Bedford. The dealer told me they use Grimsby port

I think it will be 3 weeks before I can pick it up. In other words - 1413 (Bank Holiday!) more "get ups" in the morning :)

I think my dealer said mine would be coming to Sunderland.  Would that be right?  Then presumably by transporter to Lanarkshire.

They should be starting to build it today!   :grin:

They use 3 ports in the UK so I guess Sunderland is the closest to your dealer.

It takes about 2h to build a car, so it can be anytime between now and Friday :) Of course the car will be touring the plant the whole day but the actual time someone puts something inside is about 2h. It's a really fast line...

I'm not sure if you've seen these but it's really cool  :laugh: especially the part when they stick TSI badge and I see GTI :)
