Title: Week 23?
Post by: Bobnaldo on 27 May 2008, 21:40
Hi

My Golf GTI is due to be built week 23, is that this week or next?

Any ideas how long after this it normally takes to take delivery? I've given up slightly on the dealers estimations.

Thank you

Rob

I think thats next week.

Mine was built week 17 and was delivered to the dealers in just under two weeks from the build date.

The wait is a killer but well worth it once you get to drive out of the dealers!  :grin:

Thank you, really can't wait.

I ordered it mid Feb and the wait has been an absolute killer, especially since I handed my car over in April.

I had to hire a Fiat Punto at the weekend and I think they forgot to put an engine in it.

Next week matey, mines week 21 and is currently in build, but the dealer in fairness to them have still quoted me another 4-5 weeks and that was a week last friday (16th of May) :cry:

I know the feeling, while waiting for mine I had to hire a car and ended up with a focus 1.6.  :sick:

you'll be pleased to hear I've already modded it before its built.

ordered R32 rear lights from the dealer which will be fitted before I collect the car, i know i've paid a premium but the wife will think it's standard that way.
