Great, fantastic to hear so many positive comments from so many of you about the car.  Thanks for taking the time to reply.  Having had a 2.5 litre focus st in the past I eventually decided to trade it in for something a little more fuel efficient.  I've really missed the sound and feel of a petrol though so am excited about getting what seems to be an amazing mixture of performance and relative economy.  Just wishing it was a little closer to the uk like hastd2 - apparently it's waiting to be allocated to a ship.  So could well be some time yet.

Picking it up tomorrow, just over 2 weeks at Emden and a little over a week at Sheerness, not too bad.

Wow your lucky. My R BW 10 is still stuck at Emden.  Along with many others. Dealer told me that it's back logged at Port so effects what they send. Seems a lot worse than a yr ago at this time of yr. Crazy shipping times For vw

Sorry to hear that.  I've been reading the r build week thread a lot and there does seem to be some inconsistency in how long it takes for the cars to arrive.  Shame yours is taking so long, if it's any consolation I did put my initial order in September.

Yeah there seems to be no proper system of them being shipped with bw 11 cars already being delivered etc.
Reading the R forum is painful. Lol

BW 10, left the factory on 6th March and still on the dockside at Emden.

Does anyone know what is causing the delay?

Hi
There appears to be a lot of cars stuck bw 9,10,11 and even some 7.
Lots of conspiracy theory's as vw don't seem to have a sensible answer. Possible recalls or damage etc.
my Bw 11 Passat has arrived while my bw 10 R is stuck since before 16th March with no end in sight...lots on the R forum on this btw..
intresting to see what other cars are stuck..?

I have had similar issues & have been repeatedly fobbed off by Vindis about delivery of my car. Apparently it is now in a UK compound based on info I got yesterday.

How long should this really take? They say 2-3 weeks more? I mean really? Chuck some number plates on it & I'll sort the rest myself.

I have been waiting almost 6 months, yet only get feedback when I chase them. Fed up to be honest.
