Title: Delivery
Post by: Porker911 on 06 May 2015, 23:09
Hi

I ordered my car start of March for scheduled delivery 1st week in June from dealer. I'm stuck on stage 2 awaiting build schedule on the Tracker, but the dealer is telling me having spoken to VW they are on schedule to deliver my car start of June.

Sound realistic to you guys, desperate to get it now.

Not a chance, sorry. If it doesn't even have a scheduled build week (tracker stage 3), it won't be getting built within 4 weeks from now, let alone built, shipped from Emden and delivered to the dealership.

As MH says - the very best you can hope for is eight weeks from now - and thats if the tracker changes to stage 3 tomorrow!!

Like others have said, your tracker will turn to "Build week confirmed". This happens 4 weeks before it is built.
So you will have at least, the time until it turns and then the 4 weeks before its built.
Being built only takes a couple of days so it will generally leave the factory on your "Build week".
It then has to catch a boat from Emden over to here and then be picked up from the port and transported to your dealer to be PDI'd and collected by you.
I'm sure someone on here had their car built and ready to collect within 7 days but that is extremely rare. 4 weeks seem to be about the average depending on what port the car comes into.
