Golf mk8 / Re: GTI Clubsport delivery timescale

Well, I can tell you that I ordered the stock model, no optionals, mainly because I wanted to minimise the risk of delays. I guess I should've added a thing or two, given where we are now.

Hi
I ordered a Clubsport with Warmenau Diamond Cut wheels, pan roof and Oryx white in September and it was originally quoted as due into dealer early February. As yet I still don’t even have a build date confirmation. Dealer claims the delay is due to the wheels being unavailable? Not sure I actually believe that though. Had an email from dealer yesterday apologising for the delay but unable to even predict when the car may materialise?

I read another post recently about there being supply issues with Warmenau alloys (sorry, can’t remember which forum i read it on), so maybe your dealer’s being truthful.

Has anyone else been contacted regarding anything needing changed?

Spoke to my dealership again this morning, I was told that they have spoken to the VW Sales office and that there is no way to have the Warmenau black wheels with the PP. Looks like they have updated the configurator now to reflect this.

Suppose I missed out and they have stock issues, so will be going with the Estoril instead.

Yes, a clubsport. With pretty much every option except pan roof and head up display. I’ve been told my delay is due to the number of options I specified. However I’m not so sure. I can certainly see a scenario where they have pushed the ED50’s ahead of other orders.

Update on build week order date January 15th or see accepted 16th and build week commencing 20
Week 20 is the predicted week or is the confirmed one?

In a German forum I’ve read that Volkswagen will produce 2900 Edition 50 units. I assume that all these units will de produced in a small “time frame”. LHD and RHD versions probably are not produced in the same batch… Mine was ordered (at the dealer) in the 24th of February and according to my latest info it will be produced before yours…

I am guessing this is a prediction build week but vw customer service said it has been allocated build week 20, im just going to presume 1st week in June before I get it

Well, I ordered mine on 5th dec. Only last week did I get a build week which was 16. After throwing all my toys out of the pram with VW they are allegedly going to ‘prioritise it’…

Holds breath… :whistle:



What did you order a clubsport? And I am sure the edition 50’s are getting top priority and parts as they want to launch the 50th anniversary model in may so others (clubsports) will be pushed back

This online shop might be another option for you. They have loads of GTI accessories, merch, lifestyle stuff. I’ve bought a few bits off them in the past. Delivery cost was reasonable.

This online shop belongs to a dealer in Germany. It’s a good choice.
