Maybe something to do with them not closing the factory for their summer holiday as per usual!?!

You'll need to keep us up to date on its progress i.e. build date to delivery date.

I was told they sometimes run a bit ahead of themselves, but mine was supposed to be started on Monday.

Sounds as if they might be running a bit ahead.

Oooooooh, this is exciting!

Mines built and awaiting shipment. :laugh:

When I did the factory tour a few weeks ago they said they are making 2000 Golfs a day and the production line is working 24hrs, 5 days a week, they were just starting a Saturday shift as well so maybe they will be slighty ahead of schedule.

I saw a quite a few right hand drive GTIs being built or already built.

My dealer reckons 2 weeks for shipment.
Mk7 GTI. DBP, DCC, Winter pack. Mine since new, July 2013.
GTI no. 4. Golf no. 5.  VW no. 7.
