Yet again, I'ma little with my response to the original thread...........
I ordered mine at the end of April 2010 and was finally delivered in early August 2010

I guess I'm one of the lucky ones  :cool:

It'll be worth the wait !

I was lucky as well, ordered February 2010 for expected September delivery. Came July 2010, something to do with a cancelled order meaning mine got an earlier build slot.

I wonder how much is VW and how much is dealers selling an allocation they don't have.

Welcome GTI-J, try ordered Sept 09, delivered April 10, stolen next day, finally got car back July 10!! It was one hell of a wait but like the other forum regulars I have to say it was worth it. I spent 10 months looking out for GTI's & I still do it now. Read the thread "spotted", there ain't that many of us around! So when it does turn up u will be one of a very small, select (easy Mk5'ers) group of people. You will enjoy, trust me :cool:

You will indeed enjoy. I ordered mine late May 09 and it turned up 6 weeks later and I've grinned ever since.
Having said that I wouldn't wait ten months for one - that really is taking the p***
Colleague at work had to wait a good 6 months for an Octavia VRs with the 210 petrol engine. He got it as a DSG in that Skoda blue (a bit like the R32 blue) and it looks well smart to me. But 6 months is a long wait for that too so it must be a VW Group thing.

A humour deficit par extraordinaire. :sad:

Yes, your powder does wash whiter than white. Long may it last. Don't forget to use a fabric softener. :wink:

Ok the missus googled it and tells me it is a quote first used in Car Wash (1977). Before my time mate.

The actor was Antonio Fargas who also played Huggy Bear in Starsky and Hutch.
