I will be getting a list together for all golf r's in the uk or cars on there way to dealers, tomorrow is the day.
Anyone else actually itching to get one? I am tempted with my employee discount : )

If I could decide on colour the order would be placed (deal dependent of course) :wink:

wow - 7k more than what i paid.... :shocked:
-
You are forgetting one big factor you don't have a golf r you have a gti?
How you getting on with it?
-
good thanks... does everything I need in the right sized package. still love the looks and the interior. performance is great in manual mode... D is a little sluggish but more relaxing/ economical and can always be overridden.
anyways, sorry hijacking your thread. looking forward to seeing more about the Golf R... not ruling out a change in a couple of years' time.... tho a 2nd hand RS4 would be more tempting! :cool:

Exactly ! Golf R or not for 7k more VW can jog right on :( it appears only the very fortunate who can afford that sort of money on a car will have them.
DAMM THEM :D

Definitely up there next wednesday, i'll see if i can get up before. I'm really not a fan if i'm honest but hey, that's just me.
-
Want to keep it subtle, but with a colour that will show off the contrasting black trim...might change my mind tho :laugh: Hoping it might be the best compromise :nerd:
Cheers
-
evo - any chance you can get prices?
-
Evo... your list only has 15 out of 20. Does that mean the other 5 have been sold, or is it just that you couldn't see them on Dialog?
I was just wondering how well they're selling.
I heard today they've sold out their initial 350 orders. If I was paying £30k+ for a car (which I am!!), I'd want to get it in my own spec rather than taking one off the shelf that doesn't have half the stuff I want.
I realise it saves a big waiting list.. but its a lot to spend on something thats not exactly what you want.

Silver :wink:
Will accentuate the black trim... but keep it subtle too. Thats my theory anyway - but then I picked the black 19" wheels, which everyone tells me won't be subtle :rolleyes:

there is 4 cars of the same spec rising blue 5 door manuals so list is short due to these, plus our r isn't listed on there as may well sell it tomorrow. I thinkist people are doing the same there is no incentive to take the ones out there as I wouldnt expect any to be offered with any discount so you might aswell order what you want. Not been puplished to us how many orders there have been but now they are out there the intrest is coming quite fast. People just calling from miles away to see what we have got.

evo - any chance you can get prices?
prices for what?
-
Prices for the 20 r's - are they all list at the moment?
-
Yes list I wouldn't expect to get anything off any of these cars certainly not going to get anything of a dealer unless they are stupid or very very very desperate you might get something off them if you made it attractive like taking one on pcp from them
-
the one i test drove isnt on there, 3dr black leather 19" and rcd510 is this cause it is registered ?
-
If it's registered it won't show on dialog also any cars that have been tagged to customers won't show as they are not available
-
Personally I'd jump at the chance of a physical car rather than a shot in the dark delivery date factory order as long as it had some of the spec I wanted.
Bits like rear camera, sensors, RNS or wheels can be added afterwards at any time you felt the need.
Changing paint colour might be a bit more involved :laugh: but I guess there's always vinyl wrap..... :grin:
-
Evo, can you tell me if Caffyns in Brighton are on the list to recieve one?
Waiting for a test drive whcih they have told me they are expecting end of jan.
Also if you work for VW can you tell me what the deal is if i have been given a week 9 build week? am i definatley going to get one? or have they oversold and i'll get one in the second batch.
i made the dealer do a screen print of my order so i have seen it!

From what I have got in front of me no they dont have one and neither do they have one on there way to them unless it is spoof customer tagged up............
If you have a scheduled build week for nine this is the first week of March just like a scirocco I have on order for a customer so you should see the car Early April. Until it is a confirmed build week it may fluctuate slightly only very rarely does a schduled builld week then go completely un scheduled. Then you are in a mess.
What spec have you ordered?
-
Hey thanks for that Evo.
I just called VW customer services and they told me i've been bumped to week 13! I still dont think its confirmed yet as i'm not sure they have confirmed any?!
Does that mean i wont see anything till end of april? Is it likely to get pushed further back?
I have rising blue, manual, acc and leather with 19"s in silver
My current lease Gti mk5 goes back on 11th april, which means i'm likely to be on foot for a month!
-
We certainly have not got any confirmed bw's for the r's we have on order I am sure some people on here have though.
Have a look at previous thread with august/sept/oct/nov orders.
-
Hey thanks for that Evo.

Here we go again... I feel for you!
-
Build week 6 cars are getting confirmed this week it seems, It was BW05 last week etc.
If i had cancelled my GTI order and theres time yet if they keep ignoring me :embarassed: then i would go get the Rising blue, Leather, Silver 19's, rcd 510 one listed. £33840 depending what dealer group its at that is :grin:
-
rjwojcik what do you mean here we go again?
is this a common theme?
-
Oh yes. :grin:
-
Oh God. How annoying.
I got bumped 4 weeks! and i'm still not confirmed.
This is going to get annoying. i hate waiting. and i hate being bumped.
i'm going to start making a fuss to make sure it doesn't happen again.
-
Confirmed only normally happens 4 to 5 weeks before the build week date. Before that they can move it about and they do depending on parts and as they often build in batches. These are set by the VW factory theres not alot you can do really.
-
holy...sh
so what is your confirmed bw now? 06?
how late is that in real terms?
-
Most BW06 are been confirmed this week. It was BW05 been confirmed last week etc, work on 2 to 3 weeks after that point to you go and collect. Im going to phone tomorrow and find if my BW06 GTI is confirmed or im moved again as i was told the computer system is updated on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
BW06 is week starting 8th Feb, so March delivery.
BW13 is week starting 29th mar, prob ~14th April - 26th April delivery.
-
he guys what is the VW service number you ring to find out about your build date , thanks :smiley:

It'll be on the VW website, but here it is (still got it on my mobile). Actually was gonna set up a short cut to it. 0800 0833 914. You'll also need to quote your commission number (which the dealer can give you).

Hi Gossa,
Did you get up to the dealers?
Cheers :cool:
-
Hi Wylie, yes I did but i was having a row at the time so I didn't get any pics and I aint going back. Car was in for simple warranty job, I expressly said not to clean the car and on collection I spotted they had and left it worse than it went in! Tw@ts.
-
No worries - hope they didn't swirl the car too badly :sick:
How do they stay in business when they can't follow simple instructions :angry:
Cheers
