Just as the title says. Whos getting their car a week on Monday??
Everything is looking good for me as the build/delivery process went quicker than expected. I know what my plate is going to be, although when i went to the dealers this morning they had made up the wrong plates :sad: apart from that the dealer has been brilliant.
Must admit the "10" plate looks a little strange though.
-
My dealer expects me to recieve information from him by telepathy and know whats going on but sadly im not that good at it. I may get my car at the start of the month or not, I think it may have been the atmospheric conditions caused by the snow storm in york that interupted our brain wave comunications of late.
-
Fingers crossed for everyone! Well worth the wait. :grin:

Hi Snoopy. What is the latest with your car? i think i read that it was built an awaiting shipment?
-
Its gone silent i blaim atmospheric conditions :grin:

Hoping to be collecting mine this coming week.
Figured I can save the 2.5% VAT or maybe take a few hundred lower if/when I sell it, either wayit`ll cost me a bit, but
mines being registered with my private plate anyway, so noone going to know the age when I`m driving round.

Went to the dealer today. My car's still at the dock in Germany waiting to come over here but fingers crossed it'll be here in time for first few days in March. I don't know the reg number yet but I presume that'll all be sorted once the car arrives in Blighty...
Good luck to all those playing the waiting game like me and are hoping they'll be driving their new GTIs' on 10 plates in just over a week's time.. :smiley: :smiley:

Been waiting since the 18th of August and I've been told if all goes well (Fat Chance) then I should be driving away in it on the 3rd of March. Good luck to all the guys in the same boat as me :cool:
-

Maybe I'm wrong but when the post was opened asking who is getting their car on the 1st of March I think the dude meant the post for the awaiting GTI owners. But please enjoy your Discovery :huh: :cool:
-

Just one week to go now......
-
I remember how excited I was when I picked mine up last July so I'm quite jealous of you all picking your new ones up.
7 months later, though, I still absolutely love getting in this car and driving it every morning so I wish you all all the best and enjoy your fantastic new cars.

I'm picking up my brand new Pearl Black GTI at 0900 Monday :laugh: :drool:
My horror story with the 'rejected' GTI, after 2 months of hell, is finally almost over. I even try and avoid driving it as I know it is going back.
BTW, I haven't really got on with the DSG box (a bit frustrating), so I'm so pleased I'm going back to manual :wink:

Mine's still at the docks.. it's going to get a birthday card at this rate.. what a complete joke. The could be my first and last VW if this is something you have to always put up with :angry: :angry:
-
Picking mine up at 11am tomorrow.
Hopefully they will have the correct registration on the car by now after getting the numbers mixed up and i've noticed some people haven't been getting the iPOD cable with the car, so hopefully that will be there too as i can't be bothered arguing :smiley:

Enjoy guys!

I've got some quick piccies, but how do you attach to a post :huh:
-
I use Photobucket, open an account, upload from your computer and then copy the IMG link from there to here. :nerd:
-
Cheers - I'll give that a go :wink:
-
Didn't pick my car up today but got my new Monza shadows fitted today mintage!!!!!!!!
Had 5 customers pick there cars up though................... Stress
-
Here's some quick piccies taken at the dealers so not that great. Will take better ones at the weekend once I have resin polished her up :smiley:
100% factory original this one, unlike the last one that went back today. BTW, the dealer is auctioning it off, so it won't be retailed, thank goodness :angry:
Decided to keep the standard 17" Monzas (as brand new wheels and tyres afterall) and decided the new VW Visions are a bit 'Fordish'. So the 18" Shadow Monzas stayed with the old car, as I didn't get a sensible offer after I missed out with Evo's last week :embarassed: I think the standard wheels look 100% fine and the ride quality is definitely slightly better. The 18"s do look better, but TBH it doesn't really bother me as it still looks like a proper GTI should. Comes down to personal preference............

Very nice matey :cool:, i know it's abit soon but how do ya find the ride? compared to the mk5.
-
I'm so jealous Mr Meister. I hope you enjoy the new car.
-
Nice car meister.
Picked mine up today at lucnhtime, unable to get a day off until wednesday so will put a better update on then, however very happy with the car so far, done about 80miles today :smiley:
Just one small thing, the steering wheel is slightly off centre when going in a straight line, had exactly the same problem when i picked my Mk5 up, turned out to be tracking but VW wouldn't authorise any warranty on it until it had 2000 miles on it hoping it would settle, but it didn't. probably the same problem this time, but hardly earth shattering

So there are advantages to the leather interior - you can always just wipe it off. The tartan cloth I expect is more absorbent thus simply wiping will not be enough...
