1) ACC Adaptive chassis control
2) Xenons
3) Cruise control
4) Luxury pack
5) Sunroof
6) Tyre presure monitor
7) metallic paint.

Bold ones were on original order,


Well it was everything on the above list, well it was until today   Now its just 2 and 7 again.
I told him to hold off as we are in dispute over the VAT rise and who pays it.
I ordered in August and it seems some of the orders VW are paying the increase with conditions, others the dealer is picking up the bill. It seems my 'dealer' wants me to contact VW and see what they say, Then get it in writing.

Errr, no...

Unless you've actually contractually committed to this dealer, I'd politely tell him he won't be the beneficiary of the thick end of your £25k and walk away.

They can't be ar$ed to make one call on your behalf? That's terrible...

You really are getting the rough end of the stick, not only have you been messed around with your build week, but now they have the audacity to ask YOU to phone VW!

Their treatment of you smacks of gross disrespect and I reckon you should consider telling them where to go!! At the very least they ought to offer to pay your VAT increase.

Go get em man

If im truthful it nearly came to that today before i posted this. But then i though i loose £787.50 and they get the benefit of a build slot they can use to there advantage.
I still might do this yet im on the edge and i feel im getting nowere.

You shouldn't loose your £787.50 (assuming this is the deposit), as on the terms of sale, they would have agreed to deliver your car on a certain date (which I'm guessing has now passed),and if they haven't delivered it within 21 days of that date, you can write to them requesting the car is delivered within the next seven days, if they fail to do that as well, you can cancel the order and have your deposit returned.

This is in clause 3b and 4 of my terms of sale, i imagine yours would be them same.  You can tell I've thought about cancelling a few times. 

Still no confiirmed build date. I haven't even asked about the VAT issue.

All it says in the terms and conditions are
"All deposits are non refundable"
"we anticipate that your vehicle will be available for delivery by end Nov, early Dec subject to no factory delays"

All legal contracts are subject to the 'test of reasonableness'.

In my opinion, taking nearly £800 off you and not delivering the car after six months is not 'reasonable'.

At least you should be jumping up and down about the VAT issue, upgraded wheels or something that'll sweeten the deal?
