during the last bout of snow, it took 3 weks to get cars from the docks at Emden through to UK dealers - hope conditions are a bit more favourable.

depends which broker you are buying through - carfile always give you the option of collect from dealer or delivery to home/work address for no charge. The only time i did buy through the i elected to collect the car, so not sure whether the supplying dealership would drive the car to you or use a low loader.

Thanks, mate. It looks like VW are starting to catch up as my car was built a bit earlier than expected so fingers crossed yours will be started soon
