Ordered a GTI

[ScottA]

Hi All,

I ordered a Golf GTI, order was placed on the system on 24th Sept and still waiting for it to be accepted  God knows how long it's going to be!!! but dunno whether to bother waiting or look for something else. Currently have an A3 2.0 TDI Black Edition and want to get rid of it soon!!

Specs:

3 door GTI, white, manual
18" Monza Shadows
Bi-Xenons
Cruise control
Dynaudio
Flat tyre indicator
Luxury pack
Multi function display colour screen
RCD 510

Decent discount .... but is it worth the wait .. been told 16 weeks after order is accepted, but no idea when it will be accepted, apparently dealer is looking for additional allocation to fulfill the order but I'm having a difficult time getting the truth

Cheers

Nice spec, you get leather, bluetooth and rear LED's as standard now i think which is great, i was looking at the specs on VW web the other day.

before your order goes through add bluetooth to it.

mine didn't have it and its the one thing i wish it came with and its a pain in the backside to retro fit as most of the interior has to come out!

Hope you get it quicker than that should be okay as its not DSG , but VW waiting times are a joke !! Nice spec too.

Well worth the wait imo! 4 months is nothing compared to some on here.

Cheers guys. Yeah they come with leather and bluetooth as standard now which saved a few quid. Just a bit gutted it hasn't been accepted yet ..... and the wait is 16 weeks from when the order is accepted, but no idea when it will be accepted, 1 and half months and counting so far!

Congrats. I remember when ordering mine. The following months wait will be painful but you have something great to look forward to.

oh yeah forgot the come with bluetooth as standard now. thats a good incentive plus the leather is good (though i love the tartan seats!)


you won't be disappointed with the car when you finally get it. I've had mine about 5 weeks now and I love it.

the wait times are a joke though. i got lucky and found mine as a cancelled order. the bloke ordered it in Jan and got tired of waiting so pulled out in August or September so i got it at pre price rise rate!

[bcarlin]

i think they should still give you the option if you want the tartan seats i hate leather

I ended up cancelling the order and placing it again at another dealer, wasted a month and a half because the lying ************* have no allocation!

But I have now been given a 4th week of 2012 build week, which will put it all just in time for a 1st March delivery. Man that's a long time away!
