Keith you quote "Flat Tyre Indicator £35" Why you say that? Does it quote the actual psi or does it just tell you you have a flat when your car's rumbling along with masses of black smoke in the rear view mirror?

May still add it to my order.

What deliver time have you been given for your car?

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner...

What deliver time have you been given for your car?

Just of the Phone from the Stealer..

No Build week yet, The Order is amongst a list the dealer has already.  Mine was a modified pre-existing dealer order.  Still waiting for a "confirmed Order" from VW, no sign of a commission number or build week as yet.

I'm sure that means it's sat waiting an order allocation if ever there was one, but I could be wrong.  When I said I wanted it for the 61 plate in September the salesman looked at me funny and said it would be with them sooner.  And depending on the time difference may have to hand the keys over before.  (Could be the victim of sales speak) as I did go looking for a garage who would agree they had GTD allocation left.  They will say anything if they don;t have to write it down to secure an order this race of sales-persons. (Bloody hell I'm being PC on a Friday),

I need a FCUKing beer.

61 Plate GTD 5dr, Shadow Blue, 18" Charleston's, Flat Tyre Indicator, Cruise Control, Bi-xenon (With Dynamic Curve), Storage Pack, Winter Pack and RCD 510.

My dealer called me today, my GTD is going into production next week (a week earlier than originally allocated). Ordered 10 weeks ago.

They should definitely have a commission number at this stage.

Time to get your Wolfsburg factory visit sorted out. Be there at the birth- amazing experience. :smiley:

Yeah, looks like I might miss out on the week 22 changes alright. Would have liked the rear LED numberplate bulbs, other than that I'm not fussed. A trip to Wolfsburg would indeed be cool!  :laugh:
