i have one 
well until my parents nicked it for a 2 week hol down to devon.... here's hoping it comes back in one piece!!
Where in Devon are they? I'll keep my eyes out for it! Might nick your wheels too!!! (Only kidding on the last bit)
Back on topic, spoke to a mate briefly yesterday who is a purchaser for a large car fleet and he said he'd spoken to a contact of his who works for VW who said that for GTIs and Sciroccos you're looking at Feb/March delivery times if you order now. But they are going to step up production soon. I know that's similar to what we've seen on the forums before but these guys are well connected. My mate said that their firm are now having to buy VWs in from Ireland for their stock and upgrade the alarms to UK spec using aftermarket companies.
So that's a nice answer to the doubters from other parts of the forum who said nobody would want mk6s and they'd have no resale value - right now it may even be possible to make a small profit on one if you'd bought it at a discount! In six months time it could well be a very different story though.....
