Hopefully I'm wrong Snoopy but the same dealer that told me about VW taking the hit for the VW increase way back in September also told me that in general if your car has a build week of 49 or greater then it won't be completed until after the New Year!!
Great a car built after the christmas party that they will not remember were they got upto after new year and miss stuff or just throw it together. Typical.
I would rather have week1 or 2 Im actually not that bothered if they want to start it after new year if i don't get charged anymore money. Its not like im going to have any decent weather to enjoy it. But then its getting near March by that time. Not going to be a new reg long at this rate.
snoopy - hopefully they change the BW and you get it sooner and before xmas!
It was actually one of the conditions i laid down before i signed the order. They were a) the order would be before the price rise and at the old price, b) It arrived before the end of the year to avoid the tax rise.
Out of curiosity how late can you change your spec ie add something? as at this rate i may change my mind.
yeah they guaranteed me the old price and that they would take the hit on any increase in VAT when i ordered back on 17/08.
my dealer said if i wanted to change the spec, they can do it, but it would then have to go through the system and wouldnt be able to say whether it would get delayed further, but it seems pretty risky - so it all depends how bad you want your additional add-ons!
so it seems some from a few of us with BW48 have got confirmed status, and others have been delayed a few more weeks, its all so random and pot luck with allocations and with different dealers!
