Hi All
Ordered my GTD on 15th March and the tracker is still reporting 'processing order'. Is this normal?!?
Thanks.
James.

If last year when I ordered my GTI is anything to go by, then yes it is. I know I was on the first order list for a new car and orders are quicker now. But three weeks from my personal experience is still early days. However some others with lower spec (configuration) may have had a different experience to me.

Hi mate, I ordered my GTD on the 14th February and its still with the factory. So 7 weeks and no word yet.
You get word roughly 4 weeks before its due to be built (confirmed build date) and then anything from 2 to 4 weeks after that for you to pick the car up.
With dealers giving an estimate of anything up to 20 weeks from order to delivery, I suppose that's well within it.
Did you order via a dealer or broker?
-
I second what p3asa says about time scales for orders and build times.
-
I ordered mine on 5th feb and it changed to bw confirmed only two days ago. Think you may have a bit of a wait yet
-
Looks like I shall have to be patient then, not my forte :sad:
-
Ha tell me about it mate, I've had a right moan on here last few weeks

I ordered about a week before you - A Mk 7 GTD 3 door and my build week was confirmed 2 weeks ago - mine should be getting build sometime this week :cool:
How much longer until I get my dirty mitts on it? We were originally told 17 weeks - which made it early June which we thought we could live with but I can't wait now!

I ordered via a dealer. Just dropped them an email, I don't hold out much hope but can't do any harm to 'remind' them of my order I suppose.

They should be able to give you a provisional build week but obviously this could move.
Or contact VW with your build number and they can give you a provisional one.
My dealer gave me week 22 but after a few weeks I tweeted VW and they gave me week 18.
But given we are just about to go into week 15 I reckon its slipped back from week 18.

I placed my order in Feb too and I've been told the car will here end May.

Waste of time asking for that - its just a guess (and normally a pretty bad one).
Main thing is to get an order number for the tracker.
-
The dealer has just contacted me and given me an estimated BW22. If it doesn't slip then it's looking likely approx 3 months from order to delivery, not too shabby for a GTD order.

About in line with me this gents, I ordered my R on the 10th Feb, Just had the order updated with a build week of the 4th May... I am getting a little excited now!!!

on the online tracker were any of the details every incorrect for any of you?
I ordered mine on Wednesday and have checked to see its down as a 6sp manual, when i ordered DSG
I raised it with the dealer, but its still showing as 6sp manual

Yes mate that doesn't sound right. Have you contacted them?
I'm sure someone on here documented from months ago something similar and the wrong gearbox had been ordered.

I contacted my salesman by email and he responded very quickly
Took the VW website 2-3 days to update, but its now showing DSG :)

G1t! :grin: I only got my 'with the factory' update about a week ago.

Lucky you :lipsrsealed:
My order was placed on 7th of February and I only got the "with factory" notification on the 2nd of April. Dealer checked this week for me and still no confirm BW even though their estimate was BW19, which now looks very unlikely :cry:
