember correctly his was at his dealers a day or 2 before mine...

The end is insight mate, happy days!

Got a phone call today from the dealer that suggests it will be next Thursday  :grin:

And I've got out of working away that weekend so I can now play with my new toy!  :grin:

However, the dealer asked if I could pay for the car on Friday so he can meet his sales targets, so I'm going to re-negotiate on a tank of fuel if that's the case.

I'm not sure I'd pay for a car in full until I'd actually received and checked it over.

That is my initial thought - I'm not so keen. However, I need to go down anyway to give them my private plate retention document, so will talk to him about it then.

That sounds like a right pain in the A hole, Dave esp as you've done them a massive favour by paying now to help there figures, the vouchers sound cool tho...

Just hope it can be sorted out satisfactory, but of course NAME AND SAME AWAY if it doesnt.. :wink:
