Any serious suggestions on how i can aproach my case worker at VW about the dealer not doing anything with the car for the past week?

I think you've got to be honest. Surely they'll manage to get some sort of compensation for everything you've been through.

For what it's worth mate, I had confirmation this morning that my first service will be FOC in consideration of the chasing around I had to get done last week to get my p/x car MOT'd and venting my frustration as a result....

Lovely lovely motor mate. Was surprised you had the choice of number plates- I didn't get a say when I the dealer spoke to me this week. I was talking to the guy who did the MOT on my p/x car the other day and he reckoned they stopped doing that now ?

Your dealer pulled out all the stops by the sounds of things- you've got a good one there  :smiley:

Thanks matee, lets just get to midday tomorrow and drive it away all shipshape.  The dealer group is Caffyns, theyre quite a large chain throughout Sussex, covering numerous brands such as Volvo, Audi and VW. They were unaffected by the DVLA strike as well, my salesbloke said they have a direct link into the DVLA database.

Snoops,

You said that it was a Southern based dealer that you were buying from.  I really hope its not Caffyns, but if it is, i seem to have a good rapport going with not only my sales bloke, but the branch manager.  So if it is Caffyns, let me know and I can say "My mates ordered a GTI from you and......"

I'd understand if it was Caffyns at Hove.  I've had issues with them before as well when my mum bought her Lupo from them a few years back.  A shoddy place.

I'd say Wayward rather than Wayside!
Not long now for you.
You have probably had the worst treatment of anyone on this forum.
Hang in there.
All the best.

As someone who gave up ages ago, I have the utmost respect for Snoopy's hanging on in there, and really hope you finally get the car (and the compo) you deserve!!

Mk5 R32 instead.....and change too:)
